Dealing with Nikon customer service?

9 years 11 months ago #378364 by Kristy Blake
I don't mean to be negative, but Nikon customer service really needs help IMO.  Can I ask your opinion on something?  How long would it typically take to get a camera back that you sent in for simple repair from Nikon? 

I was originally 5 days and it's turned into 14 and they still haven't shipped.

They are not great communicators, but you don't want them rushing a repair, do you? .....:whistle:

Why so serious?

I'm a member of NPS and get priority service, but they rarely have one of my cameras or lenses more than 4 days. The rest of the time is shipping out and back.

Well I have only used repair once a few years back on the mounting hardware of a 70-200mm lens.  I thought the service and speed of getting the lens back was rather quick.  I'm guessing if you had tough time reaching them, is because of they are just busy.
