Seagate external HD
Manipulation and disgusting business practices

I've an additional HD 320 show that I bought lately. I had been utilizing it to "Back Up" vitally important documents. I'd a disastrous HD inability of my notebook, and so I changed the HD and restored the OS. Once I started rebuilding my documents which were "Backed Up" about the exterior push that push failed aswell. It started beeping and seemed as if it had been attempting to spin up but wouldn't. I approached Tech-Support and under is just a log of the discussion. It amazes me how these big businesses believe it is ok to control and fool its clients. I'll NEVER make use of this tricky business, with particular dubious business methods. To make sure that this business understands the "small man" (customer) won't usually standby and allow them escape withit. Section of my thinking to protest listed here is to discover if anybody comes with an address or POC that my lawyer may contact to deliver formal communication. After I create the endeavor via their customer support division, I obtain a common e-mail that's never responded to. I am wondering this really is because of their understanding of their dubious business training, and and totally obsurd customer support

Here Is The transcript. (unaltered)
