      Dear HP Executive Relations,I am writing to formally request immediate assistance regarding a serious issue with my HP All-in-One PC (Model: 20-C434, Serial Number: **********, Product Number: *******#ABA).Summary of Issue:I originally contacted ** Support for help with a technical issue. During that call, I was transferred or referred to an external agency for assistance. After following that referral, my system was compromised a firewall or bug was installed onto the device, one of my drivers stopped working, and the overall integrity of my desktop was *********** make matters worse, when I contacted ** again for follow-up assistance, I was told the device was outside the one-year warranty and no support could be provided. However, I initially purchased an extended warranty with this system. Despite this, ** is now claiming that no extended warranty exists on my account, which I strongly ********** Concerns:I never authorized any invasive software or driver changes to be made to my device.The third-party referral came directly from *** support team, and ** should be accountable for that action.I should still be under extended warranty coverage, and I am asking for verification and enforcement of that protection.Request:I am requesting that HP:1.Honor the extended warranty or thoroughly investigate why it is no longer showing.2.Provide a full system inspection and repair at no charge due to the circumstances surrounding HPs referral and resulting harm.3.Investigate the external referral process, including whether other customers may have been impacted.HP Product Info for Reference:Model Number: 20-C434 Serial Number: ********** Product Number: *******#ABA

      ** acknowledges the customer's experience, but we need more information to proceed with assistance. Please provide a copy of the extended warranty purchased for the ** All-in-One - 20-c434, or a copy of the original receipt, so that we can further assist with your issue.

      Complaint: 23642276

      I am rejecting this response because:

      Dear HP Executive Relations,
      I am writing in response to your recent message requesting a receipt or proof of purchase to verify the extended warranty coverage on my HP All-in-One PC, Product#5QA37AA#ABA-Model 20-C434 (S/N: 8CC00326V6).

      Unfortunately, your response is inadequate and unreasonable under the totality of the circumstances. As I previously explained, the unit has become non-functional due to a referral made by *** own support, which resulted in unauthorized and potentially malicious changes to my system rendering it inaccessible and corrupting critical files,including any stored purchase documentation. HPs Support Team referred me to an outside party, who compromised my computer system. My extended warranty was purchased, but ** is now claiming no record, despite my registration and support call history. I am being penalized for the very problem caused by HPs referral and the resulting system failure, which has made it impossible to retrieve documentation stored locally on the device. Your current refusal to assist violates several consumer protection and warranty laws:

      1.********-**** Warranty Act (15 U.S.C. 2301 et seq.)
      This federal law governs consumer product warranties. It prohibits companies from:
      Denying warranty service based solely on a lost receipt, especially when other proof of ownership exists (e.g., serial number, registration, support history). Failing to provide a remedy for defective or compromised goods when the defect was exacerbated by the manufacturers own referral.
      2.Implied Warranty of Merchantability (UCC 2-314). Even without a written warranty,every sale of goods includes an implied warranty that:
      The product will function as intended. If it becomes defective through no fault of the consumer, a remedy must be provided.
      3.FTC Guidelines on Warranty Enforcement. Per FTC regulations, manufacturers cannot deny warranty coverage or support when:
      The failure arises through no misuse by the consumer. Documentation is unavailable due to the malfunction of the very product in question.
      4.State-Level Consumer Protection Statutes (e.g., Tennessee Consumer Protection Act)
      Your denial may also constitute a deceptive practice under T.C.A. ********* if you fail to honor warranties or misrepresent available protections after directing the customer to an unvetted third party. 

      In light of the facts and laws above, I am demanding the following: A full refund or replacement All-in-One PC of equal or superior value (at minimum, model 20-C434). Assistance with data recovery, or compensation for lost data, due to the HP-referred compromise. Written confirmation of my extended warranty status, or a written statement explaining why it cannot be honored despite the device registration and support history. While I no longer have access to the receipt due to the systems failure: My serial number, model, product number, and support history confirm I am the rightful owner. ** should retain sales registration or extended warranty records tied to the devices serial number. The initial support call and referral to the third party should be documented in HPs records.

      If ** does not resolve this issue within 10 business days, I will proceed with filing complaints to the following agencies: ************************ (***). Tennessee Attorney Generals Office, ****************** and the ************************************ (****). Additionally, I will explore legal remedies through small claims court, citing warranty breach,misrepresentation, and consequential damages due to data loss. I hope ** will take this opportunity to resolve the matter professionally and honorably.

      Sincerely,
      Hamza Huqq

      ** Support does not formally refer customers to third-party service providers outside our authorized support channels. If a third-party entity provided services on your device, that provider acted independently and without endorsement or authorization from **. Unfortunately, ** cannot take responsibility for damage or system corruption caused by third-party actions.

      While we understand your concern regarding documentation loss due to system failure, *** warranty policy requires verifiable proof of purchase to activate or validate warranty coverage including extended warranty plans. This is a standard industry practice and a necessary step to protect both customers and the company from potential fraudulent claims. Without this documentation, we are unable to confirm the warranty status.

      HP stands behind the quality of our products and our written warranties, which are clearly outlined in the product documentation. However, these warranties exclude damage resulting from unauthorized repairs or modifications. If your system was accessed by a third party outside of HPs service framework, this may void certain warranty protections.

      HP complies with all applicable federal and state laws, including the ********-**** Warranty Act and local consumer protection statutes. That said, these laws do not obligate manufacturers to provide warranty service in cases where damage results from external factors or where required proof of purchase cannot be produced.

      ** has blocked our printer so we use their ink cartridges ONLY.Its a monopoly and now they charge higer prices to buy their printer cartridge.They need to be UP FRONT with a consumer about not using a third party INK CARTRIDGE. ITS DISTORTION at itS BEST! I will NEVER buy an ** product agIn!,,

      Business Response

      ** is aware that Customer disagrees with our security measures that display an error when using non-HP ink cartridges. The reason this was implemented was because for many years the toner being used in the 3rd party toner cartridges were damaging HP printers, causing clogs and leakages due to the lack of consistency of the toner and resulting in printers being replaced due to the damage. ** took measures to protect the printers from being prematurely damaged and protect the integrity of its products.

      On 6/13/25, I contacted ** in order to help me updated the printer driver on my Pavilion desktop computer, which was running perfectly. A tech representative took over my computer and updated the driver. She advised that after she disconnects the call, I restart the computer. When I restarted the computer, it went into a **** update. The computer was producing loud warning sounds and the screen advised that I not shut it down. The **** update continued to repeat itself over and over for hours. I tried to call ** back, but by that time there was no live support. It was then the weekend and still no live support. I took the computer to the GEEK squad who informed me that the mother board was damaged and there was no repair possible I have called HP countless times, I have several case numbers and notes. No one will take responsibility.All was working fine until the tech took it over. Now I have no computer and I am expected to pay over $1,000 to replace it! There is NO customer service who has authority to assist me, even when the call was escalated. I need someone to take responsibility for crashing my system with whatever they did when they took it over. case #********************9,5144837896

I asked for my money back and after apologizing and he sent me to somebody else that was supposed to help me that somebody else has taken almost a month response every two weeks does not want to take a screenshot receipt from ****** says he needs more and the response again another two weeks theyre rude the disrespectful and cynical and have me hanging here with a nonworking printer for more than two months.

      I ordered a laptop for work at a major medical center on 7/6/2025. Scheduled delivery was 7/10. When it did not arrive, i called ****** They said there was a scan issue and i would receive it on 7/12. On 7/11 i get delivered text that says delivered to M ******** at ************. I call ***** and they assure me it is still a scan error. By 7/13, still no delivery so i opened case with fed ex. *** ex has since closed case and said the package is lost. For 11 days, i have been trying to receive a replacement or a refund from **. They keep saying ***** hours for replacement to be shipped for 11 days now. As of today, they are asking for another ***** hours. I paid a lot of money to not receive my order and they are not standing by their word and replacing it or giving a refund. They rarely call back when they say. I keep having to make contact. I think they want me to go away so they do not have to issue new order or refund.

      I purchased an ** accessory monitor on Dec 25, 2024 for $294. It is the ** E14 G4 Portable monitor, Serial 3CQ33605WK and Product 1B065AA. After minimal light use in my home with no trauma or reason for damage to the monitor, it developed a black area on the display which interferes with my being able to use this effectively. This product is currently under warranty and I submitted a claim to ** Case Number **********, which included speaking directly with a representative and sending a picture of the screen. Despite this, they denied my claim. If they can't warranty the display on a monitor, what exactly is the warranty for. This is bad service, as clearly this monitor has failed within the warranty time frame. I would like a new monitor to replace the defective one.

      I am writing to formally dispute an unauthorized change to my HP Instant Ink account and to request immediate resolution.I originally purchased an ** printer from ******* and enrolled in the HP Instant Ink subscription program at Staples, opting into the $6.99/month plan. As required, I registered my printer using the ** Smart app and understood that ink would be shipped automatically when supplies ran low.Several months later, I received an email from ** instructing me to update my account information to continue receiving ink deliveries. I followed those instructions on *** website.Approximately two weeks later, I received a brand-new ** printer at my homecompletely unsolicited. I did not request, order, or authorize the shipment of a replacement printer. When I contacted ** support to report this, I was told that I had unknowingly entered into a new contract and that I would be required to pay $120 to cancel it, or continue making monthly payments.This is unacceptable. I did not agree to any new device, plan, or binding agreement. Sending me a printer without my consent and then demanding payment or imposing cancellation fees is deceptive and coercive.I am requesting the cancellation of any contract or account changes related to the unauthorized printer. ** to stop sending me emails requesting money. Written confirmation that I am not financially liable for the unsolicited printer or for any related fees.
