Worst customer service and still on going foir near on 18 months

I manage the laptop pool in a large private school, we bought 750 x220i's for th student body, we also spent close to $45,000 to buy the extended warranty and next day on site warranty, all was good for the first 12 months, we got what we paid for, then without notifing us it became a 5 day on site repair, now im told it is a minimum 10 day turn around, but most parts are up to 30 days, we have had several machines waiting since late January, and if i get someone at customer service to look i get a "parts unavailable and no ETA on them"....Seriously this isnt what we paid for, and now the lease is up and we need to loo kat further PC's i doubt any recommendation for Lenovo will be forth coming.

  • WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE AND CLIENT SUPPORT OF ANY COMPUTER COMPANY EVER

    i bought the new thinkpad and recd the end of dec 2012. I recoomended it to many in my company and am sorry they all started buying them. We all got the ultra book think pads. My was core 17-quite expensive/4333 SERIES. I bought iT with the warranty. NOTE- WHEN YOU BUY THE THINK PAD - YOU NEED THE EXTRA WARANTY NO ONE TELLS YOU ABOUT -PRO WARRANTY.THE WARANTY YOU GET FOR 3 YEARS IS BOGUS. 
    i USED MY THINK PAD LIGHTLY AND ALWAYS TOOK GOOD CARE OF IT. I PREPARED FOR 6 MONTHS A PROJECT AND HAD IT SAVED TO MY HARD DRIVE BUT NO COPIES. THE MACHINE WENT COMPLETELY DEAD. I PANICKED AS THE INFO WAS NEEDED FOR A MAJOR PRESENTATION I AM MAKING NEXT WEEK. 
    i CALLED LENOVA IMMEDIATELY AND THEY FGAVE ME 5 PHONE NUMBERS SO I CAN BRING IT IN AND HAVE IT SERVICED. IT WAS UNDER WARANTY UNTIL 2015.
    ALL 5 PLACES THEY GAVE DO NOT FIX THE COMPUTERS. I CALLED LENOVO BACK BECAUSE THEY COULD NOT EVEN FIND A DEALER THAT COULD FIX THE MACHINE. I SENT IT TO THEM ON THE 25TH. ON THE 27TH I USED MY CASE NUMBER AND FOUND IT WAS IN REPAIR. I CALLED ON THE 27,28,29,30,1,2,3, I SPOKE TO EVERY DEPARTEMT AND COLLECTIVELY SPENT 30 HOURS OF TIME(YES I WAS HING UP ON, SENT TO WORNG DPARTMENTS, PLACED ON HOLD FOREVER) TRYING TO TRACK MY COMPUTER AND THE PROBLEM. EVERY PERSON SAYS "I AM SORRY, I UNDERSTAND , ETC. THEY DO NOT. I NEEDED TO EITHER RETRIEVE THE INFO FROM THE HARDRIVE OR HAVE IT REPAIRED BEFORE I LEAVE FOR EUROPE IN 2 DAYS FOR A POWER POINT PRESENTATON THAT TOOK 6 MONTHS TO PREPARE AND NO BACK UP. FINALLY I WAS TOLD THE ADAPTER PORT WAS BROKEN AND THE COMPUTER BOARD BURNT OUT AND TO GIVE THEM 950.00 TO FIX A COMPUTER I DID NOT DROP, TAMPER WITH OR BREAK. i USED THE POWER CORD THEY GAVE ME AND CANNOT UNDERSTAND HOW THEY CAN CHARGE ME FOR A COMPUTER THAT IS NEW-WITHOUT A SCRATCH AND UNDER THE WARRANTY THEY SOLD ME. WHY DID I BUY A WARRRANTY?. SHAME ON IBM AND LENOVO. 950.00 . SHAME ON YOU OVER AND OVER.
    I SPOKE TO EVERY DEPARTMENT AND THEY KNOW NOTHING EXCEPT HOW TO TRANSFER ME FROM ONE DEPARTMENT TO ANOTHER DEPT. ONE  MAN TOLD ME THE COMPUTER IS UNDER WARRANTY AND HE WOULD HAVE IT FIXED AND THEN TRANSFERED ME TO A MANAGER TO REVIEW ALL HE CONFIRMED. . AGAIN I WAS SENT TO TECH SUPPORT AND THEN SALES AND THEN WARRANTY AND BACK AGAIN. THERE IS NO MANAGER, JUST PEOPLE THAT PASS THE BUCK AROUND WITHOUT RESPONSIBILITY. i WROTE EACH PERSONS NAME DOWN -AND THE LIST IS LONG. i DID SPEAK TO THE WARRANTY DEPT AND I WAS TOLD I COULD NOT GET THE RIGHT WARRANTY AS THE MACHINE IS MORE THAN 90 DAYS OLD AND NOW IN REPAIR. . LENOVO KNOWS ONE THING- CHARGE THE CUSTOMER AND THEY DO NOT CARE ABOUT WHAT THEY DID WRONG OR THAT THE MACHOINE I RECIEVED WAS FAUTLY. I AM TO BLAME AND HELD HOSTAGE FOR 950.00. I FINALLY SPOKE TO A WOMAN WHO SAID SHE WOULD SEND MY CASE TO  A MANAGER  TO ESCALTE. SHE WAS CONDESCENDING AND HORRIBLE. I EXPLAINED THE PROBLEM AND TIMING AND SHE IS SORRY AND SHE UNDERSTANDS- BUT I DO NOT THINK ANYONE UNDERSTANDS THE WORDS THEY ARE SPEWING. IF THEY UNDERSTOOD- WHY IS IT GOING TO TAKE 3-5 MORE DAYS TO GET THE CASE TO ESCALATE.I WILL LEAVE ON A TRIP WITHOUT MY WORK AND ONE OF THESE DAYS -SOMEONE TILL WAKE UP AND JUST START THE WHOLE PROCESS OVER AND ASK ME THE PROBLEM AND DEMAND THE 950.00.  WAKE UP IBM AND LENOVO AND KNOW I WILL DO ANYTHING I CAN TO DISCOURAGE MY COMPANIES AND ANYONE I AM ASSOCIATED WITH TO NOT CONSIDER IBM PRODUCTS.YOUR CUSTOMER CARE IS HORRIBLE. YOUR SYSTEMS AND TRAINING OF PERSONAL IS TERRIBLE. i WANT MY COMPUTER BACK, FIXED AND NO CHARGE AND ACCEPTED AS IT WAS UNDER THE WARRANTY I BOUGHT. iF THERE IS AN EXTRA PRO THNKPAD WARRANTY I NEED TO BUY- I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO DO SO. i AM POSTING THIS BLOG ON ALL MY COMPANIES WEBSITES INCLUDING FACEBOOK, TWITTER ,LINKED IN -GLOBALLY. PERHAPS I WILL DO SOME GOOD IN WARNING ANYONE THAT WAS THINKING OF IBM PRODUCTS TO NOT BUY THEM 

