GBI agree with previous BAD reviews of… I agree with previous BAD reviews of terrible service on technical support. I have an old WD external hard drive which now seems to be 'dead' - all I wanted to know was if/where/ I could get it looked at to see if possible to retrieve the data. First call - phone went dead after speaking to an agent for 1 minute; 2nd and third calls - after going through the rigmarole of the voicemails and pressing '1''2' etc, the line went dead. On account of this,I shall never buy their products again.

GBTerrible technical support for their WD… Terrible technical support for their WD ReadyView surveillance system. They refuse to fix a confirmed (by level II techs) problem with IOS application / NVR software which renders the system useless. Alert alarms just quit working after a few hours and the entire IOS app must be deleted and reinstalled to get them working again (but for just a short time. Told me to return the unit even though there is no hardware problem !!

GBJust 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!

SEI bought a WD Passport maybe 3-4 years… I bought a WD Passport maybe 3-4 years back, just to have it as my backup for my MacBook Pro. Now I get the message that the model I discontinued and that there is no way to update it to my current operative system. What am I supposed to do with a hard drive that only works for 3-4 years? You really suck WD, wish I could give you -5 stars!

GBMy cloud drive went dead 5days before… My cloud drive went dead 5days before warranty runs out, how convenient. But managed to get a replacement via WDC wesbite and return the faulty drive. The only issue is that I selected Advance Replacement but WDC website does not seems to work in taking credit card payment information. Ended up calling their customer service and took another hour to process it over the phone. All in all, a good support but they need to work on their website, to a workable status.
