I bought a HP laptop in 2018 at a Game Store. Lately the protective hardware (keyboard and lid) has started crack and break to such an extent that I can’t close the laptop after doing a shutdown. I tried to take it to my local computer shop for repairs, but they advised that its best I take it to HP as they do not fix cosmetic damages.
Can you please advise the nearest HP Service Centre to Alberton, where I could take it for repairs.
Never in my life will I buy a HP printer again. A 5 min job becomes a big hassle and frustration. It only wants to work through WIFI and you are also lucky if there isn’t any problems.
Whenever I want to use my HP scanner, HP Smart requires me to sign in. I am on my own PC. It is highly irritating and frustrating to have to sign in every time I want to use my own scanning function on my own PC. Could you please explain why this is necessary? And is there any way to rectify this maddening situation?
Good day. Please inform me of where I can get my HP Officejet J5783 All-in-One serviced (I specifically need to know if the ink inside has dried up and that new cartridges will work). Regulatory model number SDGOB-0701. It has only gone through one series of cartridges and still looks fit for purpose. The local agent I approached in Durban said that the product has reached its end of life and that there are no parts available. However, I do not think that is right at all as I am sure it still works. Please advise. Regards, G. Heath
Good day
I bought a HP DeskJet 2620 from House and Home in Matlosana Mall, Klerksdorp on 16 January 2019.
Tried to use it for the first time a couple of days later, and the printer was not working properly. Would not feed the paper and the only way you could get anything printed was by trying to feed the paper by hand onto the rollers as it would not grip it automatically as it is supposed to.
I live a long distance away from the store and cannot just travel into Klerksdorp at any time.
So when I got the opportunity to go in again on the 23rd of January, I took the printer into House and Home.
When I explained to the manager what the problem was he told me that he would have to send it to you guys to have it checked out, which sometimes could take up to 2 to 3 months before the printer is returned.
Not very satisfactory as I bought the printer as I need it for my business to print invoices on a daily basis.
Returned with the printer and tried using it by feeding the paper manually which is quite a performance.
Printed a couple of invoices which printed fine and then suddenly the black started going grey and then started printing blue.
Checked the ink levels and showed that my black was still around 3/4 full. Did the print head cleaning and all the other cleaning that the maintenance section advises. It still did not want to print black only printed colour. By this time after trying several times the colour cartridge shows almost empty, but the black cartridge still shows 3/4 full.
At his stage the printer is still not even 2 weeks old.
Eventually went and bought another printer, an Epson this time, and it has been working fine and still the original cartridges and we are now almost at the end of April.
Not at all happy with the product or the service I received.
Will NEVER be buying anything from HP again and will also be advising all my clients and friends to stay clear.
BAD PRODUCT AND BAD SERVICE

Good day
– your website says you can recycle hp ink cartridges; but i cannot see from the site how this is done
– your support options don’t offer a simple email query option as far as i can find
– interacting with yourselves as a technology company i found is not simple and wasted a fair amount of time compared to the reason i needed to engage
…. and all because i wanted to do the right thing and not throw the empty cartridge in the bin (as you advise not to)
I have a OfficeJet Pro 6960 printer. This is only two years old and already faulty.I have removed the broken piece causing a permanent paper jam and need to replace it. I have contacted the local agents (Ensure IT Services) who inform me no spares available. This is poor that Hp cannot support their products.If this is the case I will most certainly not buy HP again. This model is freely available from retail outlets so is not obsolete. If it is not supportable Hp should remove them from store shelves.
I’m not sure what it must take to draw HP’s attention. Like someone said in earlier mail, they’ve got your money so “up yours” for those who have complaints. Being an IT company, I get the imression that failures are programmed into the product to fail after the Warranty period so that you HAVE to buy another piece of equipment because their srive division takes too long !!
We’ve sent in a COLOURJET mp277dw TO pROFUSRVE, Linbro Park – one of HP’s appointed “DEALERS/DISTRIBUTORS” since December last year. They calim that they are still waiting for spares from HP! 6 MONTHS down the line and no spares from HP? Who can we complain to? HP Head Office don’t answer the phone or keep you holding…and there is no “live ” person who can help on e-mail Like “Fees Must Fall” I believe Hewlett Packard MUst Fall !
HP RENEGED on supplying me with a 2 year guarantee on my Laser Jet 400 colour MFP m475dw HP printer. I accepted a written quote and paid into their business account. A few days later I learned that they could not give me the required 2 yr guarantee. The quote was not worth the paper in was written on.The terms and conditions in the quote were not honoured. I have demanded a refund.Totally unprofessional, misleading and very disappointing!
hi!! My name is Ray. I have Hp laptop pavilion which need smart hard disc replacement. I want to know where can I buy the hard disc. I am staying I Tzaneen in Limpopo Province. I would appreciate your help. thanks
I purchased an HP 1515 and have used it scarecely for a year and 4 months as it is a home printer. It was well looked after and worked well until it abruptly stopped taking paper into the feeder tray. I asked Makro for assistance who declined as it was just out of its one year warrentee. Hp technical centre declided because of the same reason. Hp head office does not care nor answer emails. I have been trying to get someone to assist for over a month and HP have the attitiude that they have my money sorry its a year and 4 months either pay to repair it or buy a new printer. Why do large corporations get away with making products to just beyond their warrentee and nothing is done about it? So after starting this query more than a month ago and REPEATEDLY following up on my side only as NO HP staff seem to want to assist I finally get an abrupt phonecall today to say sorry we are not prepared to come to the party I any way or assist you in any way. They DO NOT want to even offer to have one of their technical branches look at and evaluate the problem they just have WE DO NOT CARE attitude! We havr made our money off your pur hase and that is all that matters. I searched the internet last night hoping to get any form of contact for someone to pay attentio and when I finally did even then I received a standard email back without anyone taking tge time to evn look into the matter!! I have asked them to put it in wtiting that they will not assist and to date they have not. When I receive the letter I will share it so we can all avoid this in the future! Their brand does not care about anything except their profits!!! Not one person has even looked into the case decently regardless of who I contact! Printers should not be made to break just after warentee especially when well looked after!! That once again reiterates NEVER AN HP PRODUCT!! I hope to bring much awareness!!
Hp Laptop motherboard was replaced under warranty and now the same problem has reoccured after 9 months. Your company says that it is out of warranty and I must pay for the repairs.
This laptop has now failed twice in a year and a half and your company are telling me that the machine is too old. How long are your laptops supposed to last.
Is this what you expect from your products or are they designed that way.
Due to your system and the prompts I cannot get hold of any senior person in your company and the call centres manager refuses to take any call from the public.
I trust that you can now get somebody to contact me and help as your support service is not up to standard.
I would like to buy a mount for the camera HP AC100 however have not been able to find any place that sells them. Could you please send me an e-mail and advise me where i can purchase one.
TIA.
My charger for HP Elitebook 8460p workstation has been working intermittently. Now it has stopped completely. It is under warranty.
I purchased a HP 4 in 1 Printer Deskjet 4620 Series at Game Secunda ,the product was faulty and does not print. I thought it was a problem with the ink cartridges and purchased a new set which did not help. On wanting to return the product to Game i was informed that they can not exchange or refund HP Products and that HP direct has to be contacted. My son in law who lives in Secunda did this 2 weeks after purchase without any reply apparently someone from HP was going to pick up the Printer.

