Windows Licence - KUK-00001?

FWIW I've emailed the Customer Care team using a special high-bandwidth low-latency out-of-band multiplexed backchannel email address they have provided the moderators with and highlighted the issues in this thread. I can't promise speedy action or indeed any action - they are insanely busy. :)

That's great, thanks! I appreciate they're very busy at the moment, but an acknowledgment of the issue/email would go a long way. Don't want to have to sit on the phone and clog up even more time.

Good to hear. Just hope it doesn't start to affect more people. I'd imagine the last thing they need right now is more emails and calls about changes that are normally done by the customer. Or conversely people needing refunds because they hadn't realised they were charged initially. But again good to hear it has been passed on.

I noticed the same thing when I amended my order yesterday, for an amount of £18. I’ll wait and see the outcome on this thread before I contact them directly.

I would advise contacting them yourself.
I second that. Wait times on email are about a week or so. But in my experience I have got responses and they can change specs on their end. Calls are about an hour wait/hold time aswell.

I'm approaching 2 weeks without any reply now so think I'm gonna have to just sit on the phone for an hour or whatever. The customer service has been so poor, no matter how busy they are.

Really didn't want to post this on the forum because I completely understand PCS are very busy at the moment. Email 2 weeks ago and had no reply, sent a message in the support inbox over a week ago now and had no reply either. Yes in the context to the price of the unit, the £18 added on is very little, but it's the principle.

I know people will request going on the phone, but again, this will only impact my charges as i'll get billed for sitting on hold for 1+ hours. To receive this level of service for the price of investment is a little disgusting in truth. Most frustratingly, is that other users seem to be getting replies on this issue and i've had absolute silence.

@WhatCanIKeep? I noticed the below line on one of my sub-orders and having read your comment I sent a mail with the subject line 'Order 1900909 - Mustafa' this morning and have just got the below response.

'Thanks for getting in touch, as the microsoft windows is a digital license it goes by the parts you choose with the build as you have made changes to the order if the code changes at the same time the parts do, this would increase the price for the windows 10 licence and therefore the price for the windows is correct and we cannot refund that amount'

Are you able to help? Thanks in advance :)

Yeah, sorted it for me for aswell. I was told as my order had been placed before the price increase, the original price would be honoured.
