ASUS now has a new inbox called “[email protected]” specifically created to reprocess past RMA requests that customers feel were unfairly labeled, misclassified, or were charged for a service that should be free

ASUS has published a timeline for improvements: June 14th, today, is the publication of this email and template. ASUS has promised us an email this month with other changes.
