why did i use overclockers.co.uk
ordered items on the 17th of Decemeber, not here by last week, so i phoned amtrak, who were ment to be delivering it and overclockers had put the wrong postcode on the items and they had recieved them back...on the 21st of Decemeber. but no-one told me. I have been charged for the items. The Amtrak representative said he contacted overclockers about the mistake and had arranged the order to be resent out. It will be there on monday. today, tuesday, i phoned amtrak again. And was passed to another phone number. I asked about my package. And overclockers had put the wrong address on it again, this time it went to the same house number and street, but in the wrong city. And the amtrak representative said they were unable to inform overclockers themselves and i'd have to do it;... even though the representative last week did it??? looking on the overclockers website for contacts and they no longer accept emails, but prefer to use phone. But phoning any of their numbers results in nothing but engaged tones. What am I to do?? |

This 6600GT is going to get here someday, hopefully. |

If I was in your shoes I would have cancelled the order and got the card from somwhere else. An e-tailer that doesn't accept emails is IMO doing something far wrong and won't last long. |

I've used some comapnies whcih take a month to decide if your returned good are faulty or not! As for email, poor service can only result in "abusive" emails and it's not good sense to see the problem as the "emails", not the poor service! |

Well I shall never use them after they sent out something which was significantly different from it's description and then had the cheek to refuse to refund me the shipping as I was returning the item as unwanted. I eventually got a full refund after I threatened to take them to the Small Claims Court, a move no customer should ever have to take. As for the OP's issues, I can only assume they have monkeys working for them, I mean how poor to get an address wrong twice. |

Happened to me also, twice they got my address wrong after TWICE having to call them to correct it. They cost me a fortune on calls as i am in Ireland. I got a CPU cooler from them over the Xmas period and it arrived damaged, now waiting for the RMA to arrive and see if it's ok. Email support is gone, you can't get through to them on the phone....people have been waiting hours to get through, disgrace. |

And they where one of the first companies to offer kit you could only read US reviews about, and drool. If these "small" companies didn't exist do we think we'd be getting discounts from the bigger companies (pc world aside). |
