Very poor customer services

cant beleive how bad bt r now, just signed up for 18mths provided everything was connected on 15th (phone n broadband) and they agreed, they were to send me out my new number (no sign of it), phoned them today after 2 weeks of nothing n now they say im not getting connected till the 22nd, was on the phone to foreigners for over an hr n got nowhere, im **bleep** raging as im disabled n the internet is all i have, needless to say i wouldnt recommend bt to anyone n as far as im concerned no contract now igsists as they broke it

It's not 'foreigners' fault - the blame is with whoever within BT that thought a call centre in India would actually work regards customer services

Very poor customer service email received back on my cell phone!

I want to complain about whoever responds to questions you post on the forum. I won't tell you the "fake"name. She sent me one email and said I sent my questions to the wrong place. I replied and told her I didn't know. Said I should have used the forum. I replied again to her email on my cell phone and said I was sorry didn't know where forum was and that she had not answered any of my questions. She immediately replied, I'm NOT INTERESTED IN THESE EMAILS ANYMORE, OR WANT TO CHANGE HOW OFTEN THEY COME? UPDATE YOUR EMAIL PREFERENCES.....OTHERWORDS "YOURSELF".
You all are there to HELP, at least I thought so. I am very frustrated and disappointed in this reply. I am going to report this to a manager if I have to!
I replied to her, thank you for not HELPING me (just to kind of be nice about it).
This is totally uncalled for....Verizon needs to shape up or you are going to lose a lot of customers!!!!!

Brian68, Thank you for your reply. But that is because most have a 2 year contract and can't afford to go elsewhere. I'm sorry for being so firm, but I think Customer Support is a thing of the past. Thank you anyway. Hope you have a wonderful day! Dianne

Very Poor Customer Service from Verizon

I want to complain about the very very poor service I have received from Verizon. Since I activated my 3.0MB DSL plan in Sept. I have yet to get an upload speed greater the 0.9MB. I have called Customer Service 2 times, each time I was on the phone for 2 hours and at the end of each conversation I was told that a field service agent would be dispatched to the area because there was a problem with the out side line. I have even sent them emails and feedback, nothing. I ran their in service agent and it too showed a download speed of 0.7MB.
Yet I am still being charged 39.99 each month. Its a New Year and I am still waiting.

Be aware that the final hop (bottom-most line of the trace) will contain a hop with your IP address in it. Remove that line. What I'm looking for is a line that mentions "ERX" in it's name towards the end. If for some reason the trace does not complete (two lines full of Stars), keep the trace route intact.
Can you provide the Transceiver Statistics from the Westell? Visit http://192.168.1.1/for me and do the following:

As a result of very poor customer service, I am a ...

I decided to come back to BT after a 2-year stint with Virginmedia. I think I've made a huge mistake ! It all started so well, too. I signed up to the Anytime Call Plan and Broadband Option 3, with a discount for the first 3 months. It all started very smoothly on 5th December 2011.
I have spent over two hours in total on the phone to customer services in the past 2 weeks, trying to resolve my current bill situation. Clearly there has been a mistake made on BT's part somewhere along the way, but it seems that I, or one of my family, are being accused of stopping our BT phone and Broadband service, which is completely not true. Every time I phone up, everyone I speak with says a mistake has happened and that it will be sorted. I am always told that I will get another call-back within 24 hours. This has never happened.
The first bill was correct. I then received an e-mail saying that BT were sorry to hear that I was leaving and that my service would cease on 9th January. This seems to have been a fault with BT because I have no reason to stop a contract after only one month ! My most recent bill now reflects this supposed termination, charging me for quitting within 12 months etc. And, I have been sent a package to return the Broadband Hub. Nobody will take any responsibility for sorting this out and I feel very very frustrated.
I thought I had made progress yesterday when I was told that all would be remedied and I would be started on a completely new contract etc. (another 18 months, despite being 1.5 months into a contract alreay !!) BT has now signed me up to the 'Evening & Weekend Call Plan', which I don't want. All I want to happen is to be back on the contract that I had signed up to and started on 5th December last year. Can anyone point me in the right direction ?
I have never in my life come across such lousy customer service. To say it's terrible is an understatement !

