New article: Dell tech support asks us for tech support
Here at ZATZ, we really like Dell computers and the people we've met at Dell on the editorial side have been quite nice. We've given a number of Dell products some very high reviews. We've also been Dell customers, paying full price for some nice Dell products. However, we think there should be a special place in Hell reserved for Dell tech support. In fact, one of the reasons we buy far fewer Dell products than we once did was due to the truly horrid support experiences we've had with offshored Dell support techs. So, when an email came in to OutlookPower from a Dell support tech, our first reaction was to delete it, mock, and otherwise be relatively rude. However, the message began with the phrase "Respected Sir". And we thought, "OK, here's someone who's doing offshore support for Dell who's actually trying to help a customer. Let's encourage that."
