Delayed Replacement System

I have been a long time Dell customer in both my professional career and my personal computing needs, however that may be over. I have been without my system covered with Premium Support for 30 days and I have wasted time calling and emailing Premium Support for status information.

  1. I contacted Premium Support on December 22, 2021 with an issue with the computer display. I was told that a part would be shipped and a on-site repair would be dispatched within a few days.
  2. Premium Support communicated that the part was not available and the repair dispatch was closed.
  3. I received an email on January 4th offering a replacement refurbished system with an ETA – 5-10 days
  4. I have contacted Premium Support be telephone and email to determine the status of the system shipment 17 time... no status provided.
  5. My emails asking for status have been ignored
  6. My phone calls to Premium Support tell me that the replacement systems are handled by another department and so Premium Support does not know the status or how to resolve.
  7. In talking to a Premium Support Manager on January 11th, I was told that she would investigate/expediate and send me a status in 24-48 hours… no email
  8. So, in summary no calls or emails from Premium Support or any other Dell representatives since January 4, 2022

Another interesting fact is that I can order a refurbished system from the Dell website and receive the system in 3-5 business days and next business day with an additional shipping charge. What about a long time Dell customer?  

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    • I also encountered the same problem, the dell customer service kept asking me to wait, I waited for almost two months, has your problem been solved?

    My issue was resolved after 41 agonizing days. There is a disconnect between Dell Support and the Dell Replacement team and it is disappointing that the communications from Dell Support is so poor. Keep asking for status and hopefully they can get your issue resolved.

    It is really hard not to give up. I'm glad to hear your situation got resolved. Like you said, I guess the only way to get it fixed is to keep asking for the status. 

    The support team has been rude and unhelpful. Very frustrating!