Very poor customer service!

My wife and I have just switched from AT&T Wireless to Verizon as we will be spending the next year in an area of California that only Verizon covers!
After being with the same company for about 15yrs (ATT&T Wireless was called Cingular before 2005 ) I have to say my 1st experience with Verizon's customer service today was appalling!! I spoke with the 1st person who I had pass me on to a Supervisor and after hitting a brick wall with her another Manager and the attitude was terrible!! really terrible!!
When we went into the store and made the "switch" (2 x iphone 5's, share everything deal 6gb data etc, we had the sales person write down on a piece of paper everything that we would pay, But, when we got the bill there was 2 x $35 activation fee's ($70 total) and even though as all 3 (so called) "customer" service reps kept on reminding me "it is on the paperwork that you signed sir!" (in a very arrogant tone I might add) they failed to understand the very 1st thing about Customer Service and TWO of them where Managers!!!!
I'm not disputing that I signed a contract and that somewhere in that contract it states that we have to pay two $35 activation fee's but the fact that they where totally dismissive about what we had been told & what the Sales person had written down by just saying "well, I wasn't there so I don't know what was "actually" said" Basically this is the same as saying my wife and me where "lying" or they just didn't believe us!!!!!
I deal with clients all the time as my wife does in her business and the 1st rule of thumb in Customer Service "101", "keep the client happy" and even if you can't, never be arrogant or insulting and never,EVER say "well sir I'm sorry but there is nothing I can do for you" because you can bet your life if that was a Sales person trying to get you to sign up with them they would be bending over backwards to make it work. If you can't help in one area help in another "I'm afraid we can't waive those fee's sir but what I will do is put a $50 credit in your account as I understand that you where misled and we value you as a customer" Always compromise and grease the wheel, thats the way business is done!!
In all the years with AT&T whenever we had a billing issue they would (within reason) take the disputed amount off our bill or throw us a bone in another way to keep us happy as customers!!
1st impressions at Verizon is they have NO IDEA what Customer Service is!!!
A very disgruntled NEW Verizon customer!!

please remember I am a customer just like you. Now having said that why do you think you should have two activation fees waived because you had the sales person tell you that you would have to pay them?
by reading your account of what transpired I have the impression that because you called verizon and did not like the fees they should throw you "A Bone" and remove the two fees of $35 each line.
In this case I would say no that isn't going to happen and you knew the prices when you signed up for service.
There is no entitlement feature when you buy service, verizon would have to give that same bone to others that call and say they shouldn't pay the activation fee. which is not going to happen.
if you had a legitimate over charge or a double charge than I would say you are in the right. but not in this case.
And the customer is not always right, customers will lie, they will cry, they will make up any excuse they can to have any company give them what they ask. That is no way to keep a customer happy. its fraud and deceit against a business.

Very poor customer service - manager hung up because he didn't want to help or it was almost 9pm EST

Hello,
Today I realized that even I have became victim of this hidden undisclosed charge which seems to be a SCAM and not treating customer fairly. I was charged $64.99 just for running a wire for TV which is on the other side of the wall in my house. They were just holes that I could have done. It was not an outlet (like electric outlet set up) that the representative and the manager said I was charged for.
Before, ordering the FIOS triple play service I asked the verizon representative online if there is any installation fee but I was told that installation is free if I signup online. I did signup online and tech came to setup. I asked him if there are any charges in making holes and I was told that everything is included but didn't say that I was going to be charged 64.99. He did not install a jack or outlet. They were wires and holes. The tech did a good job in trying to hide the wires and drilling holes but no outlet was installed.
I received my first bill and I was charged $64.99. This is a sham attitude towards the customer by Verizon and from this forum it looks like I am not only the victim. I called with verizon customer service today and she said she cannot do anything about this so she transferred me to a "manager." The manager was not very helpful. I explained my situation and he was not trying to listen because he said that all he can see is "billable.'" Eventually, he hung up on me. I called back and realized that the customer service is closed. I am assuming that the manager is getting ready to leave that's why he hung up.
I am not sure what is worse.. being lied about the charges or hiring incapable managers.

