I bought a pair of Crucial Ballistix memory sticks in 2006 through Amazon. After a few months, the computer stopped booting up, as was eventually known to happen with this model memory.
I called customer service and they explained that I would have to settle for a credit on account. I was angry because they did not have any product that could replace it in terms of specs, and they did not have any other product that interested me. I decided I would pursue it with headquarters and discontinued the conversation with Marcy, their head of customer service. I bought new memory from a different supplier and didn't bother to return the crucial memory because they had not offered an acceptable settlement yet.
A couple months later I figured I didn't have time to goof around with it anymore and I called Marcy again to accept her terms. At this point she informed me that she would only offer me $200 of credit instead of the over $300 I had spent on the memory because I had waited to send her the memory. I was irate, but I sent the memory in anyway. I recently called to redeem the credit and was told that all store credits were cancelled after 1 year and that there was no way for me to redeem my credit.
