[comp.sys.atari.st] CompuClub and Atari repair policy

kchin@BBN.COM (Ken Chin) (03/03/89)

Hi All,

My brother-in-law had a problem with getting his 1040ST repaired, a problem
which has turned into locating his now missing 1040ST.  Does anyone know
what happened to CompuClub in Framingham, Mass., which is where he sent
his machine?  Their phone has been disconnected recently and I assume they
have gone out of business.

Now the more general question is this:  Before CompuClub disappeared, they
had told them that they had sent his machine to Atari for repair.  This is
in July of last year.  Calls to customer service in Sunnyvale, CA have only
gotten him recordings.  Who can we call to find out if Atari has his machine?
Is there a *real* customer service at Atari?

Any and all info appreciated,

Ken Chin

Have him try calling Atari Customer Relations at 408-745-2367 or 5759, during
normal business hours (Pacific.)  After hours, there's a recording; otherwise,
there are real human beings there.
