First off, hello everyone,
Recently I was doing a Re-cable on my AKG K-701's and I regrettably made a vital mistake and twisted the signal post on one of my drivers, snapping the small copper wire. Dejected with my horrible mistake I went of on a search for a proper AKG support line, much to my surprise every number I called resulted in no ringing for an extremely long period of time on any of the lines I attempted to contact them from (818 numbers). So naturally, the first thing I did was assume I should just email them, so I came across a gentlemen named Frank Rodriguez (frank dot rodriguez at harman dot com) whom was the "Customer Service Administrator". So I did, and I provided him with the model number of the driver that I needed to replace and he responded, he provided me with a price for the replacement as well as asked for my shipping information as well as my credit card information.
Now here is where things start to worry me. I (feeling REALLY stupid for having done this) put my full credit card information into the email and sent it. Ever since the email I sent with my information, my credit card has been getting declined at many other stores (as if it had been maxed out), and I haven't received any reply, no talk about shipping or the items being sent, and I haven't received any responses to my inquiries based on the status of my order.
Tomorrow I'm going to call the credit card company and have them tell me the charges on the bill for the last 2 weeks, just to put my mind at ease as to weather or not my card has been stolen (It'd be my fault if it did).
But this is the first time I've ever had a company that was so difficult to get ahold of, I honestly can't figure out why I can't call them via phone, and I have no idea which number to call, what desk to sent emails to, I'm just completely lost here.
So if any of you guys have purchased any replacement parts from AKG, can you please leave the email address / phone number you called to get the parts?
Thanks a lot guys.
