How do i get a response or reply form sony service centre

Hopefully someone can help me...

I sent in my prs-650 for repair (the guy said it would be exchanged) well over a month ago, and on the track and trace it was delivered at 10:45am on 31st march, to the Laredo/TX service centre - and signed for.

I have looked on the eService website ( https://eservice.sony.com/webrma/web/index.do ) to check the status - but the Sony Event ID number that i was giving is not recognised..

I have since emailed (support@ebookstore.sony.com - they always replied with in 24 hours when i was asking about the fault and what i had to do to get it repaired) them 3 times (over the last 2 weeks) asking what is the status of the repair/exchange, and also emailed the Sony Listens and others i found on here ( sonylistens@am.sony.com, evelyn.perez@am.sony.com, valerie.motis@am.sony.com, Steve.Haber@am.sony.com ) when i got no reponse to the 3 emails, and not one reply..

This is the worst service i have ever had from any company ever.

Does anyone have the contact details of a manager/supervisors or someone else up the chain of command in the company - maybe the CEO of the company ???

They now have my money from the purchase of the ereader, and the ereader itself !!!

Sorry to hear they still have not answered. It certainly is a shame. Even though Sony is known for their bad CS, this is worse than I heard of before. Not even answering mails is extremely rude and stupid.

It looks like you will have to send your mail to Steve Haber.

I cross my fingers for you and hope it will work out in time for your trip!

Can you not find a telephone number to contact them directly, rather than email. Given the length of time and no response you probably need to start shouting ....

I emailed both Valerie Motis and Steve Haber on the 25th april, a week today. I would have thought that i would have had a reply in a couple of days at least... but nothing... not even a response to say they were looking into it..

As for getting it back before my trip.. i am currently in AU, i am off to NZ on wednesday, then argentina in june.. so from the experience i have had so far from sony i very much doubt if i will have it for any of my travels, and am wondering if i will even see it again !!!

Definitely call. Customer service is 10 times more incompetent by email than by phone.

I hope you get better results than I had with my computer, which had a recall on the outlet plug which shocks my hand every time I touch it. I requested a replacement, and never got one. Every time I call them, they put me on hold for an hour and then come back and tell me I already got one, but I never did. They refuse to send me another after three separate calls to complain.

Are you kidding? How often does he have to email you? Showing up here and always writing the same text in your posts doesn't do the trick.

I'd like to see a post by someone you did help!

Well, I got a call today about my defective adapter (after using the email link) and will receive it in a week! No more shocks when I touch the adapter to my computer! I have been trying to get one for over 6 months, so maybe the email works. I will let you know when I get it, to be certain.