Verizon FiOS Early Termination Fee and Very Poor Customer Service

I posted this as a reply to an earlier thread... but think it deserves a little more attention.... please read. Thank you.
Re: Verizon FiOS Early Termination Fee -- Salesman AND Manager lied
‎08-09-201402:03 PM
This is one organization that I will never do business with agan. You live and learn these days!! They are insisting on charging me the early termination fee of $110.00 even though Verizon DOES NOT offer service in the area I am moving to this August. My conversation with them today started like this:........ I asked if they had service at my new residential address. They indicating they did not and then I was immediately transferred to their "disconnect" department. In this "disconnect" department..... I was told I would have to pay that termination fee anyway regardless of the fact that Verizon does not offer service in that area. This was stated per someone named "Jay" representing Verizon.... This Jay would NOT even consider waiving the termination fee at all... so I asked to speak with his supervisor and got some complete jackass named Freddy who also tells me I must take the HD Set Top boxes to a "corporate" UPS location and that they will not waive my termination fee just because?? So I asked for his last name... which he did not give me... but did give what he said was his employee ID number. ( who really knows if that was a legitimate ID number anyway) So why is it that they would not be willing to waive the fee?? For me ...it is simple to explain..... Because I complained about it.... that is why!! Verizon is very wrong here and this "Freddy" character should be immediately fired. The company's customer service does need an immediate overhaul.... and this Freddy guy is playing with the good name of what once was a very reputable company. However... now.... because Verizon have no legimate process for immediate or quick complaint resolutions, they are quickly becoming a company that many people do not want to do business with anymore. I had a similar experience with Verizon Wireless as well; when I cancelled their service earlier this year..... It is not that the fee that bugs me so much.... even though it makes little sense......It is Verizon's lack of professional customer service and the questionable ethics of many of this company's representatives that has left such a distaste that I will never do business with them anymore. Just my 2 cents... for what it might be worth.

I have also had horrible service with Verizon customer service and their ETF. I moved to a new area that Verizon fios does not cover. When I moved into the new house a few weeks ago, I attempted to cancel their service, but I was told I had to keep it until my phone number was ported to Charter. I called Verizon to cancel my internet/Fios TV only and they said it would be taken care of.
Charter sent a request to them on 11/24/14 to port my phone number and Verizon denied the request a week later. I initially thought it was Charter messing up the port but come to find out, it was Verizon. I called Verizon on 12/08/14 and I was told they denied the port due to an "outstanding" bill. Well that bill was for the month in advance, which doesn't make sense because I had already canceled the service. So they were charging me for the phone, internet, and TV at an empty house. Verizon made me pay the bill so I could get my phone number ported. I paid the fee and they said the the number was ready to be ported. On 12/10/14 I received a call from Charter saying Verizon denied the port AGAIN!!!. So I called Verizon and according to them, Charter never requested the number. That doesn't make sense because I’m sure Charter is doing everything they can because they aren't being paid until that number gets ported over.
I asked the Verizon agents to give me something in writing so I could put it back on Charter but they refused to do so. (Charter gave me written proof documenting Verizon denying the port, so I know Verizon was lying.) So after dealing with Verizon and their laziness I canceled my phone number, which will cause me a lot of heartache in the future. The agent then asked if I was canceling the FIOS TV and Internet. I told him it should have already been canceled, but it wasn't. So they said it will cancel today after they already took my money for the month.
I asked to speak to a supervisor and they agent said, "Why, she wont be able to do anything." I asked him again and he finally agreed to transfer me over. After a 10 minute wait a lady named Karyn I believe, answered the phone. I explained to her how my phone number was not being ported and she said "We don’t block a port, Charter must have messed it up.” I asked her for written documentation and she refused to provide me with anything. I explained to her the reason why I had to move into a new house, due to work and my safety and she said, “Well if your military I could help you but I’m sorry I cant.” She said the only way to get out of paying for the ETF, is if I was deployed over seas fighting a war. Then she said if someone were to die, she could waive the fee...thats ridiculous.
I asked her if I was going to have to pay for the past few weeks of my service, even though I tried to cancel it and they held up my order and she said, “Ill credit you $11.00.” Thats nothing when my bill is $150.00 a month. She did nothing to help even though Verizon dropped the ball on this. Over all I am very disgusted with the employees and supervision with Verizon and I will most likely never to business with them again, unless they admit their mistakes and make it right. I have given them thousands of dollars and hours of my time and this is how they repay you. Oh and by the way, they want me to drive down to the UPS store and return their boxes for them. So they can inconvenience me further.

