      A replacement was agreed and "Processed" on the 21th by ** but then they're denying to keep going on that case and they closed it and duplicated on a new case. That's not legal it's a clear case of not honorying warranty after they agreed to ship the product.

      Im having issues with my printer and their instant ink service. I called customer care because they are overcharging me. I was met with a representative who repeatedly ignored my responses. Made me repeat answers over and over again and when I requested a supervisor 6 times, he denied me. I wanted to speak with someone regarding the printer, the charges for the last couple of months, and how to correct the overcharging but it was not corrected. After 30 minutes of arguing with a perfectly calm but completely inept employee I disconnected the call with no resolution. It should not be a full time job to collect refunds from companies who over bill.

      Hi I purchased a hp laptop from Best Buy last year and now it is giving me issues constantly freezing , and the screen is blanking on and off ! I also was not aware of this crack on the side on the laptop where the charging plug for the laptop goes which makes it difficult to charge ! It has been 11 months and I would like to get a replacement device !

      ** is aware that Customer disagrees with our findings.  Escalations Case Manager explained the manufacturer's 1 year warranty and offered customer a repair on April 29th, 2025.  Customer declined offer for the repair because of the costs involved. Since repair was the only resolution option available, Case Manager closed the Case on May 2nd, 2025.

      It is not just a case of the laptop being out of warranty.  The nature of the damage to the laptop was not covered by the warranty.  According to the terms of the warranty agreement, units are NOT covered "as a result of accident, misuse, liquid spills, abuse, contamination, improper or inadequate maintenance or calibration, or other external causes."( ******************************************************)  This is why the Case Manager offered the paid repair instead.

      I bought a new HP printer today, that did not work from minute-one. I contacted ** tech support and they attempted to fix things by taking control of my computer, a standard procedure. However the tech was significantly incompetent. After repeatedly failing, he made numerous changes to my computer, changed my McAfee security settings, changed my Defender security settings, changed my WiFi settings, and many more changes I couldn't follow. He was clearly way out of his depth. Ultimately he made a WiFi change that disconnected the control he had, and left me with a damaged computer. I want a tech out here to fix it. I spent NINE HOURS today dealing with countless people at **, none of them native English speaking so I had difficulty understanding them. They were all baffled by one another, countless PLEASE HOLD followed by disconnects. Anyway, I want my new and expensive home computer fixed by a field technician, so I can watch what is being done.

      I purchased a HP printer and was signed into a trial of their instant ink. Every printer I have purchased prior comes with standard cartridges for ink and there was never any disclosure that if I did not continue to pay for the instant ink that my printer would not work anymore. I have tried to discuss this issue and was told that there is nothing they can do. I do not have the money currently to be able to pay for the subscription, nor new cartridges or at this point a new printer. All I want is to be supplied with standard cartridges so that I can actually print something...

      ** participates in false advertising and deceptive practices regarding the ** Deskjet 2842e printer.They knowingly and intentionally program this printer with a hardware-level "Dynamic Security" system that blocks the use of any refilled, non-** ink cartridge, or any cartridge that has been removed more than twice from the printer, even after disabling the Cartridge Protection option through the settings. This crucial information is either not clearly disclosed at the time of purchase or not disclosed at all. Meaning I am unable to use ** cartridges that I have accidentally taken out too many times while trying to resolve a printer error, nor can I use refilled or third-party cartridges without the printer rejecting them, throwing error codes, and refusing to print. ** effectively forces consumers to continuously purchase only expensive, new **-branded ink cartridges in order to use the printer that was already paid for.** also advertises a "free instant ink for 2 months" promotion with the printer purchase. This offer is misleading. ** intentionally does not clearly disclose that users will not actually receive any new ink unless they first use all of the starter ink cartridges included with the printer. The Instant Ink cartridges that are shipped also require an active paid subscription to even function. This means that customers are effectively forced to pay for ink that was advertised as "free" and included with the printer. If the subscription is canceled, the "free" ink already received becomes useless and the printer stops printing altogether. These practices are deceptive, anti-consumer, and in violation of fair advertising standards. I am requesting a full refund of the purchase price for the ** DeskJet 2842e printer and a refund for the Instant Ink subscription I was forced to purchase in order to use my "free" instant ink. If ** will not resolve this matter directly, I am prepared to escalate the issue to additional consumer protection agencies.

      HP InstaInk keeps charging my card even though my account is in good standing. I was charged from 8/24 to 12/24 even though I had no printer. In March 2025 I purchased a new printer I was given a credit for months of being charged and not using the service due to having no printer at all yet each moth they have charged me. On March 26 they charged my card $11.11, then again on April 8th $11.11 was taken from my bank again. yet no refund nor credit has been applied as promised. Today on 4/28/25 another charge of $3.90 supposedly for a paper shipment that I never received, after charging me for service from 8/24-3/25 when I had no printer connected to their service.

However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles.

    When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.

    BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period. BBB Business Profiles are subject to change at any time. If you choose to do business with this business, please let the business know that you contacted BBB for a BBB Business Profile.

    As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business. Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation. BBB charges a fee for BBB Accreditation. This fee supports BBB's efforts to fulfill its mission of advancing marketplace trust.
