      I made an order of laptop and a monitor on December 25, 2022. The total cost was $1558.78 and it has already been paid ***. Order number is *******. * ** * ********* ******* ******** *** it is important for me to receive my order by Monday January 9th, ** **** **** ** ***** ***** ******** **** **** However, they have not shipped out my order from their warehouse, nor have they updated to me about the order (ie: out of stock). In addition they aren’t even responding back to me on my support ticket and I tried reaching via ******** page and phone as well. Phone was a failure as I couldn’t even get to speak to any of their customer support, and on ******** they just said due to high volume they aren’t able to reply to my ticket, and nothing else about order.

      If weren’t going to be able to fulfil my order, **** ********* ***** ******* ** ** ****** **** ** ***** ****** *** ******, they need to update to me if they are out of stock so I can at least be refunded. **** *** * ***** ** ***** *** ** **** *** ******* **** ** ********* ****** ** ******* *** ***** **** *** ****** ******* *** I need a laptop by Monday.

      My latest message to CC on their ******** has been about a possibility of going to pick up to any of their 3 sites in ****** area, *** **** **** ****** ***** ** ***** ** ** ** **** ** ****** ***** ** *** *****

      A brand new ***** ***** ****** printer was purchased from Canada Computers on November 14, 2022 (less than two months ago).

      The start-up and software installation prompts went fine until the printer gave an error code of either the printer cartridges not being present or not being installed correctly. It was then repeatedly confirmed that the printer cartridges were present, installed and seated correctly.

      I am in the process of trying new ink cartridges over the next few days to see if the ink cartridges packed with the printer were already defective and/or damage. If new ink cartridges doesn't work, I am requesting an exchange for a printer that is not defective. I would also accept a refund is an exchange isn't possible.

      I have attempted to contact Canada Computers over the phone to resolve the matter (no response after over a 30 minute wait with no indication if they have long wait times). * ******** * ********** ** **** ******* ******** * ******* ** *** ***** *** **** **** ******** *** * ********** ** ** ********* * **** Canon for the 1 year manufacturer's warranty.

      I am filing in case inactivity on Canada Computer's end continues.

      The resolution I am looking for is an exchange for a functioning printer at little to no further inconvenience to myself. I would also accept a refund is an exchange isn't possible.

      Thank you,
      ***

      Canon Canada has responded and wants to issue me a replacement. This is because I also contacted them directly for warranty. Canada Computers has not responded, which is who I filed the complaint about and bought the printer from.