    Dave,
    Sorry to hear about your troubles - I can only imagine your frustration and the time crunch.
    The best approach is to ask that your case be escalated to customer relations - this will usually take 24-48 hours and it sounds like that may be already in the works.   Customer relations should be able to work with service and depending on the circumstances have the system repaired under your exisiting standard warranty terms.
    A standard or extended warranty should be enough in most instances - the accidental damage upgrade is really to cover drops, spills, physically broken parts - cracked LCDs, hinges, etc.   These types of damages are often rulled as "customer induced" and not covered under normal warranty which results in a billable ammount quoted for the repair.
    Service applies their best judgement on these, but we recognize that circumstances can vary and so there is an escalation and review process to make sure we can intercede and help customers as appropriate given the particulars of the case.
    Best regards,
    Mark

  • EE - Worst customer service ever

    Ever since I've joined EE i've struggled with network connectivity both for calls and data. Numerous occasions i've contacted EE Customer Services to try and fix my issues and still they exists. The latest installment of frustration from EE came last week when I spent 90 minutes on the phone being passed around from department to department. Everyone who I have spoken to has been unable to help.  80% of my working day my phone is unable to make calls! Its got to the point where I am now paying for a service that I can not use. Over 15 days ago I logged a complaint with EE via the web service. I received an automated acknowledment that stated I should receive a response from someone in complaints. To this day I have not!  I was also promised a call back from an escallation manager on the 27th October 2014 and we are now onto the next day and still no response.  The customer service and communication that goes on at EE is appauling. I work for a company that is big on customer service and if I lacked in communication what EE employees do I would be out of a job. EE adverts are very mis leading, super lighting speeds and good coverage is really not the case. Im at the point now where I feel I am within my rights to cancel my contract because EE are not providing me with the service that they are contracted to.  I've requested that this should be done without me paying an early settlement charge. However EE are not willing to do this. They would prefer to keep me unhappy. I would be grateful for any information on my rights to cancell the contract, compensation etc etc? ThanksCraig

    EE stands for exsasperating experience!!!!!!!!I broke my phone a week ago and all i need from EE is my proof of purchase, I was told wenesday they would post it to me as the cant email it? Why ?Two days later still no proof, so went into watford EE shop to see if they can print it off.Oh no we cant do that because you bought the phone online.Phoned EE again and was told they can email it out , but only to the Watford EE shop.back i went watford EE were they seemed most surprised that this could be done. They gave me the email i then had to call EE on my mobile ( evidently the shop cant phone customer services?) they sent proof of purcahe . shop printed it out , happy boy.got home nad all they have printed is the email and not the attachments ie proof of purchase whih is what i need!!called EE to explain and i have to go back to shop. Why cant they just email it to me the customer. it is my contract!!SSo one week and still no phone Well done EE as soon as my contract expires im off to vodaphone.

