I have a NP-20 battery, it is not charging up. The charger’s red light blinks.

Called Casio 1-800-435-7732, and they said it is a known problem of its lithium batteries.
They are very nice, took some info and immediately offered to send a new battery to me free of charge.

Although Casio Customer Support been nice and offered to send a new battery ……. seems like this is a KNOWN problem to them, and as per this forum and many other forums claimed ……. WHY don’t Casio just issue a RECALL to its NP-20 lithium batteries???

OK … i get it ….. if u call…. u get your replacement for FREE ….. if u don’t …….. CASIO will save - let say $3 cost per battery …… CASIO probably sold millions of this each year ……. if 50% of their customer DID NOT call …… CAsio will save $1.5 million plus each year ……..

IS IT A GOOD BUSINESS Ethic??????

Problems with Mailings from Overseas?

Mailings from overseas promoting lotteries or ‘get rich quick schemes’ are more often than not misleading and fraudulent.

Our advice is not to reply and to put it straight in your recycling bin.

It’s a difficult problem to solve but the Office of Fair Trading is working on it, you may like to send any copies you receive, including the envelope, to the European Enforcement Team at the Office of Fair Trading at Fleetbank House, 2-6 Salisbury Square, London EC4Y 8IJ.

The quality of Verizon DSL’s service goes beyond atrocious! I had Verizon DSL for about 1 year and it never worked correctly at the onset. All the filters and other hardware connections were properly installed but the DSL connection always cuts off when an incoming telephone call occurs or if someone tries to make a call from any of the phones in the house. I can be surfing the Internet and B.S. initially because I was locked into a one year contract and the DSL reconnects about 5 - 10 minutes after a disconnection. Lately, the modem can be left on for an entire day and the DSL will not connect. On those rare occassion that it connects, the connection is cut off after half an hour or less.

The only thing worst than Verizon’s DSL is their completely moronic (no) tech support reached from the 800-567-6789 number. I contacted those idiots about the connection problem this Sunday and a field tech was scheduled to come to my house this Tuesday morning to examin the connection problem stated above. After waiting almost an entire day I called customer service when the tech did not show up but only to find out that the ticket to dispatch the tech to my house was closed. After yelling at the Bozo in customer service he informed me Verizon performed a remote diagnostic of my line the day before. I should have received a pre-recorded message that according to their results, everything on my telepone line and connection is in working properly. The joker said it is Verizon’s policy not to send a field tech if the remote diognostic result is O.K…. So nice of Verizon not to inform me after they canceled my ticket.

Well, the connection/cut-off problem is still there. I told Verizon to send a bloody field tech over this week and they confirmed that a new ticket was open to dispatch a tech to come over this Friday. But guess what, I just received a pre-recorded call from Verizon informing me that they had done a remote-diognostic and the results of my line and connection is working properly.

Now, I don’t really give a damn wheather or not the tech shows up. I not going to be home anyway and I’m in the process of having a cable-internet service set up.

P.S. I wish you will publish and share my comment and to as many other parties as possible.
