Given no choice by snotty foreign call center

I decieded to join because it seems people on here make more sense than the people manning the phones! Firstly i cannot stand bt and cannot wait to leave them after my contract ends in nov this year.
But in the meantime i have yet anther problem with them.........I have always paid my bills quarterly, i only have line rental from them, i couldnt even think of giving them much more responsibility than that!!
I recently moved house last nov, and received my first bill on 3rd dec. I paid over the phone but as i was having trouble with the auto service it put me through to customer services - it was the one time i got to speak to a lovely lady based in the uk, she took my payment and we had a chat and she mentioned my next one isnt until march.
So on dec 18th i received a bill from bt.........i ignored it because i had already paid ( and my next one wasnt until march) ...just after xmas my phone was restricted, i rang to see why.
Because i hadnt paid my bill!! I questioned it and the snotty guy in a far away land told me i had been put on ,monthly billing (which i havent asked for!!) and i will get late payment fee, and reconnection fee and whatever else!!
He informed me i should pay my bills on time!!! so not to get restriction!!
I explained i always pay quarterly, the lady before said next bill march, i dont want monthly.........but he said nothing he could do!!
Ok so i paid out £30 for a month! and i recieved my next one due on 22nd jan for £38!!
BT certainly have a way of doing you over...and using joeys to do it.
End of story, i want my quarterly bills back!!

    Hey guys,We're in a fortunate licencing position, whereby we could be compared to kids in a sweetshop with Microsoft products. And my predecessor took advantage of that massively. However, our parent company foots the bill and now want us to stop using SCCM.I personally am not familiar enough with it to call myself competent in it's use and the previous guy tried to use it to push out images to PCs etc but failed.I am now in a position, whereby I need to get rid of this and I want to start using WDS.I have a fresh Server 2012 R2 box with WDS installed. I've configured it, so it should work fine.
    I think I have found the one place in SCCM where I stop telling it to process PXE requests and so have stopped that.However, whenever I get a machine to PXE boot, it still looks to that old SCCM box. And if I press F12, it boots from it.Anyone...

  • 1)     When call center Team creates Service Request/Service Order/  Complaints it should be set as High Priority by default.

    Hello team ,this is my requirement ..   Through customizing..
    When call center Team creates Service Request/Service Order/  Complaints it should be set as High Priority by default...we need to set only interaction agent bussiness role priority only HIGH..only for this bussiness role.through customizing how to do it..what are the steps..through customizing only please.. help

    By customizing, you can set a default priority to a given transaction type.
    But this does not depend on the business role.
    But as you are talking about IC agents, maybe you can check IDI for this purpose, because there are actions like "Set Problem Priority", "Set Service Request Priority" or "Set Service Order Priority".

  • Erica Phone rep from California call center said order is placed and awaiting supervisor's approval, but NOTHING was placed and no follow up

    Erica Phone rep from California call center said order is placed and awaiting supervisor's approval, but NOTHING was placed and no follow up.  I'm very displeased with Verizon customer Service.  I guess I should expect that, given they are this giant and why should they care about 1 customer, even if its a very loyal one. 
    I was told that my order for an iPhone is placed and all it need is to get an approval from supervisor for a $300 coupon off a regular priced device.  This "need supervisor's approval" apparently is how Verizon reps get people off the line and forget about any promises made.  I called to follow-up and was told that someone from the call center will call me back.  Guest What??? No one did, even after I went to the corporate store in downtown San Francisco and spoke to the store manager there.
    I guess I should lower my expectations about a company which spends billions on advertisement, but delivers empty promises.

    gvitalik - You'll need to send a Follow request (located in the upper right-hand corner of their profile page) to AyaniB_VZW that they'll have to approve.  They likewise will need to send you a Follow request that you'll have to approve.  Once you both are Following each other, then you can send them a Direct Message.

  • HT5463 I turn the do not disturb button on and I am not given any options for setting or calls allowed. Does anyon have a fix for this?

    I turn the do not disturb button on and I am not given any options for setting or calls allowed. Does anyon have a fix for this?

