When I ordered 2007 SDL Trados Professional, I was charged for Tech Suport Level 1. $250

Did anybody else have this terrible exerience? Any suggestion on what to do?

I have contacted SDL representatives again on your behalf Sep 18, 2007

Michelle, Kasia and I did responded to your email on 9-11-07, and at that time SDL indicated that the refund process does sometimes take a bit of time. I am sorry to hear that a refund still has not been put through.

I have contacted SDL representatives again on your behalf and asked for this issue to be resolved immediately.

I will contact you via email to let you know when this will be resolved and your monies refunded.

So far, no refund. I'll keep checking. Sep 19, 2007

Thanks for your reply. I just checked with my credit card company.

So far, no credit has been posted. I'm hoping that it will happen today or tomorrow. I've wasted so much time already on this.

I not only have not received the refund for tech support I yet, when I went to my license page at Trados site, it seems like my license was de-activated.

I was getting message in Trados saying that I was running a demo mode, I reactivated my license several times but still got same error.

According to the suggestion from the support page, I tried to return the license file so that I could re-generate the license file but I didn't have that option.

Support charge refund Sep 24, 2007

Michelle I am sorry to hear that you continue to experience problems with this situation. Please keep in mind that ProZ.com does not process any payments or refunds related to the Group Buy program, our role is to give our members a way to gather as a group for the discounted purchase that we have negotiated. Although it is not our role, I have been in contact with SDL on your behalf numerous times to try and resolve this for you. I have been in contact with a senior manager today to discuss ... See more
Michelle I am sorry to hear that you continue to experience problems with this situation. Please keep in mind that ProZ.com does not process any payments or refunds related to the Group Buy program, our role is to give our members a way to gather as a group for the discounted purchase that we have negotiated. Although it is not our role, I have been in contact with SDL on your behalf numerous times to try and resolve this for you. I have been in contact with a senior manager today to discuss resolution and the indication I have gotten is that SDL will resolve this matter right away. The most efficient way for you to follow up on this is directly with them, as the matters that remain are beyond our control.

Thank you
