It's not doing anything. It doesn't power up.

I called them back at 5pm to be told that they'd been in a meeting all afternoon and won't be able to talk to me until tomorrow. It's gonna have to be first thing as I'm heading up to Nottingham at lunchtime.

I'm a big believer in giving people to correct their mistakes. Companies are, after all, staffed by human beings who are prone to errors every now and again. Obviously, I'd prefer it if they got it right first time, but to me the best measure of a company's customer service is how they deal with a problem when it arises.

In this case, it's annoying because they've been given the opportunity to put it right and they just haven't taken it. I actually e-mailed them at the weekend to tell them that the product they'd sent me was not working, but they chose not to get in touch. I had to give them a call at lunchtime.

I know that the upshot is going to be that I put it back in the box and send it back to them, which we could have established at 9am this morning without my needing to stay in all day waiting for a call from their technical support people which was never going to come.

They now say I'm gonna get a call between 9 and 9.30 tomorrow morning and the conversation (assuming it ever happens) is gonna go something like this:

Tech Support: Good morning sir. First up, plug the computer in and press the power button.
JDK: Okay. Done that.
Tech Support: Right. What happened?
JDK: Nothing.
Tech Support: Oh. You'd better send it back to us then...

All good answers, but I was leaning toward not paying her. This is why I don't have a night job in a comedy club. I'll just go back to my corner now.....  confuse

Kinda. The initial problem has been fixed, but now it has some dodgy RAM, I think. I'm still diagnosing.