To Whom In May Concern
I purchased a HP Officejet Pro 8500A from Makro, Woodmead on 19 June 2011.
The Makro sales person, Sima McDonald had assured me that the above product was great value for money and economical (my previous printers were Lexmark).
I was very impressed with the printer until it started giving me various problems.
On 22 March 2012, I contacted HP call centre on 0860104771 of which the call centre agent had advised me to rather take the printer to Redington in Midrand as he was not able to assist me on the telephone due to the problem being hardware.
I took the printer to Redington in Midrand and was assisted by Simonay Cassim – explaining that I needed the printer in working condition as I run a small business.
Simonay attended to the problem IMMEDIATELY to the extent, calling a technician to the front desk.
I then received an e-mail on 22 March 2012 at 17:30 to say that my printer was ready for collection.
THANK YOU to Simonay and the technical team at Redington for their caring and understanding attitude.
GREAT JOB – SERVICE EXCELLENCE – KEEP IT UP!!!!!

“Please stop supporting Hewlett Packard South Africa immediately!. They do not respond adequately to complaints, employs arrogant and unprofessional people who would rather keep you occupied on the phone for twenty eight minutes thirteen seconds before telling you, you your replacement part has to be ordered from Germany and will take twelve to fourteen days. Apparently that is all they can do! They are excellent with selling you their products but their after sale service is pathetic! Do yourself a favour and contact their Head Office in Johannesburg! Nobody available but the Manager On Duty who is nothing more that a bus Driver with a rank, as they can do nothing but have some invisible department contact you, who by the way can also do nothing! What do I use to print while you are playing around? Three printers! One year! All with the same problem. Dell and Mr Naidoo that was supposed to contact me on Friday, watch the media, one of your competitors will most certainly find this amusing…. There is nothing I hate more than Bad Customer Service and HP, you guys just scored the highest in SA! By the way: My Complaint to the South African Consumer Affairs is also posted!”
Please do not hesitate to contact me should you need any additional information.
F. Jordan re your comment on26-11-11. Boy does this echo my feelings. Trying to resolve a problem with HP is worse than hitting your head against a brick wall. My latest attempt resulted in a young femaile who casually told me to come into Durban which is over an hours drive away. Last time they kept my printer for two weeks!! Their service sucks & I’ll never by an HP product again.
What crap service you get from HP; they keep you waiting on the phone for ever without bothering to deal with customers complaints!!!! Don’t support them under any circumstances!!!!!
My laptop screen started out of the blue to get a permanent black mark on it. Then a 3rd, and now even a 4th blob of permanent black discoloration. I bought it 1 year ago in Ballito and have a 3year onsite warranty with hp. What do I do?
if its under warranty, get it checked at a service center
I purchased an i7 laptop, dv6, in febuary 2011. It is still under warranty and a few days ago it overheated to 90Degrees. I am not happy because i had the same problem with a previous hp and i sent it in for repairs. After some time it overheated again and eventually it was out of warranty. I am not happy about this because i spent R12 000 on the laptop. The laptop has never been on the surface of a bed. It has always been on a table. I purchased it from incredible connection, capegate, cape town. I would appreciate it if hp can give me a new laptop for the price i paid. I saw a pavilion dv6-6077ei notebook which looks like an equvilant replacement for mine. I have always dealt with HP and i love there products but this problem was not a good reflection on hp because this is the second time this has happened.
if its under warranty..please visit a service center and find out if the defective part could be repaired or replaced
