~Susan's review of Dell customer service

GetHuman: So how would you sum up your experience for GetHuman's Dell customer community? We'll censor any IDs, numbers, or codes and any inappropriate words here out of respect to the millions of other customers using this resource.
~Susan: I was sent a computer with a bad hard drive. It has been a nightmare to the point I had to hire an attorney and we are in process of suing them for a number of things. I took the computer to my own repair shop and PAID to have it fixed while still under their non existent warranty.
GetHuman: Let's quantify your experience contacting Dell. On a scale of 1 to 5, how easy is it go get help on a Dell problem?
~Susan: I'd give them a two out of five for ease of finding your way to help.
GetHuman: What about quality of communication. How would you rate that on a 1 to 5 scale?
~Susan: I'd give them a one out of five on communication.
GetHuman: And what about Dell's ability to quickly and effectively address your problem?
~Susan: For that I would say four out of five.
GetHuman: And finally- any advice for other Dell customers?
~Susan: Call them early in the day or late. Don't forget any personal or account information you might need for Dell to know who you are.
GetHuman: Well there you have it. Some useful feedback and words from ~Susan taken from his Dell customer service problem that occurred on October 23rd, 2017.
