    Default Arrrggghhhhhh where do I start?

    A few weeks back my charging port broke on my Acer Laptop, as its still covered under warranty Acer repaired it and returned it . All well and good....... hmmm after I got it back it was running really slow to the point iI was ready to throw it against the wall! So I gave Acer another call who advised a system recovery, ok no probs....... still wouldnt run right so back on the phone again and off my laptop goes again to Acer.

    This morning they have sent me a quote by way of PFD saying I know owe them 87 pounds for a new battery, labour charges, courier charge + vat sooooo my pc thechnician cousin has given a call telling them i knew the battery was faulty but thats not what i wanted repairing , anyway they have made out its the battery why the lappy is slow running Our Chris works do to with computers and has had them all his life , him and the lads in the office have never heard so much carp. They taking it further....... i dont know how or anything but im sooooo upset, Acer have talked to me and treated me like an idiot for weeks

    Yeh I'm hoping something will be resolved. It never ran slow before they did the repair to the port and my battery worked fine before they dabbled with things grrrrr....... and the guy at Acer the same one every time a lad called Dean is sooo rude! Talks to you like something he has trodden in he is sooo arrogant!!

    Good luck with orange Drooler

    Yep. Absolutely rubbish. If you're running it from the mains, then the battery's not being called upon.

    Maybe they're getting confused between a laptop and a fluffy rabbit on a Duracell advert.
