Question

Advanced Replacement Delay: Paid $222.38, No Shipment or Return Label for 7 Days.

Hi everyone, 

On June 22, I opted for an Advanced Replacement for my faulty Meta Quest 3 and paid $222.38 so a replacement would ship out right away. Meta took my money immediately, but it has been 7 days and nothing has shipped, nor have I received a return shipping label for my broken unit. 

Every time I contact standard chat support, they tell me they have no information and are just "working on it." I am incredibly frustrated as my funds are gone but my replacement is completely stuck.

Firstly for your own security please edit your post and remove your case number details from it. This is an open unsecured public forum for users. Nobody can escalate for you.. The Community Managers are not Meta employees either. We can only offer user  help on issues with headsets. 

However, maybe you would like to talk to a Meta support person directly rather than getting AI generated responses. 

Here is a link with some options to talk to a real person. Good luck.....and don't forget to remove the case number.

Okay, thank you, thats just what Google recommended, .. . to leave my case # in the forum so a Meta higher up tier may see it and move it up in the chain. And yea i keep getting no where with live agents in the chat here. They literally tell me NOTHING. And say "we are trying to figure it out and well let you know when we know, here is your ticket # , is there anything else i can help you with today?" .....like are you serious right now 😡 , and one auctally had the nerve to literally just end the chat in mid convo as i was typing asking a question. I cant do this much longer with this horrible company service.