    Do Not Disturb and Notifications
    Push notifications appear in Notification Center and alert you to new information, even when the
    associated app isn’t running. Notifications vary by app, but may include text or sound alerts, and
    a numbered badge on the app icon on the Home screen.
    Turn off all notifications: Go to Settings and turn on Do Not Disturb. When it’s turned on and
    iPhone is locked, all notifications and calls are silenced, but alarms will still sound. You can set the
    following options in Settings > Notifications > Do Not Disturb:
    • Automatically turn on Do Not Disturb: Set the starting and ending hours for when you don’t
    want to be disturbed. iPhone turns on Do Not Disturb during these hours each day.
    • Allow some phone calls during Do Not Disturb: When Do Not Disturb is on, calls are silently sent
    to voice mail. To allow some callers to ring through, tap Allow Calls From. You can allow calls
    from your Favorites list or other Contacts groups you define. For information about Favorites,
    see Chapter 25, Contacts, on page 100.
    • Allow persistant callers to ring through: Turn on Repeated Calls. If the same caller (based on
    their Caller ID) calls you twice within three minutes, iPhone will ring.
    Turn an app’s notifications on or off: Go to Settings > Notifications. Tap an item in the list, then
    turn notifications on or off for that item. Apps that have notifications turned off appear in the Not in Notification centre

  • I am working from home in virtual call center. I urgently need Firefof 5, all above cause problems and crashes. Can you please advise how I can download FF 5, it is urgent. Thank you.

    I was running Firefox 5 and have been able to protect it against new versions, but now I am not being warned that there is a new version being snuck in without telling me about it.
    The problem is that I work in a virtual call center from home, and the new version is creating problems I never had before.
    Is there a way you can supply me with a link to FF5, and how do I protect it against new versions being installed on my machine. This is extremely important as I earn my living from the call center.
    Thanks and look forward to your reply.

    Perhaps you've already fixed this, but the first two links you showed us do work fine in FF and IE8,  I can not say about the third link as I did not see it on  your page.
    Are you still having trouble with this?

  • How to Integrate Oracle Access Manager 11g with Siebel Call Center 7.8

    I need to change the DB authentication to SSO for Siebel Call Center 7.8. I just found a document about integrationg OAM 10g with Siebel 7 (http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28196_01/idmanage.1014/b25347/siebel.htm#Siebel). However, because it's mandatory to use OAM 11g, I don't know whether this doc is suitable for Siebel 7.8. In addition, is it the right way to configure Siebel SSO? I know, in this way, I need to install WebGate. Please give me some expertise. Thanks.

    This should work as long as your web server and operating system support 11g. There may be some differences in how to set up OAM and the WebGate in 11g versus 10g (that is not my area of expertise), but from the Siebel side the integration is the same. You would pass in the user's Siebel ID (pulled from the LDAP directory) as an HTTP header. Then you just need to tweak a few of the parameters in Siebel:
    For the Security Adapter Profile (LDAPSecAdpt most likely) you are using, set:
    SingleSignOn = True
    TrustToken = HELLO (or whatever value you choose)
    In eapps.cfg or eapps_sia.cfg in the virtual directory section for the specific application object manager (e.g. [sales_enu]) set:
    UserSpec = SIEBEL_USER (or whatever HTTP header name you set up in OAM)
    UserSpecSource = HEADER
    SingleSignOn = TRUE
    TrustToken = HELLO (or whatever value you selected for the Security Adapter profile TrustToken parameter)
    ProtectedVirtualDirectory = /sales_enu
    The protected virtual directory will normally be the same as the virtual directory (in this example /sales_enu) unless you are using customer facing applications with anonymous browsing capabilities (for example a catalog that goes to a shopping cart at some point in the process).
    Also in the [SWE] section of the eapps.cfg file the IntegratedDomainAuth parameter should be set to False.
    Hope this information is helpful.

  • Oracle SOA Integration with Siebel 8.0 Call Center Application

    Hi Experts,
    I am trying to Integrate Oracle Fusion SOA and Siebel 8.0 and I have been following http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17904_01/doc.1111/e17056/bpel_pm.htm as a reference.
    Here is what I have done so far:
    Created an Inbound Web service (Account Web Service) by login into Siebel Call Center Application. I was able to generate the WSDL file successfully. This WSDL has following operations :
    (a) AccountInsert
    (b) AccountQueryByExample
    (c) AccountQueryById
    If I understand it correctly, this is like any other wsdl file which can be consumed and operations can be invokved by consumers (web service clients)
    I have couple of doubts/questions :
    (1) Once WSDL is generated by the Siebel Client, it can be used in my BPEL process/composite apps to perform the integration. If this statement is true, why and where do we need Siebel Adapter?
    (2) While I was following the online tutorial @ http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17904_01/doc.1111/e17056/bpel_pm.htm , I can see, WSDL was generated by using the Application Explorer (a swing based tool provided by Oracle as a part of Adapter framework). But I have used Siebel Call Center to generate the WSDL file. Which is the standard way of generating the WSDL file?
    (3) In the tutorial mentioned above, I can see request and response xsd files (i.e queryWithView_invoke_request.xsd queryWithView_invoke_response.xsd) . No where in the tutorial has mentioned, how these files were created. Are these hand written files by the developer, or it is something that can be created out of the wsdl itself?
    (4) Also, there is a .jca file (queryWithView_invoke.jca) which is also being used while configuring the Third Party Adapter. Where does queryWithView_invoke.jca come from? Is it something that is created from Application Explorer?
    Would really appreciate if someone can throw lights on these gray areas....
    Waiting for an eagerly reply...
    Thanks in Advance !

