  • Dear Mr XXXXXX,

    I apologize for any inconvenience this issue may have caused.

    I am mailing from Dell in relation to your 19"/26" LCD TV (choose
    correct item) order which you placed last week. It was a great value offer
    which was subject to availability.

    For a very limited period from the 29th to 30th November, due a
    technical error a number of 19"/26" LCD TV orders were confirmed in error.
    Unfortunately due to the unprecedented demand for the offer combined with
    this technical error, at the point that your order was confirmed we
    were no longer in a position to supply you with a 19"/26" TV.

    As the product is End of Line we are not in a position to provide a
    replacement. The error was quickly identified and rectified but we regret
    that we are not now in a position to deliver the TV model which you
    ordered from us.

    We are happy to provide you with a full refund if monies have been
    taken from your account together with a gesture of goodwill of
    19" Customers: £50 or EUR75 voucher towards another purchase
    26" Customers: £75 or EUR110 voucher towards another purchase
    on our part.

    We will begin the refunding process as soon as possible but please be
    aware that it may take up to 7 days for your voucher to reach you. We
    would be happy to discuss other purchase options with you.

    We sincerely regret this error and apologize to you for any confusion
    caused.

    Thanks

    To anyone considering a refurb if offered, I'm not saying don't go for one - you might end up with something which is cosmetically perfect. These are pics of the set which I had sent to me last Friday after two seperate assurances by Dell that I wasn't getting a refurb.

    Needless to say, I was on the 'phone to them almost straight away; this set was still registered to it's previous buyer (!) and consequently I was put on the 'ownership' programme where I've been patiently waiting for the last five days without any further news. This was my third replacement W2600 in nine days. The previous two were faulty (one with a sound fault, the other a PSU issue).

    That is a joke, how can they send out a Tv in that condition?. By the way one W2600 is due in at https://www.ebuyer.com tomorrow if anyone wants one.

    I thought that if you buy an item and it goes faulty within 30 days they had to give you a new one by law?.

    Mike i wouldn't wait any longer. Call them and ask whats happening and ask to speak to a supervisor if you get no joy.

    Any idea when the vouchers are going to be emailed out, or do I need to call and ask for that too?
    oh, and my monitor is supposed to arrive today, but Dell messed up on 600-700 orders and sent CD's instead... suprised?... not really.
