<![CDATA[ Updated: Fry's Electronics Home Office Company Directory ]]> Inside, the Fry's Electronics Home Office corporate directory. Some of these extensions are duplicates, but the list seems to work in general. If you're having trouble getting traction on a customer service issue with the notoriously difficult to reach company, this could be your lodestar. Update: An insider went through the giant phone list and broke out the upper-level people by their job area.

They also add, "Don't be afraid to use the "Tell Randy" forms. He really does read every single one. If its a complaint, mail it yourself so it doesn't get lost. You can find these at the Front Check Out, or by the PIC Podium."

REBATES
If you don't get a satisfactory answer, contact Ginger Bautista at (408) 487-4743. She is the person in charge of all rebate issues at home office. She will cut you a check and ding the vendor who refused to pay. It's written into every contract that Fry's reserves the right to deduct any unpaid rebates from their account. (Please make sure that you did everything as requested. They can't help you if you missed the deadline, or possibly just failed to read the instructions.)