    Hi,
    If you are talking about configuring the outbound WS , then you need to go to Siebel > Administration-Webservices> Outbound Webservices

  • FTE and volume based billing for a call center operations

    hi,
    we have a call center handling operations only for intercompany customers (means no external customers). And we want to go for a solution based on two business processes. first one is FTE (Full time equivalent) and the second is volume based billing (based on how many tickets received between a time period).
    The solution approach will be to create cost centers to track costs and billing through normal SAP sales order.
    Can anybody guide me through the process here with some explanation or documentation related to this?
    Thank you all

    hi,
    this is to inform you that,
    create a master contract - 1st step.
    create a value and a service contract - 2nd step.
    link this two low level contracts to master contracts.
    different pricing procedures will be there for value and service contracts each.
    the process flow of this is :
    1. for value contract : MASTER CONTRACT - SALES ORDER - DELIVERY - BILLING.
    2. for service contract : MASTER CONTRACT - SALES ORDER - BILLING.
    hope this clears your issue.
    please let me know if you have any doubts on the same.

  • FSCM Biller Direct Call Center Payment Log

    Hi,
    We are using Biller Direct and Biller Direct Call Center for our dealers/customer AR processing.
    Biller Direct is used by our Dealers to see their account balance and post payment online through Biller Direct web portal.
    Biller Direct Call Center is used by our Account Receivable team to see our dealers account balance and to post payment with authorization from our dealers.
    The main question is:
    How can we see the deatilpayment log/detail on transaction posted through Biller Direct Call Center? Our AR team needs to identify which user from AR team that perform a specific payment. Please advise.
    Is this something that can be setup through XCM or R/3 configuration?
    We need to get the detail of "User ID" and "Date & Time" that a payment is done through Biller Direct Call Center.
    I tried to look from the document changes on AR line item detail of the billing document that got paid. But, the document changes is only showing that user BD_POOL made the payment posting. The user id is setup in XCM for posting any transaction into R/3.
    Appreciate your help in advance.
    Thanks,
    Markus

    Mohit,
    Let me try to answer your questions:
    u2022 What accounting entries are passed from SAP perspective and at what points in time?
    A) SAP will post a CREDIT to the Customer AR item and a DEBIT to a Credit Card Receivable account when the payment is posted in FI.  The DEBIT to the Credit Card Receivable account is included in the nightly Settlement run to be sent to the Processor for a deposit request.
    u2022 How are charges levied by banks / financial institutions handled or can be handled?
    A) There are Processor charges for authorizations and other services such as Fraud checking as well as the INTERCHANGE fee that is a percentage of the Settlement amount.  This could be anywhere from 1.5% to 4% of the Invoice amount depending on the type of transaction and the agreement with the Processor.
    u2022 How any fees / charges imposed by network processors / clearing houses handled on a transactional basis?
    A) The processor will assess and collect these fees, typically on a monthly or daily basis and provide reporting to the Merchant regarding the fees charged.
    u2022 Is this something which Standard SAP Config can accommodate and if yes where exactly? If not what custom development route is appropriate?
    A) Standard SAP does not have the ability to assist with Settlement reconciliation or recognition/assignment of processing fees.  This must be accomplished through Manual postings.
    u2022 Does addition of third party providers like pay metric for interface plug-in help in segregating and processing of credit card charges any better?
    A) Yes, ISVs such as Paymetric which provide integration between SAP and the processors do provide additional SAP and external reporting and functionality to assist with the reconciliation process and in determining the processing fees.

  • How to stop Call Center Agents from Moving Headsets around

    We are call center with about 200 agents at a time in the building. We go thru headsets like they are candy. But we just got told to no longer use cheap headsets. So we are slowly cycling in the new headsets. So any Ideas on how to keep headsets from moving stations. Our agents destroy headsets anyway, so I don't know how well these new ones are gonna last. They also move keyboards, mice as well. They have very little respect for the equipment and think breaking them is going to give them a new one faster. Let me know what you guys think.

    I think you are seeing what is called the Ken Burns Effect. You can change this setting using the Rotate, Crop, Ken Burns Tool on the middle toolbar. You can select Fit, Crop, or Ken Burns. Fit will make your photo fit by letterboxing. Crop will make your photo fit by cropping the top and bottom off. Ken Burns allows you to Pan around. You can set the starting and ending rectangles for the pan.
    Also, if you go to File/Project Properties you can set the default action for "Initial Photo Placement" to Fint, Crop, or Ken Burns.
