Customer service address
Does anyone have an address for a CEO or such animal that I can send a letter to. I've had many problems with Laredo support and with customer relations.
Customer Relations ays they can't do anything and to deal with Laredo which is where my problem lies. |

Valerie Motis handles PR for the Reader division: valerie.motis[*]am.sony.com
The head of the Reader division is Steve Haber: Steve.Haber[*]am.sony.com Someone claiming to be from Sony just posted in this thread, you could try emailing them. You can also try making a tweet @sonyelectronics, but I'm not sure they will notice you. |

You people are good. I've already received a phone call from sony headquarters and if the follow up is as good as promised I will be completely satisfied.

Ask them if they can comment on the general lack of stocks and whether new models are coming

Has anyone had problems with getting ereaders repaired. I sent my prs-650 in, it was recieved at sony Laredo/TX repair center on 31/3.. was signed for..
When i put the Event ID into the esupport website there is no record of that number. I have emailed them 3 times (including proof that it was delivered to them on 31/3) over the last week and have had no reply to my emails asking what the repair status is - where before within 24 hours they would usually reply when asking what i should do to get it repaired under warranty. How long should i wait before trying to take this further as its been in sony's possession for 3 weeks now and the guy said it would be exchanged so i would think it would only take a couple of days to sort that out ???? I am currently in australia, go to new zealand in 2 weeks, then to argentina a month after that, asked them to deliver to NZ as it would give them a month to sort it out, but i dont want it sent to argentina as stuff often doesnt turn up when sent from overseas. And i just want a working ereader back. I purchased it because i travel heaps and didnt want to drag books around anymore. I did provide all info they asked for with the faulty unit when i sent it in - description of fault, copy of receipt, sony event ID on outside of box etc.. I am wondering if they have lost it !!

In any case, it's always better to call them, talk to a real person (probably in India, but alive). |

Pretty sure they won't jump out of their usual hardware refresh cycle, so we shouldn't expect new models sooner than early fall. I wonder if they are really throwing in the towel in the U.S. Their inability to deliver is getting totally ridiculous. I am positive that the super-high demand for their product is not the reason. Not in the U.S. anyway, as the authorized resellers are all frustrated and puzzled by Sony's behavior, hanging up discontinuation notices on most Reader related products. At least in Japan they found decency to apologize (with a stupid explanation that the demand was unexpectedly high), but here in the U.S. Sony's representatives ("Sony listens"?) pretend to be deaf and mute.

It just annoys me that there is no status on their website, they havent bothered to contact me when it was recieved or even bothered to reply to my emails. It is very unprofessional, especially from a big company like sony !!! |

Sony response t my 3 month back and forth
The addresses you provided worked...at least one of them did. I suspect it was the SH one. Within 24 hours I had a brand new PRS 650 in my hands....shipped overnight air. Several phone calls from the troubleshooter made things happen.
I will remember all of you for your help. I can now go on vacation today with a loaded with books ereader. |
