HTC

Complaint: ***
I am rejecting this response because: HTC returned my device the day after requested a charge back from my bank (which was outside the allowable window for charge backs)I received the device the day after I filed the Revdex.com complaintMy phone worked for day after I received it, then reverted back to having the issue for which the device was sent in for repairBased on the timing of events I am almost certain the device was not actually repaired, but was sent back when I complained to HTC and initiated a charge back with my bankI contacted HTC support on 11/HTC is again unwilling to replace the defective device or refund my moneyThey are requesting that I again send the phone in for repairSince the last repair took over two months and was unsuccessful in resolving the problem I am unwilling to endure that arduous process againI was told I would receive a call back from a customer service manager on 11/I still have not heard from anyone regarding this request
Sincerely,

Complaint: ***
I am rejecting this response because: Nothing has yet been satisfactorily resolvedI was contacted by the business after eight months of attempting to reach themI was then told the phone was useless and gave it to a friend for partsFinally, only after contacting the Revdex.com, was I contacted by a "Tier 2" or higher level supportNow I am hoping that the phone is still in tact in order to be able to resolve thisHowever, I don't see that a complaint is resolved by providing customer service almost a year after the original issue - particularly in an industry that is fast paced and ever evolvingEven if this phone is able to be activated, it has been a year without its use and the next model has been produced and is for saleAs a business, they are aware of the advancesUntil the contact is resolved and some solution is reached, I am not satisfied.

I am rejecting this response because: Through repeated levels of incompetenceIt's shown, I've never requested a warrant repairHOWEVER, NUMEROUS TIMESI've asked, demanded a repair tkt number to send it in and have yet to get one.. Even the ineptitude shows through this responseIf I'm being told correctly, I cannot send the phone in for a repair as the response states; UNTIL I HAVE A *** TICKET NUMBER!!! Which I still do not have

We contacted the customer via phone and email to explain the replacement process and to provide a pre-paid label so he can return the device to our Warehouse. We ask the customer to check his spam or junk folders and let us know the option that works best for him. The pre-paid label will be attached...

to this response as well.

On the 28th of August an HTC representative spoke with Ms. [redacted] and was able to help her take advantage of the Uh Oh program. We are currently awaiting her device at our repair center, once we have received the device a replacement will be sent. After Ms. [redacted] has received her replacement we...

will consider this matter resolved.

Customer agreed yesterday 06/01/2015 with a representative to check if we could get him his original device because unfortunately we only have certified like new devices to give out as replacements. Told customer we were going to check for updates with the department in charge and get back...

to him later today. We have informed the customer we do not have any updates yet on his request for returning his original device. Advised if this cannot be fulfilled, what we could offer was another replacement process with a certified like new device. Customer asked how long was it going to take for the whole process to be completeted, we could not give an exact timeframe due to the investigation that we have going on with the Repair facility. Told customer we will be following up on the case to get the issue resolved as soon as possible, advised he may receive also a callback from the representative that took and escalated his case yesterday. Asked customer if he had any questions or needed further information. Customer did not have any questions or needed any information.

Mr. [redacted] has been advised about the fact that  taking one of the benefits of the UH OH protection plan ($100 credit ) voids the possibility of enjoying the other one (free replacement in case of cracked screen or liquid damage).
The request of the coupon code was submitted  by the...

customer directly from the HTC web-site (https://uhoh-cr.htc.com/)  on  06/13/2016.  Before its completion he found  the following warning:   "Please Note: Once the coupon has been issued, an Uh Oh claim cannot be submitted”,  and he was required to read and agree with the UH OH Protection Credit Redemption Terms and Conditions,  which were displayed on the same page.   Upon finishing this process, Mr. [redacted] received an e-mail confirmation providing the coupon code  “[redacted]” which can be used to  receive the $100 discount in  the purchase of the next HTC device.  For this reason he has been explained that his phone is no longer eligible for the free  UH OH replacement. 
However, the customer has been informed that the company will be able to assist with a repair taking in account that there will be a quotation for the price of fixing any physical damage, which is / are not covered by the original warranty.  The customer has been offered with a Pre-paid label as a courtesy in order to facilitate this process.

HTC will fulfill the customer's request in accordance with the terms and conditions of the regular repair process. HTC sent a request to the repair center in order to push this process. A turnaround time cannot be provided to the customer until we receive a notification from the facilities. As soon...

as we have more information the customer will be contacted.

The process has been completed, the device delivered and received by the customer under tracking number [redacted].

The main reason of the delay was related with the high volume of orders and the stock levels. Customer already received the product and the next day shipping fee was refunded.
Customer refused to receive a coupon code as compensation and he was contacted directly by the representative assigned by...

HTC corporate office, however customer stated he wanted to receive a full refund without returning the device.
Since buyer’s remorse period has not been exceeded customer will be able to follow the refund process which may take from 7 to 10 business days after HTC facility receives the device.

Complaint: [redacted]
I am rejecting this...

response because:HTC has provided no credible evidence to support their claim that the liquid was not perspiration.  They claim that the corrosion patterns could not be caused by perspiration entering the controller due to the fact that it is in multiple places.  I maintain that perspiration was the only liquid that the controller came into contact with and that perspiration, while dripping down from my hand and onto the controller, could have entered the controller's housing and arrived at those two points just as easily as any other liquid.  In addition, I submit the following observations for consideration:1) The intense localized corrosion found is characteristic of a salty liquid, such as perspiration, rather than of a prolonged immersion in water or some other liquid.2) There is no residue on or inside the controller to indicate that another liquid was the cause of the failure.I feel that HTC must honor their warranty on this device.
Sincerely,
[redacted]
