Hi guys, After my recent Abhorrent experience with PNY being immesely difficult to reach, sending back the same broken sticks and eventually only sending me 1 of 2 4gb sticks, I am looking to know
what memory companies have terrible customer service worth avoiding.

Mainly of the lesser companies such as teamgroup, patriot, Geil and Adata.
I rarely use these brands as it is, but I am now steering clear of PNY completely.
I am just wondering if anyone has had any bad experiences with any of these companies that would warrant I do the same with any others.

Edit: Please feel free to include problems with kingston/crucial as well, but for RAM customer service only.

You don't save much buying ram from smaller companies.

Not worth

Only PNY thing I ever owned, Was a 32mb Geforce Mx400 (or 4000 idr) GPU.


That thing was super badass. Ran halo 1 like a boss, Looked like shit though... But had flawless framerate.

TBH patriot while being lesser of a company has amazing rma process.
I RMA'd both ssd's and ram through them.

Corsair can be a bitch at times tbh with older tech.
Also western digital same thing.
MSI is trash cause its warranty is from date made not bought.

Everyone else has been pretty legit with RMA's

Adata is good.

Shipped back some 2x2gb sticks I've owned for 6 years and they sent back 2x4gb sticks.

I've actually purchased quite a few products from them with no issues. This ram has been an exception but such poor customer service will make me avoid in the future. I have a pretty high tolerance for BS but man do these guys lay it on thick.

@ rest of you, thanks for reassuring me with some positive stories of other less known brands :)
I'll be sure to try/continue trying their products in the future.

@ anyone else
still would appreciate any more experiences ^_^
