Just purchased WD Passport Ultra and… Just purchased WD Passport Ultra and discovered there is no UK telephone support. The only number provided is a premium rate 00800 number. If I try to use live chat, after going through various clicks, confirmation of model, personal details, typing out the query etc etc etc.... only to discover their chat support is closed and only operates US hours and is only for US customers! Boxed and returned to Amazon !! Waste of time!

I wanted to exchange a defect… I wanted to exchange a defect harddrive, I am waiting for a replacement since 4 months now, customer service is really bad as they told me they will send a replacement and keep on asking me for adresses, alternative adresses, which I provide, and then they again ask the same things.. Then after letting me know, they will send it soon, they found out, they dont have the model, of the harddrive, now again the adress-asking-process startet again,... not sure if I am talking to ChatBots or humans, but what i know now is: never ever again WD products!!!

Worthless crap Completely useless product. A $130 drive that never worked in backup mode with my PC and worked with my MacBook Air precisely once and won't transfer files now regardless of what I do or what updates I download. For the time being my drag/drop non-cloud solution for critical files is a 7 year old $10 5GB Lexar drive from the checkout line at Staples that while slow at least can perform the basic function it's designed for on either PC or Mac platforms. Going to shop very carefully for other options.

WD OS5 more like OS0 Been happy using WD mycloud products for years, unfortunately now have a paperweight due to OS5 firmware update, cannot go back, and has been indexing everything for over two weeks now. running at max CPU,RAM. Drive no longer responsive, cannot access anything remotely or locally. WD only answer is to turn off indexing. This stops cloud access! Device is therefore no longer working as advertised. Why everything has to be indexed is beyond me. Files folders worked perfectly well. Someone needs to be fired at WD for this. I will never buy WD again and recommend everyone keeps well clear of these cowboys.

Pathetic Ordered an external drive. Money taken immediately. Got an email a week later stating a refund had been issued as the item was out of stock. The drive is still showing available to buy on website. Went on online chat to ask why. Told that the system takes time to update !! Very poor for a company selling computer components to have a poor, not fit for purpose computer system. I won't be buying anything from WD again.
