How long before Dell contacts you for replacement?
How long is it taking the folks with a 2007 who have put in a request to Chris M. for a replacement to be contacted by Dell, and then actually receiving the replacement. I put in a request as the sticky at the top of this forum indicated, last week, but have not received any calls or anything.
Good question, I got my 2007FPW with my new XPS400, and while not too bad for general use I was playing HL2:EP1 last night and it really looked bad in spots due to the banding, and DVDs look terrible. Can we get some kind of ETA on this, I am willing to wait, but it is starting to limit my enjoyment of my new PC so the sooner, the better.
I sent a note over to Chris M. to get an idea, but he indicated that he had no ETA. So I'm turning the request out to everyone on the boards. Maybe we can get a sense of how long it takes from people who have actually received their replacements using this forum. It seems like people calling in are getting them faster (versus using the forum to file their replacement request), but that's just a guess.
Chris got communication rolling, but I'm sure he's not responsible for Dell actually making calls/coordinating with the contacts Chris gave them to inform them when to expect replacements.
We're all very eager to get our mointors fixed, but it's just going to be a deal of waiting a "corporate minute" (2-3 weeks) After that time, there's been more than enough slack in the chain to question what's going on.
I'm not questioning Chris M's responsiveness or being impatient. Chris has actually been very helpful and answers my questions quickly. I'm just trying to gain a bit of insight as to what to expect. I'm fine with waiting a bit, just wondering if there is anyone who has received word back yet.
my problem isn't knowing how long it will be, i would just like word back that i actualy made it onto the list. a simple PM saying that i was on the list is all i need to know.
Go to your PM outbox and click on your message to ChrisM. If it has been read then you will see something like "Read on (blah blah date/time)". If it has been read, ur on the list. :smileywink:

A "simple PM" to all the potentially hundreds or thousands of users requesting a replacement monitor ceases to be a "simple PM" :smileyhappy:
