      I bought a surface pro 5 with extended warranty, my first surface had some weird white spot appear after a while so Microsoft replaced it. After my extended warranty was up i had a update pushed to my surface. After updated it shut down and would never go past the Microsoft logo screen. I called in and they told me to do a bunch of step which none of them work. When i looked online it seams that the ssd had died and is a common wide spread issue i was told i would have to pay put of pocket $450 to replace my replacement. It disappointing that Microsoft expect the customer to have to pay for something that was defective.

      I am rejecting this response because:First off Im in ******* they has someone from ********* responding to me. Second nothing is being resolved. Its the same thing over and over i must pay for the issue caused by them. How can i have any thing to do with a SSD failure. Microsoft push an update one i clicked update it loaded restarted and that was the end. I keep telling them the same thing and they refuse to take responsibility. Just keeps saying it cost this much for use to give you another refurbished one. This has been going on 2 years. I am very disappointed in the way they treat their customers

      I called Microsoft in the morning as requested, and after being given the run-around over the phone, let me explain, I called Microsoft and spent two hours on the phone and spoke to 5 phone reps (i was given 3 ticket order numbers), and the operators were shuffling me between the same departments, and no-one knew what I was talking about acting clueless, and asking me the same questions. I agreed to the call recording, so there's proof of my claim in their database. The complaint is based on me getting $138.1 refunded for a charge I did not consent to. I spent 2 hours on the phone with the operator, so understand why it's so infuriating that they now email me telling me they can't refund my money (in spite of the many times I was told I would get a refund). The email claimed that this was at the fault of their refund policy. I agreed to the call recording, so there's proof of my claim in their database. The complaint is based on me getting $138.1 refunded for a charge I did not consent for. On the charge to my debit card, the Xbox payment department said was for a Microsoft Office Business subscription, and the Microsoft office payment department claimed it was for a Video Game (i don't own an Xbox, or play games). The Laws do not condone fraud(it's a criminal act), and that action is the debit charge to my card without my consent.

      Caller did not offer refund and gave me an attitude I guess Microsoft must be lowering standards on hiring good customer service. The Phone person there gave me the run around. I canceled all my Microsoft Service, If I experience any lash back (from System Admin Managers) on my paid for product (computer)I will be report an antitrust lawsuit on the company through FTC. 

       

      I have reason to believe they would do such a thing...

      I never purchased a Game. I don't play Games, and I much less see the worth in spending money on a game, being that I will not use it. I disapprove; keep the money; I moved out of your cloud and canceled all memberships by simply changing my credit card. In the scheme of things, you would have made more money from me in the long run by just giving me the refund that is rightfully mine. I'm usually more polite about these matters. Still, the customer service was disrespectful and just poor representations of a company that allegedly has over 17 million partners and 75 million customers.

      Xbox charged me for the amount of $16.19 on July 29th for a subscription that is supposed to be charged for on the second of every month. I called 3 times to resolve this issue and being hung up on all 3 times because of phone issues with Xbox not me and just get hung up on because I asked questions about this issue. A red flag was thrown by me after I asked why this wasnt taken out on July 2nd like it has been in the past but Xbox couldnt give me a straight answer and Xbox saying that I got a refund however I never received or never asked for a refund on July 2nd which rises my concerns that someone hacked my account or that Xbox messed up on my renewal and decided to charge me now instead of on the renewal date.

      I understand that Microsoft has notified their internal operations of their poorly managed support. 

      However the purpose of contacting this Better Business Bureau office was to obtain a way to submit a complaint regarding the poor service that I received from their ********** call center .  Microsoft does not offer a way to provide vfeed back on poor service from their call centers .  So I was forced to contact the BBB in their area.

      For Microsoft to reply to this complaint stating that they have contacted their internal operations  does not resolve this matter. 

      I am asking that Microsoft provide a way for me to provide feedback on poor services that I have received from the *********** call center. 

      This reply does not apply to my request. There was no resolution presented  to me.

      Microsoft has setup a onedrive account and is collecting my data. I've checked their website and to delete or remove the account I have to log in. Unfortunately I have no idea where this account came from and can't find a way to contact anyone at the company to resolve this. I tried sending a message through the email link they provided and my email bounced back as if it can't be sent. In the past I have had to delete this program from my computer for being very invasive. I have never liked the idea of saving data on someone else's computer and would never sign up for this service. It is being forced on me through automatic enrollment and an inability to access or control the account. Didn't Microsoft get sued for forcing their products on everyone in the past. The account is on my email *************************** I have 4 computers 2 cellphones 2 Playstations and 4 tablets i have said no to this program many times, no means no and it's very inappropriate to use automatic enrollment to side step someone's decision.

      I was an xbox live subscriber for many many years, and in those years I have purchased quite a few digital video games. i have recently cancelled my xbox live gold subscription and have been informed that without xbox live i cannot play the digital games i purchased regardless if i download them or not. since i paid to purchase the games and i cannot access them anymore i requested refunds which have all been denied because i was out of the two week window allotted for refund requests. As i have said some of the games i purchased years ago but cannot play anymore. i have sent emails and called the support hotline to no avail my support request number is **********. I don't feel it is unreasonable to ask for a refund of the games since microsoft was happy to take my money to buy them in the first place and are now denying me access to them without paying more money for a subscription i no longer want.

      Yesterday my Xbox live account was permanently suspended for harassment. I dont play Xbox too often anymore and I havent played Xbox in the past few days so I dont know what could have caused this permanent ban. I submitted an appeal but to no surprise it was instantly denied. The only thing I could think of that could have got me banned was my Sea Of Thieves account being banned at the end of May because I shared accounts with friends to use their cosmetics which they thought was fishy and banned me on there too. I dont care about sea of thieves anymore and I would really just like to get my microsoft Xbox account back so I can play video games other than sea of thieves since I was removed from that one for no apparent reason also. Thank you.

      I am rejecting this response because:I know for a fact that on my Xbox account (ddthekidd) there has been ZERO harassment, threats or abuse coming from my account.  I would please ask that you check all my messages, group posts, history and anything related to communicating to other players because I know I did nothing wrong.  Thank you

      Sincerely,

      Cannot reach Microsoft technical support regarding issues with my domain business account. If you call in, the phone system runs you through a bunch of voice messages and than transfers you to hold music for hours.Cannot open a ticket because their admin pages don't work.
