This is my email to Micron which you suggested. It was sent this morning. Still, no response:
I understand from an investor in your stock that you are Joel Kocher's secretary, and he suggested that I e-mail you with a critical problem with a Micron product.
My company runs an ISP, as well as several well know web sites and many smaller commercial client sites. These site are now down, and have been for a week, because of the failure of a Micron server which is under warranty and which we have been promised parts for repeatedly over the past week. We are still down and there are still no parts. Our major sites include the official site of the Ministry of Tourism for the Country of Egypt at touregypt.net and the Chamber of Commerce of Panama City Beach, Florida which is a major springbreak resort area. In addition, we currently have over 100 client sites down.
When we called last week we were promised delivery overnight. This took some doing, and my manager spent over 1 1/2 hours on the phone with your company (mostly on hold). However, we expect small aggravations such as this. But the parts did not ship. She called again prior to the end of the week, and in frustration, called me as well. I in turn called and spoke to one of your customer support supervisors. Her name was unclear, but she was at extension 33101. She promised to expedite delivery, and did send us a fax confirming that. Still no parts arrived. Monday we called again, and again were promised the parts. No parts. I called late Tuesday. I am told that our file indicates that we were "belligerent". I was not belligerent. I was steaming, seethingly mad. Yesterday, we ordered a new server from a different vendor in order to mitigate our damages. If we had been told the first day that you could not deliver, we would have done that then, and saved ourselves some of our clients. As it is now, I can assure you that we are no more belligerent than most of our clients.
Tuesday I asked to speak to one of your senior managers, this is a crucial problem, and my parent company, of which I am CFO, is of a similar size to your own. I really expected to speak to someone in upper management, after not having any success with others in the company. I was not allowed to, so I went to their bosses, the stockholders. That is how I got this email address.
I would be more than happy to go back and tell them that the issue was resolved. Let me know.