Lenovo's VERY Poor Customer Service

My new B590 is now a frequent flyer. Two trips to Texas- New MAin Board. 1 or 2 trips to NC. And still doesn't work.
Does not see any WiFi connections. Multiple LOgmein remote attempts, return to authorized repair dealer.
Always same result. Works for three start cycles and dies.
Customer service NC no longer respods. Guess time for another case number. Maybe there is a HIGHER AUTHORITY?????
At this point will not suggest purchase of Lenovo products.
PLEASE HELP!!!

Very, very poor customer service

I've been using Comcast. Both their customer support and billing systems & people as lousy so I decided to try FIOS. Two weeks ago, a guy came out to install and there was a problem with the conduit from my house to the box. That's no biggie and he said he'd set a service call with the ground people to rewire.
A couple of days after, someone called to set up an appointment to reinstall, and I told the person to call back when the ground wiring was fixed because I didn't need to waste yet another day waiting around if the thing wasn't fixed.
It's now been two weeks. The flags marking other cabling/pipes are gone, so I called to see what's happening. I got forwarded to three different numbers and sat on hold for more than 30 minutes at the last place. I hung up.
If your service is just as bad, there's no need to switch. You really need to work on that.

I had the same basic thing, They buried my line just two inches below the ground. At one point they just barely went over the root of a tree and it started to be exposed. I called, they sent out someone who basically pushed some of my mulch over the exposed spot and left in a hurry. I eventually got out there myself and cut the root and buried the line deeper.
Later you will find you have slow speeds too. Small print says 'up to', but rarley does it go 'up to' the speeds they promise.
I'm just waiting for Googles 100 times speed fiber and hopefully I can jump over to them, because sometimes FIOS doesn't seem any faster than dial-up. Getting customer service is a maze. Not 'amazing', a maze.
Good luck.
When you buried the line, you made sure you did not bend it or puncture the jacket on the fiber cable, right? You cannot bend Fiber as far as copper can and if bent, can really reduce the signal coming into your ONT. It *may* be why your FiOS service isn't working right some days. Just something to consider. Also, see if neighbors (ideally those with quick computers. I've seen too many old Pentium 4 machines with 256MB of RAM out there on FIOS grinding to a halt) have the same problem.
I'd report Service Trouble if the above holds true and get Verizon out to do a re-bury. Make sure they are also complying with the minimum required depth for your municipality first. If you live in a freeze area, it never hurts to bury a cable a few inches down. In my area they do it 1 spade deep as a minimum. The cables that are buried just below the surface are usually killed by landscapers or get waterlogged/frozen, which ruins them. The ones deeper can still get waterlogged but the ice won't bother them, which helps it last longer. In Florida (if your name suggests anything) they may be concerned about water from digging down too deep. My understanding is the land in Florida has a high water table.

The first to bring me 1Gbps Fiber for $30/m wins!

