I tried to show what it would not do on my blog site. He just kept going at it....proving even he had problems with it . What the heck....I did not have those problems before taking our computer into that shop.
How would someone even think to justify charging to clean up an error they made. I am not happy. I will not be needing any more service from there.
We live and learn, I guess. Hope your day is better than mine. xo
Sending you a hug.....
ReplyDeleteThank you Ann...I so needed one. xoxo,Susie
ReplyDeleteDon't you love it when business offers a service, mishandles it and then charges you for their mistake. Sounds like the car dealership I bought my car at, and why I go to my regular mechanic instead of them. They are much closer to me than my mechanic.
ReplyDeleteBoston Boy...they tried to tell me the 5 or more things that my computer will no longer do is program changes at Microsoft...are you kidding me. One thing I might believe but not that many. No I will not go back there...ever. Plus I will not recommend that service. Hope all your computer problems are easier to solve. People just love taking advantage of those that are not in the know. It's a sad thing. I am like you, once I find someone trustworthy , I always go back and I do tell others about their good service too. xoxo,Susie
DeleteUGH!!! I hate that. when I find someone who gives me good service I really stick with them. Some businesses just don't get it. Hope yu get it figured out. xo Laura
ReplyDeleteGood service and integrity go along way with us. The ophone services are going thru this very thing right now...I hear of people changing all the time. TV is another. I'll just deal with all these issues till I find time with my children. xoxo,Susie
DeleteThat really is the pits. I would question why you have to pay him anything.
ReplyDeleteOh I did...it's all microsoft changes don't you know....that's what he said. An expensive lesson. indeed. xoxo,Susie
DeleteYikes! what a horrid experience! We are very happy to have a computer GENIUS who fixes our computers and does multiple other amazing things too, like get my cellphone to sync with my email (which my email provider tries not to allow to happen). Bad sentence there. Anyway, hope your day gets better and that you can find someone competent to work on computer woes in the future.
ReplyDeleteOh I really wish that myself. You are right it was a horrid experience. I don't want to re-live it. xoxo,Susie
DeleteThat is so frustrating! I hope things work better soon! And I went and visited 'berries and more' and she has such a nice blog! Thanks! Hugs, Diane
ReplyDeleteDiane, On Nellie's blog she shows and gives recipes at times too. You'll be seeing her kid books at times. xoxo,Susie
DeleteSo sorry... I have a friend that the same thing happened to. What a waste of time and money. How do businesses get away with it?
ReplyDeleteBless you,
Gert
Gert, It hurts, because we want to trust and when you get that feeling that you may be getting ripped off, it's hard to ever feel any trust.It comes down to scruples, I guess. xoxo,Susie
DeleteI am so sorry. We spent several months fighting with AT&T about our service. They are the worst at customer service, so I know how you feel.
ReplyDeleteOh every time I have had to call our carrier while all this computer stuff is going on...I am on hold about 1/2 hour ..then everything they did over the line didn't work beyond the time I was on the phone. Where have all the good guys gone?? Blessings, xoxo,Susie
DeleteI hope you were able to leave the shop with the necessary adjustments made for your blog! No bill needed, thank you very much! xo Nellie
ReplyDeleteI left with the ability to see my gmail acct. I can even say he did much other that techy double talk...which just frustrated me. He actually told to play on my computer to learn more...well I would if I could access things...I am not sure what I need at this point. xoxo,Susie
Deleteservice seems to be getting worse and worse while the prices they charge keep going up. I know my computer has never been the same since I had it "fixed." Lesson learned.
ReplyDeleteJoanne, Then you know exactly what I am going through. I was have a problem of not reaching some blogs and taking long periods of time to connect. Took it in and they "cleaned it up" took off a lot of windows 8 things and it's not been the same since. But I paid 247 dollars. I am not satisfied ..so I will never go back there. xoxo,Susie
DeleteI'm sorry about your frustration, Susie.
ReplyDeleteWhat a shame. I hope things get straightened out soon for you. Debbiexoxo
