Dell Financial Services
I paid for my Dell laptop in full this past May. I stretched my budget that month to do it, because I was sick of dealing with their customer service and the phone calls from their financial services (which came to 9, 10 times a day -- and that was only when my payments were current).
I got slapped with this bogus "Finance Charge" this past month, and I decided to pay it without complaint, because Dell's Customer Service is terrible, and I didn't want to have to deal with it. I would rather pay $64 for a fee IN ERROR than deal with the idiots they take from under the nearest bridge and sit in front of a phone.
I sent them a check for the finance charge that was erroneously credited to my name. Then the phone calls begin once again. They call four or five times a day, often three times in one hour, and the conversation goes the same way every single time:
Me: Hello?
Automated message: (not verbatim) This is a message from Dell Financial Services, notifying you of changes to your account. Please hold while we transfer you to a Quality Assurance Representative.
Real person: (extremely thick Indian accent) Hello, is this ____?
Me: Yeah.
Someone who is obviously still living in Mumbai: Hello, my name is Bob Smith with Dell Financial Services; how are you today?
Me: Fine.
(Bob hangs up.)
Is this their way of thanking me for paying them $64 when I didn't have to? Or is it that they want me to know how much they appreciate the fact that I bought my new laptop with them instead of getting something from Apple that would be worth more than my car, and THEN paying the balance off in full?

Product Service
If you are looking for a good reliable system and a company that stands by its products and believes in its quality of service to customers, dont go to DELL. I purchased my laptop under nine months ago. In that nine months I have had to send it in 3 times and have a Tech come to my home. To this day the problems have never been repaired. Do yourself a favor and avaoid the headache which will come with the purchase of a DELL product. I use to be a proud supporter of DELL. Today, I wouldnt take one if I won it or it was given to me. My bitterness is because of the situation I have dealt with for the past nine months and still do not have a working computer which I have already paid for.

Terrible experience
I ordered a computer from Dell on 5/17. This date was then set back 3 times the last being to 6/26. I talked to a customer service rep after the second delay. This person was obviously a foreigner and a bit hard to understand. All of his answers were canned, like he was reading them. the words were the same every time it was repeated. It was obvious that all he knew was what he was reading on a screen. He said the computer was in such demand that production could not keep up. Very hard to believe but even if true does not explain 3 delays. Is their production projection that bad? Several calls to service center after learning of 3rd delay netted same thing. Service rep and manager could not speak English very well. Read canned answers. You can't talk to anyone who can give you an educated answer. I canceled the order and will never use Dell again.

Dell sucks
I purchased a laptop that has never worked properly. They never told me that there was an adapter or battery pack that had been recalled. after trying to get someone to help me for months and months...they led me on and then the warranty was up and they charged me $76 for an adapter that will not stay in my computer. I've tried it in other computers that are the same model number etc. and they won't stay in any of them. I sent it back and was told there had been complaints and they sent me another one and it does the same thing. I have tried for over a year to get a phone number for someone in Texas headquarters and keep getting India...SHAME ON THEM. Now they want to charge me for another adapter and it's only been 2 months. DELL SUCKS!

No cust. service
Computer shoppers interested in customer service and support and expecting it to be good should be wary of Dell systems. This is an example of a company whose outsourcing for services in the global marketplace has in my opinion ruined its servicability to it's customer in North America. Their response to my technical issues and a problem with sales were not completed in what I would expect to be a timely manner. Expect greater than one hour waiting times on the phone, shuffling of your call through numerous people and sheer frustration on your end! Case in point, Dell laptop crashes, needs several technical advisers to assist in reinstalling all software from start; advisor recommends expensive $249 anti virus software which is sold over the phone and sent via mail for installation. After realizing during install that it was sent for the incorrect windows operating system, Dell customer support refuses to take software back and send correct version (never mind the advisor had to know what system was being used during the reinstall during technical support). Despite calls back and forth at this point because we've been working this issue for almost a month now I'm starting to get quoted a 21 day rule for returns (ironic how we tried to resolve it way before then). This was the 5th computer from Dell and it will be the last. Such a shame to see what was once a once good company for me to deal with appear to be run into the ground. My faith is completely lost in the ability of this company to resolve my issue. I don't expect any response from one of their customer service reps other than something to the effect of "We're sorry and understand your problem, unfortunately there seems to be nothing we can do to help resolve your issue at this time". Save the lip service, I'll do my talking on my next purchase which won't be a Dell Dude! RE order number 984340789.

