Re: [Elecraft] Order status query goes unanswered

2015-03-06 Thread Lynn W. Taylor, WB6UUT

Eric has asked that the tread be closed.

He's also given alternatives to making this kind of complaint in public.

I can think of at least one other way to get through to Elecraft that 
doesn't involve the list or an overseas call.


Thanks everyone for your consideration.

Hi Stewart,

Lisa (sa...@elecraft.com) sent you a reply in response to your original email 
inquiry. She also just sent you another email on this shortly after you posted 
the email below. Have you received her latest reply?


Our replies frequently get caught inadvertently in customer spam filters.  You 
might also want to check there.


(I'm answering you directly and via the list to make sure you get the reply.)

And, it is much more common that those automated replies -never- have  
anyone read a response, should the recipient of the auto-response  
happen to reply to it.  The fact that someone from Elecraft -does-  
scan the account for possible replies is very unusual.


So... bottom line: if you want a timely response email sales,  
not sales3.  Or, give them a phone call.

I don't think anyone should be questioning your intelligence because you

I have a similar issue wherein my bank account was depleted by some $4000
the day after I placed an order for a new K3 and for six days never heard a
peep from Elecraft. In my case, I goofed up and sent my question to 'sales'
instead of 'sales3' and instantly got a helpful response from 'Mike', who

Hi Wes,

Its working great.

sal...@elecraft.com is our automated web sales order confirmation send address. 
If you reply to that message, we will eventually see it, but the reply from may 
take up to the following day to occur, depending on when you send the email and 
what our incoming order load is that day.


For urgent inquiries, please use our regular sa...@elecraft.com email address.

Lisa and I just now independently checked the sales3 mailbox, but we can not 
find any requests from you in the last several days. Lisa is emailing you now to 
see what you need.
