Review: I sent my grand son tablet to Coby Electronics on June [redacted], I was told it would be 4-6 weeks before they ship it back. I called back 8 weeks later and was told that they received it but have not been fixed because the repair dept moved to California. I called back and there is no longer an answer to the number I was given or and answer to the corp office. I paid 139.00 for this item and sent them a cashier check for 55.00 for the repairs.Desired Settlement: I would like a refund for the item that I sent and a refund of 55.00 that I sent them the name of the item is Tablet MID8048 the cost of this item in 139.00 I also sent them a copy of the receipt from where it was purchased

Review: I purchased a Coby tablet model MID1042 Serial#[redacted] on August **, 2012. It worked for about 5 or 6 months then we had issues with charging unit and USB jack. I called the toll free number ###-###-####. I was asked what the issue was and directed to Technical Support. I spoke with a [redacted] whom explained to me that I should package up the tablet and mail it to Coby Returns/Tablets [redacted]. I needed to include a detail of the problem, my full mailing address for return, a money order/cashiers check for $15.00 for return postage, phone number and copy of receipt. Which was all enclosed. They also said it was a good idea to have tracking, insurance and have the package signed for at time of delivery. Here is where the big problem begins. The warranty is only good for 1 year and will be up in a few weeks. As of now, my package could not be delivered because the address is not known and a change if address was given at the postal service. I shipped it out on 7/**/2013 and 7/**/2013 inGeorgia said it was undeliverable. I assumed it would be sent back to me but instead disappeared. I called the number for Coby that I used before but now doesn't answer just directs to there website. Went there no other phone numbers available so I tried contacting through email. No response. Then I tried using the contacts name from above and emailed him. No response. Postal service came back to me that my package is now in Carson City, CA . I said Why? They said that was a forwarding address but would not accept or respond to my package. I have researched ever possible outlet to find a phone number in which I could actually speak to someone but no luck. This tablet cost me $400.00 which I will be out because it is broken and it wouldn't be an use when returned. I would just like to be able to pick up the phone and speak with someone to get a correct address for it to be repaired. As its going my warranty will be up and no repairs will be made. I just don't understand how a business functions without a legitimate telephone number. Don't there customers matter.Desired Settlement: Repair or replace item that is not working. Have someone contact me personally. Have telephone numbers that work and real people behind them taking care of customers needs.

Review: I purchased a tablet for my daughter this Christmas. We have found it only connects to the wireless network if it is in the same room as our wireless router. We did reset our wireless network, and even deleted and recreated the wireless network, but it is no better. None of our other wireless devices have any issues connecting to the network.Desired Settlement: I would simply like the product to actually work as it should.

Review: I contacted Coby in May 2013 regarding a faulty charger port for the two Kyros tablets I purchased. I was emailed instructions on how and where to return my devices for replacement. I sent my tablets, return shipping, my issues, and insured my products to the address given. The address was Coby Returns/Tablet, [redacted]. I tracked the package and it was received in Carson, CA on June **, 2013. I have tried on numerous occasions to contact Coby regarding the return of my tablets to no avail. The warranty contact number ###-###-#### tells you to contact them at [redacted]. I have sent several emails as well as called the main headquarters in NY. I want my money for the tablets plus the return shipping costs and insurance for my tabletsDesired Settlement: I hope to receive my money plus associated costs returned to me. This companies reputation is no longer credible in my eyes.

Review: I bought a 32" TV a couple months ago, and all of sudden a week ago it didn't turn on. I called K-mart where I purchase the product and they told me to contact the manufacture which is Coby, since then I been trying to contact them but its not possible, there is no body to answer the phone or the phone that the machine gives you is not in service.Desired Settlement: They have to replace the product or return the money.

Review: I bought a Coby Kryos 7" tablet in June of 2012. After having use it for only 4 months, the battery did not charge and the port for the battery was very lose and evenually just fell completely back inside the tablet. I returned and was sent a refurbished tablet in Dec of 2012 that ended up with the same problem. I returned it in may of 2013 with a letter asking for a new one or a full refund of $210.94. I called a month later and was told that they were back up and to call back in two weeks. each time I called I was told the same thing, to call back in two weeks. It is now August and I haven'nt heard from them nor have I recieved another tablet or refund. I call the number I usually call ###-###-#### and got a recording saying that the number had been disconnected. Just to be clear, the company that sold the item sells items of different companies and is not directly responsible for the product sold. if you would like to call the Gold Post for clearification, the # is ###-###-####. My dispute is not with them but with Coby Electronics. I do not want another piece of merchandise from this company. I only want my refund.Thank you[redacted]Desired Settlement: Full refund of $210.94

Review: I purchased a TV in November 2012. It has completely quit working. I contacted Coby about this issue, they told me to take to a repair place and have them find out what was wrong and email the needed part and Coby would sent it to be fixed. I took it to repair place paid $75 to have them look at it, they emailed Coby. After almost a month of waiting to hear from them I called back. then I was told they have moved there warehouse and nobody is answering those emails and that I would need to mail the TV to them and they would mail me a new TV. so I went back and got the TV and packaged it to return. Took it to the post office and they wanted $95.00 to mail the TV plus Coby wanted $30.00 to mail me the new TV back to me. TV only cost $203.00. I have been calling Coby for weeks and left messages and now one answers or returns calls. Now the 800 number I had just tells you to go to the web site, nobody ever answers it.