  • Worst Customer Service In the World

    Why am I still getting billed by comcast after several months of my service being cancelled, when I was already informed multiple times that the account is up to date? Why am I constantly being bothered about equipment that I have already return, and been informed by comcast that the equipment has been return? Why am I being charge for the equipment discussed in the previous statment? Why is it that a company as large a Comcast has the worlds worst customer service and does nothing about it?

  • DSL Not Working for 7 Days and Tickets Closed without Resolution - Worst Customer Service

    My DSL light has been blinking for 7 days.  A technician came out Monday and checked inside my house and outside.  He said the problem is outside, that there is an issue with the wires on the street.  He said that the "Home Office" needs to internally switch the wires.  The technician went to the "Home Office" which is right down the street but the technician was not at her desk so he put in a request for the wire to be switched.  In the meantime, he manually switched the wires to get the internet working but said the internet would go down for 5-10 minutes when the "Home Office" did the official switch.  When I got home from work, my internet was not working and my DSL light was blinking again.  I immediately called Verizon and was told that my ticket had been closed and that a technician would need to come out again.  Since the technician had already been in my house that morning and confirmed the issue was with the wires on the street and not my house, I told them no one would be home because I could not take another day off from work.  It was understood that the technician could reach me by cell phone if he needed to talk to me but he was coming to look at the wires on the street.  A visit was scheduled for the next day, Tuesday.  I received a voice mail from the technician that he would be at my house in 20 minutes and would call me when he arrived.  I never heard back from him and when I got home, my internet was still down.  I immediately called Verizon to check on the status of the ticket.  At first, the agent couldn't even locate my ticket but then informed me it was closed.  I questioned the closure of the ticket since the problem had not been resolved.  I then proceeded to be on hold for an HOUR while the agent tried to find out why the ticket had been closed.  After an hour, the response was he didn't know and that I would have to open another ticket for an agent to come out AGAIN.  The agent then insisted I needed to be home because the technician needed to check inside the house despite being told by me that the technician had already been in my house the day before and confirmed the problem was on the street.  The agent then told me I needed to be home so the technician could update me.  I told the agent the technician could call me on my cell phone since he clearly has the phone number since he called me on Monday AND Tuesday.  The agent agreed and I gave my cell phone number again for the technician to call me.  There are no appointments available until Thursday which will be 8 days since the internet went down.  At this point, after 3 tickets opened, two that were closed without the problem being solved and two site visits with a third scheduled and 60 minutes on the phone,I am doubtful the issue will be resolved Thursday.  I've reached the point where if the problem isn't fixed on Thursday, I am canceling my service with Verizon after six years.  I shouldn't be paying for service that Verizon can't even provide because their own technician can't fix an issue with the wires outside my house.
    This experience has been frustrating and the worst customer service I've ever experienced. 

    Your issue has been escalated to a Verizon agent. Please go to your profile page for the forum, and look in the middle, right at the top where you will find an area titled "My Support Cases".  You can reach your profile page by clicking on your name beside your post, or at the top left of this page underneath the title of the board.
    Under “My Support Cases” you will find a link to the private board where you and the agent may exchange information.  This should be checked on a frequent basis  as the agent may be waiting for information from you before they can proceed with any actions. Please keep all correspondence regarding your issue in the private support portal.
    If a forum member gives an answer you like, give them the Kudos they deserve. If a member gives you the answer to your question, mark the answer that solved your issue as the accepted solution.

    Verizon Wireless has the absolute worst customer service I have ever received.  The in store reps are unprofessional and spend more time texting and taking personal cell phone calls than in helping customers.  They are not at all knowledgeable and even state they do not know what they are doing.  When you call customer service you get jerked around and passed from one person to the next with no one knowing how to fix my billing issue.  I have received NO call backs that were promised and the latest person I spoke to was incredibly rude.  Sanita from Sacramento refused to even give me her last name or the last name of her Manager Nick so that I could follow up.  I am incredibly disappointed at how poorly I have been treated.  I will make sure to tell everyone I know about this experience and as soon as my contract has expired I WILL be leaving Verizon services after 10 years with the company!!

