Dell phone no???

@Sillywabbit None of that works for me and no one at Dell gives a monkey's ***. They don't even have a way of recognizing my attempts to contact them.

@ffony honestly they've tried automating the process more over the years and it just makes things harder. I think they actually want you to give up. But of all the OEMs I've worked with, Dell is one of the better ones.

@Sillywabbit That seems to be exactly their intent.

@Virgo79 What bull - does your comment have any real meaning in everyday language?

@ffony juststick with Dell, youre doing good🤦‍♂

@Virgo79 Stick with Dell? At the moment I just seem to be stuck with them; incommunicado. Their contact options don't work. As soon as I can find a way to return this machine I'm done with them.

Pencil, pen & paper together with an efficient post office and publicly accessible phone lines were a lot more useful than most of this nonsense.

@SStarfish Maybe there's no one there at all. I can't even digitally access their return facility to get rid of this machine. Perhaps they've shut that down.

@ffony oh 😳
