HP
Reviews and Complaints

I purchased a HP Deskjet 1010 series Printer from Walmart March 2014. These printers obviously have a factory defect and though I cannot prove hard evidence that Walmart is aware of these defective printers, I believe that Walmart knows and don't care. As long as they are generating profit that is the bottom line. I will inform my state's consumer protection agency about the practice of selling defective products and ask what can they do to help. I am no longer a customer at Walmart. Walmart has ridiculous prices on off brand products they are ripping people off like they have done me. I will easily take my business some where else.
Disgruntled Ex-Customer, Annapolis, MD

Hi,

I would like to lay a complain about the poor service I have recently received from both Vodacom and HP. I took out a Tablet contract by Vodacom. Not even a month old and the camera stopped working. I immediately go to Vodacom with the hope that the will sort this problem out for me and they rather give me a number to phone of HP because apparently I have to deal directly with HP to sort out the Tablet i Have on contract with Vodacom and Not HP. Fine enough I contact HP and the assist me in getting a form etc to get the device fixed or replaced. They dont give me proper guidelines as to where it should be replaced at nothing. I then go back to Vodacom with the Tablet in its packaging, everything required to replace the Tablet, and they tell me that they cant replace the product, I must go to HP or they should collect it from me. I have NO cooking clue where HP is etc so how must i replace the device? I then contacted Both HP and Vodacom, complaining about this poor service of them and request that they terminate the contract. Vodacom tells me that I have to pay an amount due to the contract being prematurely terminated. I asked them why i should pay for a device that doesnt even work. I just feel that it is NOT my duty as paying customer to sort out a device which I took on contract from Vodacom being the service provider and HP. It is not my duty to sort out a faulty device I got from Vodacom on my contract. I am fed up and don't know what else to do and feel that my last resort is to take this matter to Radio 702. To me this is unacceptable how I have to sort out the mess Vodacom and HP caused.

On March 11, 2014 I bought an HP Pavilion x2 tablet from HH Gregg but when I plugged the unit in I saw that the warranty had expired. So I did not pay it any mind because I bought a warranty service plan as well. On May 16, 2014 I called the service company about fixing the product and the informed me that my extended service plan was no good because they sold me a computer without an original warranty. i called the store where I bought the product and talked to the supervisor and was letting him know of the problem so after going back and forth for 30 minutes because Every time he feed me a lie about how they don't sell items without a factory warranty, I will prove him wrong with documentation from HP. The supervisor got frustrated and told me to F**** myself and hung up the phone. As little do he know this is not over because I will be going to the store in the morning and talking to the GM, I hope that get me some where, if not I will be calling the BBB.

Bottom line do not shop at HH Gregg...

I bought a HP all in one printer 5520 from Futureshop.ca in April 2013 with 1 year manufacturer warranty. Recently when I called HP support desk for troubleshooting since scan was not working and I could not print email attachment. I was told by HP support that the serial # I gave them was in their system and warranty was already expired, whereas my printer should have warranty till mid April, 2014. They also said I probably was sold a used printer as new one by Future Shop. When I called futureshop.ca to my astonishment, I was told it was my responsibility to check the printer when I received to find out if it was new or used. I ask to speak to their supervisor 3 times and each time they put me on hold for 20-30 minutes till I hang up. They have worst customer service and their staff and managers lack courtesy and there is no accountability for their action. So I paid almost $100 and have been left with no warranty and useless printer..

I bought hp monitor from lulu center here in muscat. It went bed within 3 to 4 months with hazy lines coming on the monitor and faded colors. I submitted to hp service center. They initial requested two months for repair and now two more months. Total 4 months. Actually still not sure about delivery. They have redingote as their local repair service company. They expressed their helplessness. My job card number with them is 1640734. My question is 1) how hp can provided such poor quality products ? 2) how can they don't have spares with them ? 3) how it is possible for any one to live without a computer screen without more than 4 months.In my opinion they should simply regret rather than requesting a time of 4 months.

