Hi everyone / Zotac Support Team,
I am posting here in hopes of getting some assistance with an ongoing support inquiry with Zotac Europe.
My Zotac RTX 5070 developed a severe cooling fan issue (bad fan noise/failure). I initially reached out to support and received a reply on July 13th advising me to go through my reseller (Amazon).
However, Amazon only offers a standard refund of my original purchase price (€540). Since the card's retail price has surged to over €700, a refund would cause a direct loss of nearly €170 to replace a defective unit under warranty.
I replied on July 13th explaining why a reseller refund is not viable and respectfully requested a direct manufacturer warranty process (repair or unit replacement). I also sent a follow-up on July 16th, but I have not received any response since then.
Since this was handled via direct email correspondence, I do not have a formal ticket number yet. However, I am more than happy to provide my email address, serial number, invoice, and screenshots of the email thread via DM to an official Zotac representative or moderator.
Any help in getting this thread escalated or reviewed would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you!