Highly disgusted
I ordered my Dell Inspiron 1525 notebook on the 1st of September, with the expected estimated arrival date of September 23. Although I wasn’t thrilled with waiting a couple days for the computer to arrive, I agreed, under the impression that it would be delivered within that reasonable time frame. I ordered the laptop for school and work, in addition to moving at the end of November, so this was a time sensitive order. I was notified the 21st of September (the day the laptop was supposed to ship) that the laptop’s shipment date would be postponed to the 21st of October, an entire month. I called Dell customer service and after explaining that I needed the laptop as soon as possible, was told that in efforts to make me happy they would be willing to give me a $25 gift certificate. I was told that the delay was caused by Hurricane Ike and some parts wouldn’t be available until a later time. Upon the 21st of October I was called and told that my laptop would be postponed yet again, for another month and would maybe ship to me on the 21st of November. Of course I will be in the process of moving, if not already moved, by that time. I called Dell, inquiring as to why it was postponed again. I was told that there were unforeseen circumstances. When I pressed as to why exactly, at this time Dell customer service told me they would transfer me, because they could only tell me was that it would be shipped November 21st. I was then hung up on. I called back, asking to speak to a supervisor and told that there was not one available. I asked to be placed on hold until one was. They refused and demanded I call back. I asked if they could call me back when the manager was available, Dell told me no. I told Dell I didn’t mind waiting for a supervisor or a manager. I was told it would take 45 minutes for someone to be available, I told them I didn’t mind. After convincing them to put me on hold, someone was available to speak with me within 5 minutes. The supervisor notified me that the color I had chosen for the laptop (Blossom) was unavailable. I asked why then, was I able to order it. She didn’t have an answer for me. I asked why I wasn’t told that the first time they postponed my order; she didn’t have an answer for me. I requested a discount (because I spent $25 on the blossom design, that now I wouldn’t have) she denied that. I asked for expedited shipping, and was denied. I asked to change the address for my shipment, and was denied. She then promptly tried to transfer me to someone else. I was on hold for twenty minutes before I hung up and called back. I spoke to a man who apparently heard I was calling for information and although I asked to speak directly to a manager, he refused and hung up on me, stating that it was “his right” to hang up on me if he wanted to. I called back, now highly agitated and spoke to a person who refused any discounts, refused to change my address information and strongly suggested that I cancel my order. Let me make myself clear, Dell has already taken my money, the laptop is paid for. The shipment date would be more than 60 days from the time that I ordered the laptop. The $25 gift certificate was only available online and only available on non-discounted prices, and I had to pay shipping and taxes. Dell, in the end, got more money out of me. I only agreed not to cancel the order and accept the gift certificate as long as the laptop was delivered in October. This was not the case. If Blossom pattern was not available, I should have been notified. I should have been waiting for information and given updates at the last minute. I should not be hung up on. I should not have been given attitude for a mistake that Dell committed. It’s rude, inconsiderate and a mark on the company. I only want what I paid for. I will not be suggesting Dell to any friends or family members. I am highly disgusted.

Unacceptable
I planned to use a laptop for my trip on July 9, so I go to dell.com to buy a laptop as usual on June 24. I checked out and made an immediate payment by my credit card. Confirmation email was sent right after that. But I keep calling Dell customer service (CS) to have them make sure everything on time. They promised to expedite my order and call me back to confirm on these issues, but a call back never happened. I was still patient and kept checking the website for order status. Suddenly, i received an email said that my order was delayed, completely nonsense. I called them right away but receive a horrible experience. I call directly to the small business department, but they keep holding me with stupid music and pick up my call, verify info, ask for situation, then transfer to other people. They did that for about 4 representatives, repeating the same things, then finally hung up. I kept calling back, some of them behave really rude to customer. After I give them the service number for faster service, they transferred me right away without saying anything. The voice tone is completely not happy with me. That is unacceptable. That's for the service.
Here for the order process. I ordered it on June 24, with expectation to have it in hands on the beginning of July. But the estimated date for delivery is on July 17th. Can you imagine that? I don't know what they do in such that long time, 24 days for an order. I always bought things online and it took about a week to be delivered. I can promise and recommend to everyone that never ever do business with DELL until they get improved on customer service and order process procedure.
