The Spandex engineer has just left

what a joke - In walks this guy with a dazed look on his face asking me what going on. I explained that the last time he tested the machine he was not happy with it and sent off the test print.
It appears that they now need control materials to print the test on, which I understand 100% - Apparently this has now been ordered and he will come again - 5th time lucky. You really have to feel sorry for the Gerber engineer, he is really embarrassed at this situation.
So here I continue to sit with a machine that I am not happy with and can do nothing.

I called the head of customer service on Friday to tell them that this was just going to waste the engineers time and mine - the answer I got was " I cant help you " apparently any machinery (Greber FX) complaints must go through to technical. Whats the point of having a customer service dept if they can't deal with customers complaints???

the same engineer

Had a call from Spandex yesterday, they said an engineer is coming down "The best one they have" I found out it was the same guy that has been here twice before. Now the last time he was here, he printed out a long halftone print and said it was not very good and would take it back to get the guys to look at it. I never heard a thing, now they want to send him again to I suspect do exactly the same. What a complete waste of time.

Now remember the only hold I have is to withhold payment for the kit. I have called Spandex to tell them this, they said "Its not their problem as the agreement is with GE Commercial. I also called GE Commercial and they said the money has been paid to Spandex and I should deal with them.

So now I have equipment that is substandard, the company that sold it to me cant help, the finance company don't care and now I have a legal company after me. How much is this all costing??????
