Linus Tech Tips
We didn't notice at the time, but Dell shouldn't have asked us to send the system to the depot. They sold us an on-site warranty we didn't ask for :p

“and invoke not besides Allah, any that will neither profit you, nor hurt you, but if you did so, you shall certainly be one of the zalimun (polytheists and wrong doers). And if Allah touches you with hurt, there is none who can remove it but he, and if he intends any good for you, there is none who can repel his favour which he causes it to reach whosoever of his slaves he wills. And he is the Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.” (10:106-107)

I have a new found respect for HP. And Dell should really re-look at their call centre offshoring. 😐

The thing with Ibuypower is they hire people that are too smart they don’t know how to communicate with people that don’t know tech stuff
Pred 4 dneviHenry P
My thoughts exactly. This dude was talking with the expectation that she already was savvy. Wouldn't be a bad thing if it were for a more "computer nerd" company but with something like ibuypower you have to expect casual users.

Should’ve gotten the extended Dell warranty.

While watching this it reminds me of my experience with Alienware support- bought an X51 a long time ago and it arrived with terrible wifi signal. I spent a long time on support trying to figure out why it was so bad (not knowing much about desktops). After a long time on hold they sent out an engineer who spent a while looking at it and messing with settings etc. In the end he told me that due to the case being metal the wifi signal wasn’t reaching the PC, which was roughly 15 meters and maybe 1 interior wall away from the router. I wasn’t happy but accepted it and kept my 15m cable plugged in.. 2 months later I open the case and have a look around myself and find that the wifi chip has two tiny white cables connected.. one had come lose. Total waste of hours of time.. all because I didn’t know what I was looking for. Years later, the X51 is sat in a carrier bag under the stairs.. shame!

Pred 6 dneviPaul Mohr
I am currently helping someone buy a new computer. Considering the excellent support from maingear and the fact that the CEO actually posted in this comment section I am seriously considering telling them to give this company a look. Unfortunately I think they just want to go to best buy and pick one vs having one shipped. I also told them if they ordered all the parts from new egg and shipped it to me I would put it together for free if they paid the shipping to their house.

Dude this is actually happening to me right now. My gf bought a $3000 laptop 5 months ago. It won't turn on and has this exact post code. They are trying to send me a motherboard, but I have been waiting for 2 weeks! It's been a nightmare. I have a string of emails that would run around the block and have escalated to mangers, supervisors. I started spamming all their employees on linkedin and they're VP was the first person to message me back. I wish I was making this up

Nice indeed A++ for the last one :) Thanks for the video. Customer Support is also an ART and should be done only by those who have a Pasion and full understanding of computers so they can explain it easy to understand as in the last MAIN system. Two thumbs up and sadly your experience matches some of mine with Dell.

I used to be a tech at a medical device company. Working devices make money which is probably why we actually use mock devices and video calls to solve customer problems.
