    In Feb 2023 I took my Mac computer in to Westworld computers because it was not staying powered on. The computer was old, they told me it was not worth being repaired so I paid over $300.00 for the data to be extracted and put on an external hard drive and the computer was recycled. At the time I told them I needed the external hard drive to be compatible with a PC as I did not have another Mac computer, only a PC laptop. I took it home and found that it was not compatible with my PC and because I left the country for an extended period, I could not return to Westworld to get it changed until now. I am a repeat customer of Westworld and I was shocked to learn they would not do the work to make it PC compatible unless I paid another $105 because I had not returned within 90 days. My complaint was that they did not do what was requested in the first place so the hard drive was useless to me. I do not feel I should have to pay another $105 to have them do what I paid for originally. In my opinion this is very bad customer service and I will not trust Westworld for my computer needs again.

    Dear ***,


    Thank you for bringing this to our attention.  We are sorry to hear that Ms. ****** is having difficulties accessing the information from her data recovery performed February 4 2023.


    We have contacted Ms. ****** and offered to perform her migration again free of charge, our understanding is that she has since had this service completed elsewhere.


    In light of this, we have placed a good will credit of $150 plus tax (the full value of the service she paid for) on her account for another purchase.


    Thanks,

    ***** *****
