    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST FedEx being weird

    It’s also interesting to note that FedEx International Priority shipments get priority over International Economy (that PCS uses) even for customs clearance. This was mentioned to me by the FedEx escalation team when my pc went on a EU-wide tour for 2 weeks. They did prioritise it after I...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST FedEx being weird

    If it’s over a week with customs (which has been the case with me in Dublin) calling FedEx and asking for the escalation team has been helpful. They will start a ‘case’ when you escalate. Then all you need to do, is to ask for the status of the case. The online updates are not trustworthy. It...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Third RMA not booting up, error code 02

    If it didn’t, I would have gone back to being superstitious : “Maybe I am not destined to have a PC from PCS” etc.. You have no idea what a relief it is after 3 RMAs. Thanks everyone

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Third RMA not booting up, error code 02

    I had sent everything back previously - because it was intended for a refund. So, even the kettle lead was sent back. Last evening, after my issue was resolved, while Rooting through the accompanying accessories (three packets because of 3 RMAs) I found an extra kettle lead as well. Maybe the...

    Finally got it working. And the resolution was really really really silly:🤭 Changed to a different kettle lead. It was my son who knows nothing about this who suggested “Maybe it’s not getting enough power”.. - and got it from him computer , switched it and viola. Up and running. Thanks for the...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Third RMA not booting up, error code 02

    First RMA: It was BSODs, also a ‘tick’ sound and restarted without BSOD when under normal browsing. While troubleshooting PCS agent thought it could be faulty RAM (4 x 8gb 3600) and took it back. Reseating RAM was done. I had mentioned the potential incompatibility. RMA team replicated BSODs...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Very poor service

    This is not one of those that slipped through the cracks, because my order has been slipping through the cracks for third time now. I am on my 3rd RMA in the last 5 months. Consistently slipping through the cracks on a new build. There is a priority queue for returning repairs. But, I have been...

    UBUYSA answered the question about RMA. For email to [email protected] I attached only the main invoice only. Not including the amendments. And it was cleared in a day's time. Scenario 2: For my 3rd RMA the following happened: It would be worthwhile checking your email (provided to PCS)...

    Sending the Invoice and the RMA details to [email protected] with PC specialist support on copy did sort it out in a day for me in my previous RMA with similar issue.

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST FedEx being weird

    Does PCS provide the express option? That would be great if they do. For my last RMA I mentioned that I am willing to pay more for the express option, but I was told “No”, unless I wanted to book it on my own and get it collected from PCS. It would be a great idea to add the express option for...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST FedEx being weird

    “1 to 2 days to Ireland” is not the case NOW. No one gets anything to Ireland from UK in 1 to 2 days now. That was a pre-Brexit possibility. While PCS is potentially covered from litigation through its T&Cs, it is probably an ethical question for PCS - whether to give its customers a more...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST FedEx being weird

    I have had 3 RMAs in the last 3 months, and all deliveries to Ireland through FedEx. In my experience, the only realistic/trustworthy up[date has been "Out for Delivery". Everything else, including "Scheduled Delivery" date means nothing! I feel your pain, Mine is in Stansted after a week. So...

    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST Returns to Refund - timeline?

    makes sense. In the core rebuild, PCS changed the cpu and rams but not the the GPU or the PSU. The dark reboots happened with with a ‘tick’ noise - similar to the one you hear when some desktops switch on. While I mentioned it to PCS, they didn’t think PSU was at fault.
