I had an advance RMA with Western Digital, they sent me a drive that was lost by UPS, which I didn't find out about until a few weeks went by and I called Western Digital and they said, "oops, sorry UPS lost your drive." So I called up UPS, and they said, "Yep, we lost your drive, sorry about that. You'll have to contact Western Digital for a replacement, they'll take care of it."
So I call up Western Digital, and they apologize for my drive, and they'll send me another one. So a week later my drive arrives, and this is a month or so later, and I see a charge on my credit card for the drive I didn't get (!)
So I call up Western Digital, and a gentleman whose english was not so clear, assured me that once my drive was sent back, I'd receive credits on the transaction, and they apologized again for the mistake.
So I send my drive back and wait patiently for my credit. Instead, I'm billed a second time, for another hard drive!
I call Western Digital and they agree they've received my drive... and they agree they lost a drive, however they can't issue a refund and it must be done through VISA. I suggested to this gentleman, whose english also wasn't so good, that this doesn't make sense and politely asked if I could speak with someone else. He said nobody could help me, that I'd have to call Visa, and wished me a wonderful day before hanging up.
So... we call VISA, and after a month of sending them documentation, and paperwork, they send me a nice letter saying they apologize, but they can't help me with my problem , and that I'd have to call Western Digital to have them sort it out. VISA further states that with my credit card number, they can charge whatever they want and I've agreed to it.
I'm so stressed, I've been charged $140 from Western Digital's mistakes... and anyone you call, you get someone in a country that doesn't care about you or want to help you.
I used to love their hard drives, but the company has the worst customer support ever.
a) Does anyone have any advice for me, on how I can get my money that they've stolen from me?
b) Does anyone have any numbers I can call Western Digital at, where someone might be in North America and possibly care about this problem?
