    Mythlogic warranty

    @mythlogic

    I put in a ticket for repairs months ago, Ticket #: 8123823 . This was back in August. The problem has escalated and now my machine won't even turn on. I can't get hold of the company via phone call, email or support ticket. It seems like Mythlogic only responds on this forum and so I'll try here. I paid for the 3 year warranty precisely in case this happened, so I need to send it in for repairs.

    Please respond ASAP so I can start getting my $2500 machine repaired. Thanks!

    We will get you a label emailed to you to get the laptop back to fix the part.

    Thanks

    @Kreuzweir - do a dispute with your bank, Mythlogic is a mess atm and won't honor your warranty unless pushed like this on the forum

    Thanks for responding. I've yet to receive the email, either at the email address from which I sent the ticket, or the one associated with the account from which I ordered the laptop.

    It's kinda pointless to complaint now. Myth has a really bad track record for customer service here.

    Do a bank dispute, it's faster that way.

    I bought the machine back in 2015 and purchased the 3 year warranty. Mythlogic actually repaired it once before in February before whatever's gone wrong on their end happened. A bank dispute in this case probably wouldn't be justified, but if they're not going to honor the warranty I'd like a refund for that part of my purchase. With that said, I'm hoping Mythlogic comes through since this is the first bad experience I've had with them.

    @mythlogic Still no email yet. Please send me that shipping label.

    There are three threads merely on the first page of the Clevo re-seller forum about issues in gaining assistance from Mythologic, which appear to still be unresolved (Except through credit card disputes). There are also more threads further back about similar issues. It would be nice for this issue to have a more positive outcome... Good luck.

    Um, did you not see that the OP purchased the machine in 2015? They are long past the point of being able to do any sort of bank dispute.

    mm, doesn't some bank allow you to do a claim on services sold even if it was long time ago?

    Did you receive my laptop? If you did, what is the status of it? I have not received an update on the RMA.

    RMA # 55A43B58 if that helps.

    Thanks!

    No this has not been resolved. @mythlogic has not logged in since January 9th, has not responded on facebook (although he has seen it), and has my laptop. I'm going to give it one more week and then send in a Demand letter stating that they either need to repair my computer or send me back my broken computer plus the cost the remaining years of the warranty that they aren't honoring. I don't want to take this to small claims court, but if that's what it takes to get my machine back and in working order, I will.

    It says that you were on this forum as on Sunday the 21st, so I know you've read this. Please respond to my inquiries. You have my computer and I really need it back. Thanks

    Update:

    At 4am last Sunday I received a message from Mythlogic stating that they were waiting on a keyboard and it should be ready in 2 weeks. They promised to keep me updated, so we'll see.

    If their not responding, I wouldn’t delay it anymore. From what I’ve seen so far, you’ve gave them ample time to respond but with no success so I’d contact your local authorities and take this matter further. Hope you get a positive outcome.

    Update:

    I got my laptop back. They cleaned it up and installed a fresh operating system but little else. They gave me a report and said that some of the repairs were not covered under warranty and that the ones that were required parts that would take 3 to 5 weeks to receive.

    According to the timestamp on the pictures they sent me, it's clear that they didn't even look at my laptop until I started talking about sending in a police report. Perhaps if they had done it in November when I sent in the laptop, I would have had the covered parts. No consideration was given, and no apology or explanation was given for all the extra time it took.

    Whatever reputation this company used to have, it is now an embarrassment to the industry as far as I am concerned. For those of you who still have outstanding orders with them, you can still get your machine back, but new customers should stay away.

    Thanks for the update. I think everyone should share their experiences so other people on here are aware of who to watch out for. Glad you got your machine back.

    This company is a joke of its former self and should just be banned from NBR and declared a hostile reseller.

    For some reason, I really like that description. Hope you don't mind if I borrow that...
    :cool:

    Yup. A lot of people complain/note that HIDevo is a little more expensive, but they have a good rep and appear to be here for the long run. I am a strong supporter of small businesses and startups, but I certainly give a company's reputation significant weight in my decisions.
    Saving a little money sometimes just buys a headache.

    HIDEvo is more expensive due to heatsink work.

    Same as obsidian PC.

    Both reps are active in the forum.

    Imo I would pay a bit more to get properly fitted heatsink from the start. Plus both are prema reseller.



    Prema has severed contract with mythlogic, so that's another reason to why you shouldn't buy from them.

    The company was dissolved last year. They don't even exist anymore. Just a shell of their members or one person is probably doing work if they are threatened with legal action.
    Someone posted proof last year that they 'applied' for dissolution.
