Subject: Formal Complaint: Software Design Inflexibility and Support Limitations regarding HP LaserJet M140w
To HP Customer Service / Management Team,
I am writing to formally express my dissatisfaction with my recent purchase of an HP LaserJet M140w. While I appreciate the quality of HP hardware, the current software integration and support experience have been significantly below expectations for a loyal customer.
1. Mandatory Software Requirements:
Despite a direct USB connection to my computer, the HP Smart application consistently restricts access to basic scanning functions unless a mandatory account login is completed. As a consumer who has purchased this hardware in full, I believe the fundamental features of the device should be accessible without compulsory account registration or cloud-based authentication.
2. Lack of Inclusivity for Non-Wi-Fi Users:
My current living environment does not have a dedicated Wi-Fi network. During my consultation with your technical support team, I was explicitly informed that this device is "designed for Wi-Fi only" and that without a network, the printer's utility is severely limited. This design philosophy appears to exclude customers in non-standard network environments, rendering a professional tool into an unusable device despite its physical connectivity.
3. Ineffective Technical Support:
The technical support I received failed to provide a practical solution for a non-Wi-Fi setup. The issuance of a case reference number, while a standard procedure, does not address the core issue of device accessibility. For a consumer, the value of the product lies in its immediate utility, not in administrative record-keeping.
4. Observations on Customer Retention:
I believe that true customer loyalty is built on flexibility and ease of use, rather than mandatory software constraints. The current "locked-in" approach creates a barrier between the brand and its supporters. Consequently, this experience has significantly diminished my confidence in choosing HP products for my future professional needs.
Conclusion:
I urge HP to consider the diverse needs of your customers and provide more flexible, offline-capable software solutions for your hardware. I look forward to your constructive response regarding these concerns.
Yours sincerely,
Ms Ho

Subject: Request for assistance: Forwarding my formal complaint to HP UK
Dear Team,
Thank you for your response.
I am writing to clarify that my previous feedback was directed towards HP (Hewlett-Packard). I was forced to seek help through your platform because HP's official website is designed like a maze. It is impossible to find a direct channel for complaints or feedback; their pages simply loop back to the beginning, leaving customers in a state of total frustration.
I am at my wits' end. My brand-new HP LaserJet M140w printer is currently sitting in my home like a piece of useless scrap metal because of their mandatory cloud-login requirements and lack of support for non-WiFi environments.
Since your organization provides a direct route for consumers to resolve issues with companies, I sincerely request that you use your professional channels to forward this complaint to the relevant department at HP UK for immediate follow-up.
I look forward to your assistance in getting a response from HP.
Best regards,
Ms Ho

Got in touch with revolver at 9pm on Monday about an issue with CapoUK, the emailed me back at 09:05am saying they've been in touch with CapoUK and at 09:40am CapoUK refunded me the money I'd be asking for, for 3 weeks.
Capo were ignoring me for 3 weeks.

Resolver allowed an overdue BA flight cancellation claim to be closed. BA admitted liability for eventually and all documentation provided.
Relating to cancelled flight was in 2013. Claim made in 2018. Claim closed 2020 without resolution and compensation - despite BA admitting liability.

Excellent service got a response within 24 hours and my issue was resolved within 48 hours would highly recommend anyone if they have an issue to use this service

No stars given.
Had deleted my account because I was fumigated by them not doing enough to help me take on Luxskin UK. I was hoping that they could persuade Luxskin UK to give out details for me to return back an faulty item to a UK address not the one in China. Unfortunately Luxskin UK had replied back laughing stating no chance the returns address is in China.
Now I had to contact the UKICC for further help.
All Resolver UK did played piggy in the middle transferring emails between me and Luxskin UK. It's the same with Debenhams.
Don't waste your time they're just messagers.
You want real help contact Consumer Direct for national and international Ukicc.

I have been using resolver for years now when they used to have an app, every time I have used their service I have had my money back or an exchange. It’s always been successful. I can’t rate them highly enough fantastic company.

Absolutely pointless.
Shove your copy n paste reply. You are literally pointless,I wasted 8 weeks trying to get a refund from debenhams via resolver, they basically ignored me for 8 week then told me to fck off and wont refund even tho they know they never sent the items. You are 100% in there pockets

Got message on Resolver with a way to resolve my issue.

I tried for weeks to get a refund from a reputable company with no luck. Was stuck talking to bots and then when I finally managed to talk to someone they would fob me off and refuse to refund. I came across resolver and went through the process on the website, it took some time but I finally managed to get a refund. Thankyou resolver!

Reply from Resolver
They certainly try their best to protect us from sham companies. Sometimes you can't escalate which is disappointing. But they advise as much as possible and we really can't complain for a free service.
Also if you email their support the reply is immediate which is always nice.
Shout out to Beth who replied to me today within minutes of asking them a question.

Helped resolved a discrepancy & ongoing information of other issues.
Keep the advice coming, it’s all relevant & very helpful in this tough life. Thank you

Total waste of time. Absolutely no constructive support in getting the complaint with Qatar Airways addressed. Basically, just let them off their commitment to a refund. Don’t use this platform or Qatar!!
Edit after reading the Resolver response. This platform did nothing, it implied timelines and escalation that produced nothing.
Qatar Airlines have zero interest in customer service, their CEO hides his contact details to avoid complaints. Will not use this airline or the complaint platform again!

absolutely pointless
it's been many weeks now. if I had known that they cannot actually do anything whatsoever to really help me I wouldn't have bothered with it
I should've just contacted citizens advise Instead

Reply from Resolver
Made it easier to put forward the issue I had. Took some time but results were as should be.

Reply from Resolver
I started a complaint against Matalan, who refused to reply.
I could not progress to a solution and was left in limbo by Matalan and Resolver.
Will not bother using Resolver again.
They were good in the past but have now deteriorated

Very good bad service indeed. Brilliant for their pockets, catastrophic for the rest of us—hopeful, frustrated, and naïve enough to believe Resolver exists to help. Spoiler alert: they don’t. They exist to simulate help, to perform resolution, and to deflect with astonishing consistency.
Their business model? Pose as a bridge between consumers and companies, then quietly moonwalk away when things get serious. They’ve found a lucrative niche: the illusion of advocacy. A digital waiting room where complaints go to die, dressed up in polite templates and automated shrugs.
I wasted my time. You shouldn’t. Especially if you’re trying to complain about Vinted—a company that practically spells out SCAM in its user experience. Resolver will do absolutely nothing. No pressure, no escalation, no accountability. Just a polite “we’ve forwarded your concern” and a long silence while the company ignores you.
And when you ask for follow-up? You’ll get a recycled paragraph, maybe a smiley face, and a reminder that Resolver is “just a platform.” Not responsible. Not involved. Not useful.
If you enjoy shouting into the void, Resolver is your stage. If you want actual resolution, go elsewhere. Ombudsman, legal action, public exposure—anything but this digital placebo.