Bought 3 x HP Officejet Pro 8500A (A910a) printers. These printers were bought at around R1800 each. The Training Centre need a high quality printer to print the certificates we issue to our clients.

On Monday, 7 October 2013, I suddenly started experiencing a problem with one of the 8500A printers (CN171CM581) I personally use. I kept on getting a message from the printer instructing me to clear a paper jam. There was no paper jam. Obviously, it was a false paper jam message. I took the printer to the local agents. They informed me that they must send the printer to HP to have a look. The other two printers were still working fine. I took another HP Officejet 8500A (CN171CM54Z) and started using it while my first HP printer was in for repairs.

On Wednesday, 9 October 2013, I receive a call from the local agents informing me that the printer was no more under guarantee. One year have expired since it was bought and the only explanation could be that the responsible person at the training centre did not do her job and register the printers on the internet as she was supposed to do!. The local agents further informed me that they receive a quotation from HP that it would cost around R2900.00 to repair the printer. I nearly blow my top!. How could it cost R1100.00 more to repair the printer than it originally cost!.

On Thursday morning, 17 October 2013, the second HP Officejet Pro 8500A (CN171CM54Z) printer I was now using, suddenly gave the exact same message and refused to work any further. That is when I personally started to make calls to find out what was going on. I went onto the net and started looking around to see if other people also have the same problem. O Boy! What a surprise, the net is full of complaints and yes I got my answer. Suddenly the remark made by the lady I spoke to during my first call to Ensure Service (HP appointed service agents - Gauteng) made a lot of sense. She said that this was a common problem with this printer but refuse to speak any further except that I must get into my car and bring the printer in for repairs. Hello, I am just 400km from Ensure Services in Lichtenburg, North West Province!

It also became clear that something must have broken. I realise that I am the only person in the office that started using the 2-side printing feature on the printer. I only started using this feature about 3 weeks ago. Obviously that must be part of the problem – this printer do have this feature but due to a factory flaw this printer can’t handle this feature and that is why the part (plastic gear) is breaking. Because nobody else in the office is using the 2-sided printing option the last printer is still going strong! I instructed them not to even try using this special feature.

My question is what now? Clearly this is a flaw of the printer or the flaw plastic gear. Why must we, the customer now be penalised for a bad product when the 2-sided printing option is clearly marked as a main feature of this printer. How are we going to solve this matter? HP cannot expect their customers to pay for the repairs of a product that was clearly flawed from day one and cannot handle a feature that is used as a selling point for this specific printer.

Never in my life an HP product again!

In sep. 2011, I bought a hp pavilion dv6 3120 notebook which has i7 processor. The product didnt make me happy. It has excessively heating problems. Even if no application is open on the notebooks desktop, its main board and cpu are working on 75 degrees and above. When you open some apps like explorer, product temperatures are reaching 90 degrees. Due to high heating problem, its fan is always working noisy. Its keyboard is warming much over than normal that makes the product not confortable for using.
In scope of product guaranty of my notebook, I sent my notebook 5 times for this problem to hp technical service in turkey. At the end of each services they sent back the product which is written & ldquo;they find and solve the problem” service operation note attached. But the same problem is still going on. Unhappily, it appears like they sent back the product with doing nothing. After those insoluble process I called hp call center and explained my complain an authorized personnel again. She told me, there is notting to they can do. Do you think the answer meaningful?
If you want more detail of my complain records, you can search with my product serial number cnf0490htq, model number xr547ea in hp turkey system. And you can see the mail in turkish, that I sent to hp turkey with the problems screen shot, link below.

