The dumbest website on the planet!
I have an expectation from companies that deal in technology, that they will have a functional website! I know that's a real stretch, but you might think that if someone is selling an item that costs $35.00 per unit to produce at prices in excess of $300.00 that they can then afford to have a functional website. WRONG! The first failing of the web site was to accept my email address. You see, it has two sections divided by the use of a period (or dot in web speak), because of this it would not see me as having a valid email address. The second failure was the fact that I had purchased the unit used on ebay, and not at a recognized retailer during their prescribed time period. I was directed eventually, after a couple long distance calls to a number where I could talk to a sales associate of sorts, to try to explain these strange goings on. I guess it is some sort of an anomally to obtain a unit used and desire to upgrade it. After five long distance calls, three different email go rounds, and a fax, I was left with nothing. NO label, No directions, No contact method to get the unit upgraded, just the haunting feeling there will occur a billing to my credit card of an action never performed and need I mention the unit which doesn't function, due to the missing chip upgrade, which will allow it to function under a current operating system.
I guess the fault was mine, I trusted the hype of the unit in the publications, and it may have worked for a limited time, about 6 months, if the unit you were using it with was not upgraded to keep up with progress. I guess the fact that they offered an upgrade package. (Change a chip-$90.00) was a false hope on my part that they actually meant to perform such an action. And the problems with the web pages seem now to have been by design rather than by accident. What better way to keep from having to perform a service, blame the requester!
Consequently I have moved all my accounts to a new credit card,sent formac a final opportunity letter, and am composing a letter to the State Attorney General explaining the situation to date.
I am considering creating a product that will only work under an outdated operating system, making it available only in a used market place format and offering an upgrade program that you can't access, but you won't know until after I have your credit card information, And I'm looking for a name for it, FORMAC is already taken. So send in your suggestions folks! I can't wait to hear from you! send your credit card information to me in care of "Bet you thought this was a real offer didn't you.com" and stand by for our informative reply.
Read on, I'm sure at some point I will give you reason to respond, even if only to disagree!
