Ams Neve not returning emails?

I mean, i've kept emailing them for 5 weeks, half of my messages are unanswered...
I need some parts, Ams Neve UK bounce me over this David Clark who's supposed to assure US distribution but the guy don't carry any parts or part price list...
What's wrong with them?
I've spent a shit lot of money in Ams Neve gear, and for 1 time i need customer support in 2 years , they won't take care of me!
It's totally unacceptable that a company who's charging so much for their equipment has an inexistant tech support when you need them!

Their email works just fine... We've exchanged a few already but they keep bouncing me over to this guy who doesn't have any Neve parts in stock , so i emailed them back several times, they probably forwarded my email to this guy in the US because he emailed me an apologized but still , he can't help me and Ams Neve UK plays mute! I'm furious! If i add up all the money spent in Neve gear, i'm close to $35,000 and still, i'm too small of a customer to receive proper support when i need it ? Disgusting!

It's not disgusting - it's because your emails are coming from the USA - someone is forwarding them without reading them. Your Stateside so they're putting you through to their agent over there.... I'll draw their attention to this thread .

Maybe i'm overreacting a bit, but understand my position.
It's been a more than a month i've requested these parts, it doesn't take much to invoice me on them and explain me that it may take a few days or week to be delivered if they need to ship from the UK.... With communication, you can sort everything out, but their intermittent silence to my request just gives me the feeling they don't care about my problem....
The day i had an issue w/ my Prism converters, i received a phone call from Prism returning my request for support in less than 2 hours, and they did everything to help me out quickly....

Call up Audio Agent in Hollywood. They answer the phone and they are the people handling AMS-Neve service in the USA.

They did help me, I can tell you that.

Don't email anybody, just call them up.

Please let us know how your problems are resolved and how you are treated.
