How to file a complaint in the UK against Microsoft!
Hello, I have been having multiple problems with Windows updates, that appeared ever more often and completely destabilized my system for months on end! I had a lot of interactions with the Microsoft technical service, which took many hours of my time, were very stressful and tiring! Recently I asked for compensation, as this created a lot of havoc in my life, needlessly! A lady called back and, although in a previous phone call she didn't say no, this time she started to talk about Notifications (???), and then said, no, Microsoft didn't think that I deserved any compensation, therefore I want to file a complaint with whoever here in the UK deals with complaints against such companies. She didn't give me that information, therefore I now demand that someone does! At a certain point Windows had to be re-installed, which took most part of a day, as the agent had to guide me through the installation. He wanted to access my computer, but nowadays one has all one's financial life and more in the system, so I couldn't allow him to do that. It was a huge mess, and I hope this will never happen again. Lots of complaints online............ Microsoft has to understand that it is OK to fix what needs to be fixed, but this was a mess and should not have happened. At a certain point in time, I would do an update in the evening, but another one was already announced in the morning. In order to try to stabilize the system I was advised to uninstall certain updates, but, as I was restarting my computer, another one would be installed. Absolutely madness!
I know that in the UK there are official organizations that deal with all sorts of complaints against companies, and the companies have to provide the customer with all the details, so, please send them to me! Regards, [Moderator note: Personal Information removed]
