Have now spoken with three different people from India whose command of the English language is limited at best. I purchased a computer for my business in March of this year. Had the same problem since day one. Sometimes it loads windows sometimes it get "stuck" at the dell logo. Requested replacement from day 1. Tech support "assured" me that they could fix it over the phone. Three months they have determined they cannot fix it over the phone and it must send it back to repair (approx 3 weeks). Requested them to replace the computer, was told that "they don't do that". Then I was told only if in the first thirty days. Asked if I have had the same problem since day one and and still today made a difference. The response was "NO". I then requested to speak with a supervisor and was told "that would not happen and that the supervisor , if they spoke with me would tell me the same thing". I asked directly "are you refusing to connect me to a supervisor?". I was told yes . I demanded to speak with a supervisor and requested their name. Was told to hold for a moment. 5 min. later they came back on the line, asked if I was still there and wished to speak with a supervisor. I stated yes and was told it could be a while as the supervisor was "tied up with another irate customer (that was great to know)." I was on hold 27 minutes for the supervisor, with them checking twice to inquire if I was still on the line and still wished to speak with the supervisor (seems like they were hoping that I would give up). Michael the Supervisor, which I am certain was not his name, was such that it created yet another creditably issue. Michael proceeded to tell me that he was familiar with the situation, and that their was nothing that he would or could do. I asked to speak with his supervisor of which I was informed "that he did not have one", and that was not the company policy. I requested clarification of that point was told "you heard me". I then asked him what exactly he could do for me, he repeated "nothing. I asked what the company policy was if I was still not satisfied. He respond he "might" be able to escalate it to the resolution team for review. I asked how do I contact them and was told, "you do not" they will contact you after reviewing the issue usually within 36 to 48 hours. I was contacted by the resolution team (from India) and they reviewed the issue and that it was my problem as the warranty clearly states they will only refund or replace with the first thirty days. Guess my mistake was not requesting an immediate refund. He stated "exactly". His English was poor and difficult to follow resulting in my asking numerous times "what did you just say'. Of which he became defensive and rude. I asked whom was his supervisor and he responded with "that is none of your business and has nothing to do with the issue". I asked if he was telling me that I could not speak with his supervisor. He responded with "absolutely correct". I asked to be contacted from someone within the United States, he stated he could not do that". I requested he could not or would not , he replied will not happen take your choice. I asked if there was any other alternatives to resolve this. He replied send the computer to us and we will fix it, "anything else is your problem". It seems intentional to delay my request for replacement until outside of the thirty day window. It seems deliberate to have customer service folks that barely speak English. And they obviously know the language because they understand exactly what you are saying. And it seems by design to prevent you from connecting to anyone within the United States and or making a complaint directly to anyone within the US. And it appears that they hope to wear you down (4+ hours) so that you will "just go away". I cannot imagine the Michael Dell would run his company this way. Is this the culture and policy of Dell going forward?????
