Corsair support
Just wondering what the consensus on corsairs support was.
I am at the end of my tether with them as it seems they are deliberately ignoring me.
Back in August I returned a pack of 3 sticks of RAM, one of which was faulty. They knew before hand what RAM it was so I was quite disappointed when they wrote to me saying that they didn't have any of that particular RAM in stock.
Given that they knew what RAM it was before they asked me to return it, why couldn't they have checked first?
Then I wouldn't have had to return it and wouldn't have spent the last 5 or 6 weeks running my DAW on half the RAM.
So, they offered me the choice of a refund which they claimed would be £29, minus a 10% usage fee deducted from the refund for each year so in effect I would get a refund of £14 since I bought it in 2010 so I said no thanks to the refund.
The cheapest I have seen a new set here in the UK is between £54 & £78 so I asked if they could just return the RAM and forgo the refund. They agreed and on the 7th of September said they would send it back to me.
A week went by and nothing in the post and no email saying my RAM had been dispatched, so I email them to let them know that I hadn't received it and to ask if it had even been dispatched.
Nothing, no reply (previously replies took 3 or 4 days) I have emailed them 4 times since and have had no reply and will probably have to buy some 2nd hand RAM on eBay.
Corsair don't seem to have a UK phone number or a complaints procedure so I really don't know what to do but running my DAW on 6gb of RAM is horrible.
Anyone got any suggestions?
I think I'm going to have to buy a pack 3 "used" sticks on ebay for around £34 but I'm disgusted with corsair as essentially they have stolen the RAM that I returned in good faith and if there was a way I could legally force them to pay my costs then I'd jump at it.
Anyway, just wondering if others on here have had good or bad response from corsair.
End of rant
Cheers
Steve