The item was shipped directly to the recipient who reported to me that it would not turn on straight out of the box.

On May [redacted] 2013 service tech "[redacted]" instructed the recipient to return the item to [redacted]. which they did, I can provide the UPS tracking number if needed. A follow up call on June [redacted] 2013 was made with "[redacted]" who confirmed the unit was received but explained they were moving warehouses and to check back after the first of July. Several phone calls have been attempted since then none of which have been answered. The phone number listed on the Coby website goes to an automated message stating to go to their website for customer support. Emails sent on August [redacted] 2013 and august [redacted] 2013 have been met with no reply of any kind.Desired Settlement: I am attempting to acquire a replacement DP1052 picture frame or failing that a full refund of the sale price of the product.

Review: To whomever can help me :

I sent in a tablet to Coby Company in Savanna ** to be repaired in April, which they recieved on the third of the same month. Their policy was to have it returned in six to eight weeks.After waiting at least the eight weeks, I called only to recieve all kinds of excuses from, hurricane Sandy put them behind, to they are in the process of moving to California. Fine and dandy but where is my tablet? It is now been three months and more excuses have followed. I have repeatedly called and they give me one excuse after another. After asking to file a claim for the product, I was given a number in New York, where I can never get through. I am now at a lost and have almost run out of options. Can you please help me or give me options as to what to do. The product is a Coby Tablet, model 1024 sent to ** in April. The phone numbers I have are as follows.

Coby Care is [redacted] Coby Claim Cnter is [redacted] The toll free number is the one with all the excuses, the New York one, I can never get through. Please advise me as to what my next step should be. I am at my wits end.

Review: In October 2012 I purchased a 40" 3D Coby television that, when installed, proved to be defective. Coby sold the TV with a promise of a 1 year warranty. I contacted them in the early part of 2013 and was told that they would send me a replacement and that I would also receive shipping labels to return the defective item. I waited a few weeks per the time frame they offered and received shipping labels but no replacement. When I called to get an update, they claimed that the person I spoke to previously was mistaken and that I had to send in my defective TV before they could proceed. I had no problem with that, other than that they had lied previously (further research on the subject found numerous other people who were told the same thing). I sent in the TV and received a call a few weeks later stating that it was unrepairable and that they wanted instead to send me [redacted] non-3D TV and two tablets. This was acceptable to me. I received the new TV and tablets about a week later. I set up the TV to make sure it wasn't defective, and to my surprise found that it too was malfunctioning. I tried again to contact Coby only to find that their customer service center was no longer accepting phone calls and was not responding to emails. I've tried numerous times to contact them and even had [redacted] (the retailer that I purchased the TV through in the first place) reach out to them with no success. At this time, I don't even know if Coby is still in business. I am still within my warranty period, although that will expire in about a month. I have never received a working television for my money.Desired Settlement: I would like to either receive a working product or get a refund if that is not possible. This is in line with what was promised when I bought the first TV.

Review: I purchased 3 Coby tablets from [redacted] for our grandchildren for Christmas. All had to be returned within 30 days of Christmas, however, there was one that was still defective and [redacted]e said the replacement period was over and gave me an address to send it back to Coby Returns, [redacted]. A [redacted] sent me the info and instructions to send it back. I did exactly as instructed and was told it could take up to 6 - 8 weeks to get it make. This was sent on April [redacted] 2013, and I have the postal receipt to prove that. I called Coby around July * and was told it would be shipped back soon. I am still waiting and think this is way too long to fix a problem. I have emailed [redacted] and he has never responded to any of my emails. His address is [redacted]. I would just like to get this back in a fixed condition so my grandchild can enjoy. I feel 16 weeks plus is way too long for this to get fixed. I also think [redacted] could have been a little more helpful in getting this resolved. I had to even send money to get this fixed. Thanks. [redacted]Desired Settlement: I think someone needs to get this back to me and make sure this problem doesn't have again.

Review: The television we purchased stopped working 3 months after purchase. We called COBY and spoke with [redacted] and were told to send in the television, receipt and a money order for return postage. We sent all of this in March 2013. We spoke with [redacted] a few times between March and July and he kept telling us that our replacement was going to be processed and sent soon. The last time we spoke with anyone at COBY we were told that our replacement television was being shipped that day, that was the end of July 2013. We have been calling and emailing everyday since mid August 2013 and have had no response from anyone.Desired Settlement: I would like our television replaced with a new one that will last for more than 3 months and a refund of the $25.00 money order we purchased and sent with our defective television, that was supposed to be for return postage of a new television, and 50% of the purchase price ($160) of the television refunded to us too.