Very poor Customer Service for 5th Gen IPOD

Hello,
I have been trying to get the missing parts for the 5th Gen Ipod Video I received for Christmasfor the past couple of hours. The box was never opened and wrapped in cellophane. It is missing the earbuds, foam earbud pads and usb cable along with anything else that comes with it. So I go on the tech support site and nothing is offered for missing parts. I call customer service who then tells me I have to call Tech support. I call Tech support who then transfers me to customer service. Customer service then tells me that if it wasn't ordered thru Apple.Com I'm SOL. I asked to speak to a manager. Shannon in customer service instead transfers me back to Tech support. So I waited and politely spoke to them telling them what I have gone thru. Justin in Tech support asks me to hold for a couple of minutes which I do then he disconnects me. I'm on the website looking for an email to Apple customer service and can't find one. Can anybody help with an email contact to get my missing parts. Taking the IPOD back would involve shipping back up North to have the person who gave it to me as a gift to take it back then reship it back to me. I had never had an issue with previous IPODS and this is just insane.
Thanks,
Jeff

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
Sorry for all of the trouble
Call this number again...
1-800-275-2273
And tell them what has happened, what you have gone through, etc. Be polite and just say that you are just looking to get headphones that didn't come with (although I find this strange, but I'm not at all saying that you are lying).
Apple doesn't really have email support for iPods, so I'd just call again and explain what you've gone through.
Good Luck!

IPad controlling itself and very poor customer service ;-(

Hi,
I have a iPad 64gb 3g First Generation and it has starting controllingitself after around a minutes use.
If i open the drawing app, it will start drawing itself, if i open notes, itwill start typing itself. Unfortunately, it's about 2 months out ofwarranty but i booked and attended a Genius Bar appointment today.
Beforehand, I had reinstalled ios 5, setup as a new iPad, taken it's out ofthe case, removed the screen protector and the problem is still there.
I arrived early at the Covent Garden Store in London and was told to waitand would be called when my turn. The member of staff didn't seemintrested in me nor very welcoming therefore very un-approachable for me.
I had then been kept waiting for over 40 minutes by which time I then askedanother member of staff how much longer as other customers who arrived aftermyself have already been seen too. I was then told that I am not checkedin and have missed my appointment. I was then re-added to the queue andfinally seen to.
I showed the Genius Bar representative my faulty iPad who took it behind tothe repair room and then said there is nothing we can do, it is faultyand a exchange will cost you £279+Vat but it is not worth it and advised toupgrade to an ipad 2.
The iPad is in brand new condition, not a mark anywhere, never been dropped,dented, dinged and now i have an iPad iBrick.
Is this normal for apple?
Is there anything else i can do try and revive my ipad? ;'-(
Thanks
A very loyal upset icustomer!

I'm not sure what it is you're asking about being "normal". If you are asking about the failure being normal, no, it's not, but anything can fail at any time. Physical damage isn't necessary; something like a power surge could take out a weak component, and a static shock can damage even otherwise-pristine components.
If you're asking about the policy of being charged, then if your iPad is out of warranty and has suffered a hardware failure, then yes, this is entirely normal, and would be normal for any manufacturer of just about any product. You can try resetting and restoring the iPad and see if that makes a difference, but if that doesn't, then you will have to pay Apple's standard replacement charge for out-of-warranty service that you were quoted, or look for a third-party iPad repair service and see if they can fix it for less (doubtful but you can shop around and see).
Regards.

Very poor customer service at store

Today when I was in the Best Buy store at BURBANK IL (Store 311), I tried to use my virtual mastercard from the Mario Kart 8 promo from Best buy, it state it being accepted at any retailer that accept Mastercard. When I try to check out, the cashier refuse to take it and a manager “claim” it can only be used for online purchases. I am upset and left the store and reread the card and it stated clearly in line 1: “accepted at any retailer that accept MasterCard”. I felt being lie to and being tricked.

Greetings xellos2099,
Assuming you are talking about our My Best Buy Credit Card, it sounds like you may have successfully applied either in store or online. While this card is accepted at any retailers that accept MasterCard, there are a couple of things that are standing out to me in your post that I’d like to clarify.
As I’m not sure how you applied, it can be tricky to narrow down why a manager may have denied your purchase. Like DanK mentions though, we would require the physical card be in hand at the time of purchase with two exceptions.
1) If you applied in-store at the time of purchase, we may be able to use your new virtual credit card for the purchase you are trying to make. After that, we would require you to wait for the physical card to come in the mail.
2) If you applied online, you may use the virtual card as many times as you like using www.BestBuy.com. As DanK mentions, you may use our Store Pickup option should you wish to ship it to a store location for free.
Having said that, how did you apply? I’ll be glad to see what options we may have available to help you.
I hope to hear from you soon,

Re: Poor customer service-very disappointed

I called Best Buy Rewards customer service for missing points and 3 times I was put on hold and the agent never picked up the phone. On the 4th time, I asked to speak to a supervisor and was put on hold again and again nobody picked up. I made a $1600 purchase that was 3x the points and never got the points and customer service does not want to help. Very poor customer service for a big company like Best Buy.

