I cannot believe how bad Bose customer service is.   I have spent hours on the phone trying to get a shipping label so I can send my faulty product in for repairs, Bose is unable to correct my address In the system, so they keep sending me a label with the wrong address so my product would not get returned to me. No one responds to my emails or chats and I am disconnected after 45 minutes on the phone with them yesterday. I will not buy another Bose product, especially since my expensive speaker broke after less than two years of use.  

Bose product name Smart speaker 500

What devices were you using that were affected and what version are they on (e.g. Samsung Galaxy S9 on Android 11, iPhone X on iOS14, etc.)

Detailed description of the issue and steps to reproduce

 

What environment do you experience the issue in? (e.g. noisy office, quiet kitchen, etc.)

 

When did you start to experience the issue? Did it work correctly previously?

How much are they going to charge to repair?  With repair and freight, it might be better to scrap it and buy something new.  If you got two years use, maybe you got your money's worth.