There dealers cheat people by providing wrong information to sell HP PRODUCTS.
As I was cheated by one of their dealer TECHSMART SYSTEMS PVT.LTD SALES OFFICE 1/122 GF, SHANKER ROAD OLD RAJINDER NAGAR NEW DELHI 110060. EMAIL ID:[protected]@rediffmail.com PH:[protected] [protected] who sold me HP SLATEBOOK X2 by telling me that it would give me 10 hrs as per my requirements but its only giving me 4 to 5 hrs of battery back. Their after sales service is even worst because after complaining to them several times they are not doing anything. They are forcing me to believe that there is no problem with their product and they cannot do anything about the DEALER wrong doing

This is to inform that not only your dealers cheat people by giving wrong information about HP product to sell HP products but your customer care service is even worst. Today I got a call from your Customer Relations Case Manager (GIRIJA TS) (EMAIL ID: girija.[protected]@hp.com) regarding my complain for HP SLATEBOOK X2 POOR BATTERY LIFE She is telling me that nothing can be done about your complain. SHE called me at 2:43 pm on 25/9/2013 and told me now nothing can be done about this now you also know that no tablet can give 12 to 14 hrs of battery backup. Then after argueing with her about the misleading information given to me by HP dealer TECHSMART SYSTEMS PVT.LTD SALES OFFICE 1/122 GF, SHANKER ROAD OLD RAJINDER NAGAR NEW DELHI 110060 about the battery back GIRIJA TS told me that has the dealer given me in writing that the tablet would give me 12 to 14hrs of battery backup or given me any specs sheet regarding this I said no but I am sure of this that their salesman said sir I can confirm you that the tablet will give you between 12 to 14 hrs of battery backup. I also told her that good battery back is the main criteria for me to buy the HP SLATEBBOK X2 tablet. Then she told me sorry sir we cannot do anything about this now and put my phone on hold and 2 to 3 mins disconnected my phone.
This is really very nice on HP COMPUTERS behalf how they treat their customers complain by doing these things calling them and telling them that nothing can be done about their complain and putting their phone on hold.

I had purchased a HP Probook 4530s in August of 2012 with my financial aid, and I must say a great computer but in Feb of 2013, this year my video and audio went out. Completely. I contacted HP because I knew my warranty covered this issue. I talked to them and the next day they had a box at my door with a note to put my laptop, battery, and charger in the box...I did, the next day shipped it off. Well should of been fixed right? No. 4 days later I receive my laptop back from HP in worse conditions. Here is a list of everything missing.
Hard-Drive
Keyboard
RAM
Memory
Disk Drive
Back Panel of my laptop (even the screws)
To anyone this is unacceptable. I contacted HP furious. They called me a liar and told me I send it in that way, when I didn't. Then they openly admitted to lying about it cause they told me they opened it up and found "bug poop" in it. Basically my case went on for over a month, and randomly they call me one day and say we can't help you in this case, told me they weren't doing anything for it, and hung up on me. So now I have a 750.00 computer in a box. That I can't do anything with because HP won't help me when they did it.

I am mohammad nazeer store manager of nilkamal home ideas furniture store. We recently opened a store in ongole, andhra pradesh, we purchased a hp scan jet g2410 model scanner for our store. But from last week it is not working. When we on the scanner it is in the off mode only. Kindly rectify the complaint as early as possible

DO NOT CALL THESE ###! They take your credit card info and then POUND your card multiple times for fees they were NEVER authorized to charge even ONCE! When I called them about their bogus charges, they said they need 10 days to two weeks to due an internal investigation! No case # no info was given to me they just HUNG UP with me in mid sentence...this is a classic CC SLAM scam used buy long distance carriers back in the day when these scummy sales people would call and switch your service to their company without authorization...I knew better than to buy any HP product because of their terrible performance (printers)...but don't call their Service Dept. YOU WILL BE CHARGE FOR WORK YOU DON'T AUTHORIZE ON PRODUCTS THAT ARE STILL UNDER WARRANTY! These are the types of incidents that have so many people vilifying all BUSINESSES in our country...so it's important we single out and then steer clear of those Corp./Businesses that are truly unprofessional and unworthy of consumer support...HP is one of them! To the little HP punk who thinks he made a nice commission off me...I hope our call was truly recorded...because you should be out of a job!
