Too long to read: Wanted to save costs my putting my old GPU into a new build. I didn't really get what I asked and paid for. This dirty, sly, thieving behaviour is shameful. Now I have to put up big money for a new card I guess. Well played guys.
After purchasing new parts for a pc build I called West End PC Repair to remove my GPU and Hard drive from my old pc and place it into the new build. I'm still unsure why my GPU isn't working in the new PC. It seems to be running but the motherboard doesn't recognise it or something. I wasn't told of any concerns regarding this instead they must of just hoped that I wouldn't notice any difference. And they proceeded to take my money. Very deceiving and sly business practices in my opinion.
Upset I phoned for help and was told I'd get a call back later in the day. I called back again and was told the same thing. I didn't receive a call that day. But no big problem there I can wait a day.
After trying some of my own troubleshooting and having some issues installing drivers I called again the next day just before lunch, more frustrated this time and suggested it might be because a 32 bit OS was installed instead of a 64 bit and perhaps that was why it wasn't working properly. Thinking it might be because the drivers might need a 64 bit OS. This wasn't the case. My honest stupidity but I genuinely thought that might be the issue. Which I expressed. The tech guy then told me in a very condescending and rude tone "I was looking for an excuse to why it's not working". Projecting his own incompentencies onto me. Because he still hasn't got a clue why the GPU won't run properly as of time of posting. You can understand why then I raised my voice and swore. (I mean this is glasgow) He then told me I'm "F****ng A*s**le" and that "he can shout and swear louder than I can" like a big child. Yes, seriously haha. He then hung up on me.
Now I'm sure Archy will spin this and say this is a totally unfair review like he has to other negative reviews and rewrite the narrative cleverly. Archy's the salesman of the two who run this together as far I've gathered. His BMW is beautiful. I'm sure he'll desribe me in some negative light one way or another. But please beware. I can't express how disappointed and angered I am ( I mean I'm banging out this review you know?) To have an i7 8700k alongside an intel graphics chip. What am I meant to do with that? Besides laugh fml.
The only pro I can mention is that the cable management inside the case is really quite nicely done.
After posting this review on Google It was responded to with the following :
"Customer asked us to upgrade his pc, bought parts himself. His old graphics card for some reason not working. But I did not take anything his card is installed in new pc just not working. Just by mistake forgot to mention to him. Card which is not working is with the customer. Then called us and swore over the phone. Which is completely unacceptable. Leaving one star is even unfair as gave him home pick and drop service and also put up with extremely dirty house."
Let's pick this apart. My house isn't the hilton Mr Moneybags is used to, granted but calling it extremely dirty is an manipulative overstatement. My review is going nowhere. Not to mention all sorts of petty and catty. My house isn't dirty your business practices are. So come on down to West End PC Repair so you they can insult your home take your money and not do their job properly. Why don't you leave the girly put downs to girls and get your hand out your arse and the other out my pocket.
I mean really? I called your behaviour dirty so you call my home dirty? This just screams "NOOO YOU!!". So textbook. I told you these guys were childish. read more
