Kafkaesque customer service Chatting or emailing with their customer service is like talking to the dumbest AI ever.

Trade in value was reduced by a false… Trade in value was reduced by a false claim that trade-in phone was not factory reset. This claim is absolutely false. I have a witness that the phone WAS factory rest by me personally. After my complaint they offered $50 credit which I refused and I summited a BBB complaint. I will never buy something from Google again, never.

Google Warranty Dodgers Phone screen developed terrible flicker after 18 months. Said 2yr warranty invalid due to hair line width chip, less the 0.5mm long on casing. £700 Google 6 Pro v well looked after now useless. Will never buy anything Google ever again! Tried on line chat, emails, requesting formal complaint, they could not care less!

Google watch 2 not delivered Orderd a Google watch 2 WiFi. DPD the courier sent a text saying that the watch was on its way but then changed to status to “on its way back to Google”. I raised a case with Google support. After supplying screen prints of the tracking status and texts to Google I was told that after an extensive review by their escalation team (2 days) they told me it was delivered. I informed them it was not and could they provide information of proof of delivery. I then got a message saying that their decision was final and that I was not entitled to a refund or a replacement. I again went back to them and asked if they had read any of the proof I sent to them saying it was on its way back to Google. I then received an email telling me I could take legal recourse and to have a nice day. Unbelievable! I have written to the MD of Google retail and FMCG as there is no way you can escalate the case with Google support. I feel that Google has swindled me out of £300 plus told me if I don’t like it to take them to court. Never order from this company. Their customer support is appalling and you cannot find anyone with any authority to speak to. Senior execs at Google do not give a care about their customers.

Impossible to get a defective product replaced I got a pixel watch from store.google.com on launch day. I reported a fault 3 months ago and I'm still waiting for the RMA to come through to return it. I get a message every 4 weeks asking for more information and then nothing - no responses. I thought buying directly from Google would be a good way to get effective product support, but clearly this is very much not the case. I've always had Google pixel devices, but I'm considering moving to Apple after all this hassle.
