Deal With Dell's Obtuse Financial Department

Meh. That just means it'll be more expensive. $4200 is already a bit too rich for my blood. :shrug:

Besides, the model I'm getting comes with dual NVIDIA 980 cards standard. I also bought an external "Graphics Amplifier" that I can use to freely swap additional desktop GPUs in and out basically as soon as the latest models come on the market. That should tide me over for a good long while (assuming I ever actually get the damn thing :roll: ).



Lol. Well, to be fair, I was planning on paying off $500 of that every paycheck, and I'm still here for almost another two months. I just didn't want to drop almost 5 Gs all at once.

The financing was directly through Dell's own website, and their own financial service. If it turns out that's unsecure, you'd better BELIEVE I'm taking it to the BBB. :lol:

get an unsecured loan....and then use that pay pay dell cash

You got tripped by the "How long at your current residence?" question.

That wasn't asked, but I think I may have actually figured out what the problem was either way regardless. My billing address got screwed up somehow.

I'm training in Arizona right now, but I live in South Carolina. So, obviously, the shipping and the billing address for my account are going to be different.

Well... I was looking over my account last night, trying to find something I might have missed, and I noticed that they had the shipping address as my billing address. That is completely wrong, and was probably why they couldn't verify my identity.

I really don't know how that could have happened. I pretty clearly remember putting my billing address down correctly when I was entering my info for the initial credit check. Obviously, I passed that, because I was approved. Maybe there was a checked box somewhere on the order page I missed that merged the two addresses?

Either way, I have no idea why the morons on Dell's hotline couldn't just tell me that, so I could explain away the misunderstanding. Locking up like clams and asking me to wait an indefinite amount of time for some vague snail mail solution is simply asinine.
