Urgent Complaint Regarding Undelivered Package and Poor Customer Service

Apple - Urgent Complaint Regarding Undelivered Package and Poor Customer Service
Apple - Urgent Complaint Regarding Undelivered Package and Poor Customer Service - Image 2
Contains 1 confidential file for company representatives

Dear Apple Customer Support,

I am writing to express my deep frustration and disappointment regarding a recent issue with my order and the extremely poor customer service I have encountered throughout this process.

Despite waiting for my delivery, my package never arrived, and to make matters worse, neither Apple nor FedEx has provided any meaningful assistance. I spent over three hours trying to resolve this issue with FedEx, but it was a complete waste of time.

Not only was I left without a solution, but the service I received was dismissive and unhelpful.

Whats most upsetting is that FedEx claimed they attempted delivery and provided a photo of my house as evidence. However, I was home the entire time, sitting inside, and I personally saw the delivery vehicle pull up to my residence and leave without anyone stepping out to make the delivery. This raises serious concerns about the integrity of the delivery process. Was my package stolen?

Why couldn't the delivery person make a simple attempt to ring the doorbell?

This entire experience has been incredibly disappointing and reflects poorly on both Apple and your delivery partner. As a customer, I expected better service, transparency, and accountability from a brand of Apples stature.

I need immediate clarification on the following:

Where is my package?

What steps will Apple take to ensure I receive it promptly?

How will you address the poor customer experience and lack of support I have experienced?

I hope Apple will take this complaint seriously and act swiftly to resolve the matter. Please get back to me as soon as possible with a concrete solution.

Sincerely,

Nguyen Pham

Order #W151406****

you realise Apple read none of these.... And Apple send the package to FedEx its Fed Exes job to make the delivery NOT Apple, so you are blaming the wrong company entirely.

If I buy something from a seller on ebay and then our post service loses it sure I might contact the seller but its the postal service responsibility, How will Apple address your poor customer service? they will have a good laugh (ex Senior Apple employee of many years). you know its FedEx right?

how on earth can you belive Apple had anything to do with it. I give up, some people eh....

MacBook Pro M2 MULTIPLE PROBLEMS NO RESOLTION

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I have had several issues most annoying. My MacBook Pro M2 out of the two MacBook M2's I having an issue with Find My, sudden disconnection of my wifi connection then computer freezes and shuts down.

Apple engineers have been working on the Find My issue for over 2 months.

VERY slow and frustrating as I have had to stop working to send reports etc.

Not happy with the MacBook's performance.

Pros:
  • Helpful agents friendly and want to see a resolution
Cons:
  • Time its taking to fix this issue whats going on

Preferred solution: the issue fixed in a timely manner. No one seems to have an answer and now my tier 2 agent is moving to another department and I now have to restart the whole incident issue over again. UGH>

User's recommendation: be patient

I worked in the senior team at Apple for over a decade, and 2 months with the engernerring team on it is not very long, let me tell you of 1000's of cases I had that went for years or just never got resolved, I left the place after getting fed up, just like you would do

Thank you. Finally I escalated and escalated and the company has found one of the issues that they say may be indicative of all my problems.

Apple asked me to send my computer to them to replace parts. Let's see what happens. Thank goodness I have a "working" MacBook Pro M2 so I am not without a computer. I'm one of the lucky ones.

If this does not fix the issues, believe me, I am never giving up. And yes, the time it took was way too long. Actually, I counted the emails, and there were over 45, over 32 hours of conversations. As you can see, I don't give up, even though my work keeps me too busy to worry about this.

Also, as a shareholder, I have some contacts within Apple, and again, I will get my computer fixed or replaced. I just have to give it more time.

The agents are always helpful and respectful, but as a company and for the money I spent on a specially built computer, I expect this resolution as soon as possible. Thank you for commenting.

ACTIVATION LOCK is a security feature on newer Macs. It gets triggered if you attempt to Startup from a peripheral hard drive. Locks you out. Apple is the only entity that has the firmware code app

APPLE has refused multiple requests to remedy the situation citing possible violation wrt possession of the machine. No law enforcement has inquired, nor have any complaints been received by APPLE. It has failed in their part of the transaction - - ALSO KNOWN AS BREACH OF CONTRACT AND THEFT OF SERVICES from a legitimate customer.

Original review updated Nov 20, 2024
...And they have a company policy to not undertake this fix unless the customer provides an Apple receipt. I don't have that anymore and Apple made the error of not tying my iCloud address to the purchase, as it always has.

So now, I have an expensive doorstop on my desk. Apple offered and searched their records for the purchase made in 2000 but even they have been unable to produce the receipt for purchase of their product, which was bought directly from them. I do have an AMEX statement which shows the exact amount of the purchase from the Apple Store online. It's not good enough.

I believe Apple should offer some due process on the matter and waive the policy in this case. Granted, I don't have the receipt. I never did because I bought it online so the Apple receipt should have been emailed to me, but it never was. This was verified by both myself and Apple.

The Apple responsibility in the transaction is to be able to verify my purchase as legitimate.

Mine is to provide what should be proof of purchase and create a substantially reasonable doubt that the policy should apply on a non-precedent and confidential basis. Yes, I am pissed off.

They are a rip off with no customer servive

They have no real customer service they give you the most basic information that never helps when you call and because YouTube Music offered me a month free but Apple didnt consider that valid. I cannot now download any more apps or go any further with my phone because of a free month that I got from YouTube Music..

I even talked to an advisor. They told me to cancel my current month subscription pay for the one thats in the red and Ill still have my 30 days. Well thats not how it works America and its companies are all a joke because the problem is, they just pass it down the line to the next person nobody helps. You actually solve the problem.

Apple is one of the worst.

They take money out of your account. You dont even know what its going to and then when they cant take money out of your account, they cry like a little girl or I should say a little child and stop all anything you could do on your phone such as apps of certain accesses, even if they dont even cost anything.

Someone gifted me the Headspace app, I had to enter credit card, app didnt work as stated, it was hard to navigate and had bizarre options for meditation or sleep induction. I tried for a few days and canceled.

But it was a years subscription. Apple wont refund $69.

I tunes gift card

Apple - I tunes gift card - Image 2
Contains 2 confidential files for company representatives

I bought an Apple iTunes gift card at Sainsbury's Camden Town for my nephew in Leeds on the 22nd of July 2024. I had bought it with my debit card for 100.00.

When I gave my nephew a photo of the receipt, I tried to open the back to give him the code. However, I was having problems opening it. When I finally got it open and gave my nephew the code, he wasn't able to redeem it a few minutes later. It had already been redeemed.

This wasn't the first time someone else had used the code and neither myself nor my nephew had used the code. I have spoken to Apple and they confirmed that the gift card had been redeemed by someone else, not me or my nephew, and I am unable to receive any refund.

Took $150 for Subscriptions I didn't authorize

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I was charged almost $150 for two subscriptions from Apple. One of those subscriptions was for Calm.

It is advertised as $69.99 a year/$6.99 a month, which had me believe I was being charged monthly. However, they deducted money for an entire year. The other app was Vixer, which I didn't authorize, coincidentally I was charged $69.99. I requested my money twice from the online system and was denied.

I'm very upset because that money was meant for my children's groceries this week. This is just terrible. A billion-dollar company took my kids' grocery money.

I never even opened the apps. At this point, I'm speechless.