Good afternoon madaraseafood,
Welcome to the Best Buy forum, and thank you for connecting with us.
It is entirely possible the agent you spoke with put you on hold in-order to review your My Best Buy™ account, but there is no reason you should have to spend a portion of your day sitting on the phone. That is not the level of customer service that Best Buy strives to provide, and that is why I would suggest coming to the forum first if you have any future My Best Buy™ questions, as I am always happy to help.
After reviewing your open case, it appears the purchase in-question was made at one of our Pacific Sales stores. The points for an eligible Pacific Sales or Magnolia purchase do not post to a member's account in the same way as those for an everyday Best Buy purchase. It can generally take between 20 - 35 days for points to post, which does not start until after any scheduled deliveries are completed.
While we do need to wait a full 35 days before looking at any other options, I would like to gather some additional information and go over your My Best Buy™ account with you. To accomplish that, I will be sending you a private message. You can check your private messages by logging into the forum and clicking on the little yellow envelope icon at the top of the page. I look forward to further speaking with you.
I hope that you enjoy the rest of your day.

Poor Customer Service Received

Just to help myself feel better. Yesterday, May 29,2014 had a very bad experience at a Verizon store in Macon GA at 4590 Billy Williamson Dr. Was greeted by a lady with an ipad in hand. When asked what she could help us with today I responded that I wanted to see if I was eligible for an upgrade. She entered my name and cell number on ipad and said there were four customers ahead of myself. I knew I was in for a long wait but decided to stay until my turn. After sitting there for about 30 minutes I had noticed two salespeople exit to their cars. Closing time is 8 pm and it was about 7:30. After a long wait of 57 minutes I saw her point my way to a salesperson. He stayed behind counter and she approached us and asked again, what can she help us with today. I repeated, I wanted to see if I was eligible for an upgrade. She asked and entered my cell number and responded that out of three phones an upgrade would not be until September of this year but I could opt for a plan that would be about $29 more a month to upgrade. Now, I have been sitting there for almost a hour and it took her about 45 seconds to answer the question I had when I first walked in! Time can not be bought and I was so angry about the poor customer service I received at that store. She could have looked up the info at beginning and I would have been on my way. I can assure you that Verizon may have all the customers they will ever need but when my contract ends they will lose my business which is about $200 per month. Very poor customer service at the Billy Williamson Drive location in Macon Ga.
Thank you, feels better just to sent this!

Brian68, Thank you for your reply. But that is because most have a 2 year contract and can't afford to go elsewhere. I'm sorry for being so firm, but I think Customer Support is a thing of the past. Thank you anyway. Hope you have a wonderful day! Dianne

Their churn rate for the 2nd quarter of 2012 which ended on Jun 30th was 0.84%. Which means 99.16% of the customers they had on March 31st 2012 were still with them on June 30th 2012.

Poor Customer Service/Billing

I went into the store located in Sumter, SC to merge my account with my girlfriend's to save money. She was on a data plan and I was not. We upgraded mine and went with the new share everything plan. My complaint is the fact that either the store employees were unable/unwilling to give me a bottom line on what this would cost between the three lines on my account plus adding hers. The sales rep stated that the primary would be "about $100 and $30 for each additional line but this does not include taxes and additional fees". I asked several times for what the bottom line cost would be and was told they did not know. I find it highly unbelievable that their billing department can figure this out in the next 30 days, but no one in the store can tell me what exactly our new combined services will cost. Very poor customer service. If this plan ends up costing more than what we started with, you can bet I'll be canceling my services.
