Reviews:1

Received the Inspiron 530 from Dell Faulty - CD drawer was not functioning - have contacted Dell 11 or 12 times now without any success so far. I have asked that this system be returned to Dell and my payment refunded. Dell have continually tried to persuade me to have the system repaired, and when I ask for the system to be collected they cut me off. Their Customer Services is awful. There are no Directors in the UK to contact or Management I was told by Dell in Reading that all complaints were dealt with in India - I have had a nightmare and I stil haven't got my money back - I really would not recommend Dell to anyone - they are sending out faulty systems and trying to persuade customers to keep them. Once I get my money back from Dell I would never entertain them again or recommend them. Take my advice stay clear

It's a shame that Dell used to be a good quality manufacturer but they really have gone incredibly downhill.
