So i've been on the phone with microsoft for about 3 hours now... i've spoken with 4 people so far and am on hold at the moment... I could not understand 3 of the 4 people i have spoken too so far... i've spoken with these departments(in cron. order)
1. Product Activation(couldn't understand)
2. Customer Service(couldn't understand)
3. Tech Support(understood but couldn't do anything for me)
4. Customer Service(couldn't understand)
i've now been on hold for about 30-40 minutes and don't even know where i'm being transfered to...
So yeah, my problem is pretty simple too :
I activate windows... more than the average user but not anything extreme. So the last 2 times i've had to activate it, it told me that i had exceeded the limit of times i can activate it... So I spend about 20 minutes on the phone everytime I need to activate it.
I activated it today and was planing on reinstalling it on a different drive after I got everything saved... so i decided to see if i could get this problem resolved... and now it looks like i'll have to wait for another few days to reinstall because I've been on the phone for 3 friggin hours... So yeah, i just keep getting transfered and told that they can't do anything and stuff... hell, all i want is either a new product key, for them to reset my activation number, or to give me some cool stuff... I paid almost $400 for it about a year and a half ago and all i want is to be able to activate it over the net instead of calling...
update :
finally got ahold of the next guy...
turns out they sent me back to tech support...
at least i can understand this guy pretty good, he's trying to get me a new product key.
