1. Service provided: Headphone jack replacement2. Reason for review: Huge 3 month waiting period for a part, only for nothing to happenLet me ask you a question as the reader – how long would you expect a customer wait before being informed about the availability/lack of availability of a part: A couple of weeks, a month perhaps, what about 3 whole months… It took 3 months NOT to actually source the part (which may have been acceptable) but to instead inform me that the part would not be available in the first place. If the part would not be available, clearly, I should have been told months beforehand that they were struggling to get the part and to inform me of my options as the customer. They may (assumption only) not have even attempted to get the part in the first place?Throughout this time, let us talk about customer support: As you can imagine, there were multiple follow-ups sent, first to the chat bot (before I knew that the bot had not recorded things properly) and then to customer support. I simply received basic messages saying that they would check this with their team; only for nothing to happen…At the very end of this period, I was told that the part was received and that I should expect to receive a quotation. Eagerly waiting for a repair quotation, I instead received a quotation for a replacement pair of headphones which costs hundreds of pounds and was significantly more than my original pair…To close off this situation, I finally received a call from a knowledgeable and respectful individual who stated that his colleague had made a mistake (one of many) and that in fact they had not received the part…Despite respecting the caller, this phone call of course should have happened months earlier and would have saved this totally unnecessarily long waiting period.
