After logging 80 hours on the phone and talking to different people we made the circle back to previous people we had talked to weeks before who remembered our situation. Needless to say most didnt speak a de english any too well. They finally took the faulty computer back and repaid us the money after we found a consumer help company to get involved. That took 10 different letters to attorney generals, consumer affairs, etc... So believe me, I can sympatize... Gee I wonder why Gateway was finally sold.

It usually works at some point. Sometimes you have to press zero a dozen times in a row. It's crazy that you can't talk to a real person without getting ticked off by a machine first.<br /><br />Good luck to you my dear. I'm so proud of you for sticking with it. <br /><br />Oh and about the husband allowing the wife to talk -- I get that, too. I actually told one guy my husband's SS number and he said that my husband still had to approve it. I said, OK. The plumber is here, I'll get him to be my husband real quick and the person on the other end said that would be fine!!!

Nine times out of ten, he gets results and things work out best for the customer. I do not like Chase Bank.
