Okay I got this unlocked last week so i can add more... YES THERE IS MORE!!!!!
in about october the very mobo that I eventually got back from them on warranty died AGAIN. Exact same problem even though i had made changed to its environment. (took computer off the ground so less dust, bigger fan etc)
Anyway that was in october when i sent it.
Only last week did I get an email saying they had recieved it. No it wasnt lost in post, they only just then had decided to notify me.
why? well heres why.
They puposely let it tick over its warranty expiry. It should have ticked over in late november or so, so they jsut kept quiet about it so they didnt have to worry about me having to deal with then another time around.
I'm positive i'm not the only one, its probably yet another "screw customers over" tactic they practise.
Of course when i sent it back in october i already had my new computer (ordered from a different shop), so i had already written off the busted mobo as a lost cause.
Omfg can a shop get any worse?
And to twist the dagger, in this email they said that if i dont contact them within 7 days they are just going to turf the mobo cause its out of warranty. If i do contact them i have to pay to get it back. cause they've held it past its warranty i cant deal with the manufacturer in hopes of a replacement (i should have b4 but i cbf, i had already written the mobo off as a lost cause)
I promptly replied, telling them that if i have to pay anymore money to their cause, they can stick my dead mobo up their ass.

hahaha, no. ACA only does stories about puppies now, don't they? As opposed to Today Tonight which does tests on consumer products and nothing else. Seriously, is there no more actual current affairs shows in the world? Must I rely on the new hit talk show Ellen to learn about current events? Anyway, that story gets the award for greatest post I've read on this forum. Congratulations Arach, your pain and frustration is MOST amusing.

ACA and Today Tonight are loads of utter crap anyways.. why would you even want to watch the trash thats come out of them. Those sort of shows are design for gullible small minded people that believe everything they see on television.

I dont want to hijack Arach worthy thread so I might make another thread about ACA and TT. Tell ya what you should do, call up Gamedude and see if they can order in some parts for you and have them put aside until you can make it in and leave a fake phone number. Its a start

Better if we all do it. Like 20 of us ring up for the same part. And make it some shit part that no one will actually want to buy.
So they'll obviously need to order them in, and they'll buy 18-20 of them... and we'll never get back to them and leave fake numbers. Then, they'll be stuck with them because (as they are shit parts) no one will buy them.
