Vista upgrade

Hi

Can anyone whos filled in the acer web form to upgrade to vista help?

http://www.acer.co.uk/acereuro/page9...crc=4262498838

The email that comes back asks for the orginal receipt and redemption
form. Theres no mention of what the redemption form actually is. Also
do you get the receipt back.

Don't want someone with my address and part debit card details. Then
theres the problem of getting 12 month warranty in the UK if they
don't return the receipt.with no receipt.

When I go to the order update site - it just states order comfirmed.
Is it or not?

No answers from acer to my emails.

Thanks.

Rich

Well I filled in the form yesterday and paid the postage fee of £14 by cc
which they dont deduct until dispatch.The only problem that I have with the
procedure is WE will have to fax a COPY of our receipts to the Netherlands
address.
Why no UK address?
I have emailed them to clarify

regards

Don't mind faxing the receipt - could do that from work. But that
option isn't even listed - postage of orginal only?

Thanks.

Received the below from acer today - may of interest to others :

========================

You only need the redemption form if you have a self built computer or
if
you bought Media Center Edition 2005 without a computer.

You get the Redemption Form from your reseller.

After you ordered on the website, you send us the copy of Proof of
Purchase
by email (scan it in) or by fax or by post.

It seems strange to me that we are all going to the same page and
submitting the same response but getting different results. I
submitted my request to upgrade a week ago and the only option for the
UK is by Fax to 00800-666-44-666.

I have tried repeatedly to fax my receipt with no joy. It is currently
sat in the fax which has been on constant redial for over 2 days now.
I am starting to get annoyed to say the least.

Has anyone successfully faxed their receipt to these people?
