I canceled my HP instant ink subscription. I have not been able to print since March. I have called support twice and no one can help. The last support person I spoke to was very nonchalant when I mentioned contacting the BBB today 4/19/2025. It's like my printer is being held hostage until I re-enroll In the instant ink program.Business Response

I purchased my printer on October ******* and enrolled in the instant ink program. I cancelled my subscription on April *******. After only receiving 2 possibly 3 ink shipments in the last 7 years I can no longer use the rest of the ink in the cartridges. Also on April 15, 2025 my printer will not go to sleep as it always did. I called ** to try to rectify this and continually received the same answer that I needed to remove the cartridges and the printer would sleep but that then leaves it vulnerable to contaminates in the air. I should not have to run right out and spend $135 on new HP ink cartridges.Eventually I was then transferred to instant ink support in which The person had no answer and hung up on me. I have been a faith ** product user as well as recomending to family ,friends and others that I have helped out and am considering changing that pending the outcome on this situation.Business Response

This site closed me down before I completed what I wrote and, of course, every word was lost. I have prepared a nine-page presentation about the entire case. I am not going to ****** again with the fluky dysfunction that anyone who deals online with any sort of issue, no matter how critical or important it may be, must risk and hope that by some miracle, it will be handled with justice. I am not a young man with disabling conditions and have lived through far too much horror in my life. Read the presentation; it tells the whole story completely. I am a published writer in three languages and if anything, I am "painfully honest," as the presentation will reveal; nobody will question me on that.This tells the whole story from start to finish:Presentation of a fraud about failed delivery of HP Order H363125758 on 04/04/2025 ********************************Business Response

4/4/2025 at 9:45am I placed an order for laptop bundle with ******. My credit card was charged $318.74. At 5pm I received a cancellation email from ****** stating they are still shipping the keyboard and mouse, but the laptop was cancelled. There was no reason given. I did not see the email until Monday morning (4/6).I called customer service and was told it was cancelled likely due to low inventory. The laptop was still for sale on the website. Another *** told me the order was cancelled because the price was incorrect and that ** has an hour to make this determination and will email the consumer. This did not happen. I escalated and received a call back later in the day with a more senior CSR saying the same thing. There was an error in the price and ** cancelled the order. by this point, the original price of the laptop had increased. I was told I can purchase the laptop separate, at the inflated price and for my trouble they would take 10% off the current price. Over 7 hours passed from the time my credit card was charged to the time they cancelled the order. The *** said my only option for recourse is to buy the laptop, at the new price, and they will discount 10%. They made almost $55B in revenue last year and are causing the consumer to suffer for HPs mistakes.Business Response

I am rejecting this response because:The laptop received is the EXACT laptop (same SKU) that was cancelled at the lower price. So, yes, I received the new laptop, but I had to pay the inflated price because ****** cancelled the original order. Then told me, I could still buy it, with a 10% discount off of the increased price. Price on Friday (4/4); $299 as a bundle, without the bundle $599. Price on Monday (4/7): $619.99.
BAIT AND SWITCH is not acceptable and should be illegal. I needed a laptop and was held me hostage in order to get it in time. So, yes I received a product, at an inflated price, which is why I filed a complaint and am requesting a partial refund.

Ive had an incredibly frustrating experience with my HP printer, and I feel compelled to share it. It all started when my printer unexpectedly stopped working while I was in the middle of printing important documents. I received a notification that my ink subscription had expired and that I needed to pay for a monthly subscription to continue printing. This was never communicated to me when I originally ordered the ink, and I was caught off guard.I called customer service for assistance, only to be transferred repeatedly between departments for HOURS. Eventually, I was told my only options were to either pay for the subscription or buy my own ink. It felt like a sneaky and underhanded way to extract more money from ************ light of this, I decided to return the printer. However, I quickly learned that NO department could help me with this request. It took TWO DAYS of calls before I finally spoke to someone who agreed to escalate the issue. I was told a case manager would call within 48 hoursbut, of course, no one called. A few days later, I received an email informing me that my case had been CLOSED without resolution.I had to call again, wasting more time being transferred, just to get my case number. This entire experience has been a ************ summary, ** seems more focused on finding new ways to take your money than on providing customer service or honoring its commitments. Their customer support is a joke, offering no real solutions and endlessly transferring you without any meaningful assistance. I strongly recommend avoiding HP, as their practices feel deceptive and unprofessional.Business Response

I purchased a NEW HP printer through ****** in December, 2024. After 2 lengthy times spent on phone with customer service about problems with it, they said they finally found a major problem and would send a new printer as soon as I returned the no good one. I received a refurbished printer. I complained. They said I could have gotten a new one within the first month. Their procrastination caused that time to lapse. Not mine. I was very upset. But, I accepted the refurbished one. It would not even install properly. I spent another 90 minutes on phone trying to get help. They were uncooperative until I told them i would definitely file a report with Better Business Bureau. Then the manager quickly agree to send a NEW printer and to expedite it. I received another refurbished one the next day. I have an email where they promised new. It was very difficult to install. Had to restart multiple times. For now it is working. I've been an ** customer many years. I'm 71 years old and was very patient with them. I should not have to threaten management to get service. And they should not lie. I will not buy their product again. Thank you for the service you do. Maybe others can avoid this upsetting waste of time. So after buying a new printer in December, spending a total of 4hours and 35 minutes on the phone and 3 separate installations, I now, in April, have a refurbished printer that I hope works awhile. I am a teacher, need a printer!Business Response

I received a message on my printer, that I purchased in September of 2024, that there's an error with my HP account and to check my account to resolved the issue, but I will not be able to print until the issue is resolved. I called **'s customer support for assistance. I signed up for the instant ink when I first got the printer. Realizing that I no longer wanted the services, I told the gentleman to cancel my subscription as I went to ******* and purchased my own ink. The gentleman was able to get my printer working. The very next day I woke up to the same error. Called back in again and spoke to a different agent who was no help. It has been almost two weeks and I am not able to use my printer. I can't use my printer or I can't remove the printer from my computer until April 27, 2025. ** is holding my printer hostage, I'm not using their ink and I need to use my printer. I should not have to wait for two weeks. I'm going to have to go out and purchase another printer, because I can't wait any longer. I need to print.Business Response

Subject: Re: ** Firmware Update disabled 3rd Party Ink Cartridges
Hi @coolmellowdude, Welcome to the ** Support Community! I totally understand your concern here. Just to clarify, ** does not block the use of third-party cartridges altogether. However, ** printers with Dynamic Security are designed to protect the hardware, they may block cartridges that are using non-** chips or modified electronic circuitry, especially if they pose a risk to the printer's performance or reliability. This isn't about making it illegal or forcing customers, but rather ensuring the printer works safely and as intended. So if you're running into errors after a firmware update, it's likely because the third-party cartridge is not fully compatible with **s dynamic security measures. To avoid these issues in the future, its best to use genuine ** cartridges, they're tested for quality, safety, and long-term use. I hope this helps. I'm glad I could help! If this resolved your issue, please mark it as "Accepted Solution" and click "Yes" on "Was this reply helpful?" Your feedback not only keeps us going but also helps others find the solution faster! ********* and have an amazing day ahead! Best regards,
