Customer Service
-
I HATE calling customer service or any kinda tech support!!!!
Even as I type, I get transfered here there everywhere. And then kena press this press that.
For this press 1, for that press 2 and the list goes on~~~~
ARGHHHHHHHH~~~~~~~~~ -
robot:to top up your balance, please say top up. to check you balance, please say check balance
me: check balance
robot: did you say check balance? if you did, please say yes...
me: yes
robot: what is your password
me: XXXX
robot: please hold on........your balance is $XX.XX. if you would like to blah blah...please say blah blah...if you would like to blah blah blah, please say blah blah blah, if you would like me to shut up and give you some peace, please say end
me: end
but at least this is ok. my dad once had to spend 10+ minutes going through pressing this number and that number. and at the end of it...he still ended up talking to a machine!!!!!!! -
oh...and they should have better music for us to listen to instead of those rubbishy ads....when we have to wait for someone...
-
ooohhhh.......thanks udon.......for making me laugh!!! i was upset 'cos i kena call this toopid tech support TWICE and kena walked through the same routine all over!!!! arghhhh....i hate it, i hate it!!!!!
anyways, just needed to whine. cool down a bit liao cos the issue sort of got resolved. well, hopefully!!!
but u know? rogers right? they use voice activated system. just like our bank's telephone directory. at least rogers' can recognize my s'pore accent. our bank's toopid directory? the computer can't understand my engrish!!!
what an idiot!!! -
Grrrrrrr .... Rogers wireless ......
not only their automated phone system sucks ... their website sucks too ... I spat blood trying to set up the automatic monthly bill payment thingy ... -
yea...somehow...when its not a human you talk to...u usually have to do it a few times before u can get things done...
once my dad got really mad and started telling the person what a lousy system they had when the poor person answered...
but...rogers cant recognize my mom's accent! and she has to repeat 'check balance' sooo many times...
and hers is...a dunno what...born-in-hk-raised-in-hk-n-canada-and-spent-10+-years-in-singapore accent

ooohhh......udon.........u ARe giving me a stomach ache!!!! -
but really...my mom hates rogers.
not cos of the phone thing lah...
cos u know...there is this ad where a rogers phone user can talk in the elevator while the other phone user cant.
kns...our phones are all roger phones and i cant hear A THING when im in the elevator!!!! in fact my mom's phone has no reception in half of pluto...
si rogers...trick pple one!!!!! -
hee hee.........izzit? really?
well, i hardly use my cell phone. in fact, i am on this really cheap plan so i didn't give out my cell number.
i have 100 minutes but each month, i only use like under 20 minutes. and with family plan, i have 2500 minutes but also use less than 30 minutes.
i am talking A MONTH leh!!!!
rogers has been trying to get us to change to home phone but we always decline. don't really like their service but then kena stuck 'cos i am on contract. got free phone mah. -
thats ok lah....
my plan is $100 for a year
33 cents a minute. in going and out going calls
so udon cant give out his number to too many pple also...
and anyways, half the time i turn off my phone...
and we cant get family plan cos thats for THREE years... -
i am the same. my cell is mostly turned off also.
now i am wondering why i am paying C$5 each month for caller ID. i shd terminate that service.

this is why i like japan. except for the post office, every customer service that i called lead straight to a living and breathing operator. the post office one is excusable since the line is particularly for redelivery of items, need to key to in numericals. in this sense, humans are more likely to make mistakes.
and then recently i had to call DBS because they decided to put in a new authenticaiton method and not notify me, then locked my account. so i was forced to call them long distance, and then put on hold for 5 bloody minutes. wtf. and the auntie on the other end didn't even sound singaporean. sounds indian. couldn't handle much singlish. -
lol ! same here, it took me an hour just to do it..Originally posted by Fatum:Grrrrrrr .... Rogers wireless ......
