They&#8217;re slow, they like to pass around your case to each other to cover their tracks and play the blame game, and they don&#8217;t respect European consumer legislation. You&#8217;d think paying for 3-year premier support would help you avoid this sort of thing, but apparently not.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Of course, they turned it down. I replied to ask them what they thought was inaccurate in my review, but of course, the reply-to email address bounced. They\u00a0encouraged me to write more content, though, so I copied the original review and my follow-up questions into one, and hit Publish.<\/p>\n<p>They refused it again, using the same form letter and the same no-reply address, so I figured it&#8217;s all worth a blog post, at the very least.