  • Apple Customer Service and warranty exceptions

    Hello all,
    Whilst I love my Apple hardware and software, and have had many good experiences with them over the years, unfortunately I post today with a complaint about what I perceive to be poor customer service and product quality.
    In late March/early April of 2006, I purchased a 1.83GHz MacBook Pro with great anticipation- Intel inside, Tiger OS, inbuilt webcam, and general awesomeness all round. I also purchased the 3 year AppleCare warranty, which was to be a godsend as during the following three years I would experience:
    *The replacement of the battery under the original MacBook Pro battery exchange program
    *The left fan on the unit dying in 2007
    *The logic board itself dying in late Feb/Early March 2008, thus bricking my laptop
    *Another battery replacement as the replacement for the original died before it (realistically) should have (Apple very nicely made an exception to the battery's 1 year technical warranty and replaced it for me).
    Fair enough, it's a new unit and was bound to have some problems. Unfortunately, last week the logic board died AGAIN; a mere 18 months after it was replaced in 2008. The unit is out of AppleCare warranty by 5 months or so, but I was urged by forumites and friends to call Apple, who would surely make an exception for me and pay for the replacement part, given my service history with the laptop and Apple's reputation for excellent customer service.
    Unfortunately, this has proved to not be the case. Calling customer service at Apple Australia I talked to Steven, who was firm to the point of rudeness when he stated that my laptop was out of warranty and Apple would cover nothing but the labour charges involved, as a "guesture of good will". When stretched, he offered me a $125 voucher if I wanted to purchase anything over $400 in the Apple store, and stressed he didn't have to do this but the company was attempting to provide good service to its customer.
    Despite my argument that I forked out over $3000 for this laptop a mere three years ago and am now looking at over $1000 to repair something replaced only 18 months ago, his line was that Apple provided a warranty and that was simply that (apart from a month or two grace). Five months is apparently "far outside the warranty period".
    I received no challenge to my assertion that after buying something which cost over $3000, it was reasonable for Apple to expect a consumer to pay an extra $1000 every year after the warranty finishes to replace a broken logic board. In truth, I find this near incomprehensible, considering one can buy the supposedly inferior build quality of a Dell, HP, Toshiba, etc and see it last not just beyond the warranty but another two or three years before it finally suffers something terminal.
    While from a warranty perspective Apple are well and truly within their rights to refuse to pay for the part, at the end of the day I am left to pay $1000+ for a repair for something which may only last another 12 months, plus $3500+ for a new Macbook Pro with AppleCare if I want a replacement- minus of course the $125 they are offering.
    I did some reading of the ACCC's website about my statutory rights and the Trade Practices act, and I note the following with interest:
    *Statutory conditions (goods)*
    The Trade Practices Act implies the following statutory conditions into consumer contracts:
    * The goods must be of merchantable quality. That is, they must meet a basic level of quality and performance, taking into account their price and description. They also should be free from defects that were not obvious to you at the time of purchase.
    * The goods must be fit for their purpose. That is, they should do what they are supposed to do and be suitable for any purpose that you might have made known to the supplier.
    * The goods must match the description you were given or the sample you chose from. For example, any carpet laid must be the same quality and colour as the sample you chose from.
    * You must receive clear title to the goods, including goods bought at auction. In other words, you can expect to own the goods outright and any restriction on ownership should be explained to you beforehand.
    While I don't particularly want to make a big deal of things, I hardly see $3000+ for three years use and $1000 each year thereafter to be merchantible quality or fit-for-purpose! This is supposed to be a high end laptop with excellent build quality, and yet I've a secondhand iBook that has been chugging for longer without issue than this machine!
    I told Steven from Customer Service that his offer didn't satisfy me in the slightest, and still put me in an awkward position with regards to repair and repurchase. He simply wouldn't budge, and refused to see things from my point of view (which another operator, Anu, was able to do and thus produce a much better response from myself). I have since asked to speak to his manager which- after initial resistance- I have been able to secure a future callback from. I have no idea how well discussions with he/she will go.
    What I'd like to hear from you guys and girls is your experience with similar situations, and whether you think I've a leg to stand on with regards my replacement request or the ACCC stuff above. Again, I love my Apple products but I hardly think asking them to replace the part while I pay for labour is a big ask, given the service history and my desire to continue buying and using their products.
    Love to hear your points of view on this one; thanks for taking the time to read it!
    Cheers,
    Dave.

    Dear meacod
    I have live the same, except that I Cure my MBP before it goes to die.
    A lot of older participants here just talk about Aplle care, which seem the automatic thing in front of a lack of real good quality on Apple products .
    But I think we pay the price, and my second hand MBP was much more expensive than a brand new PC with more ram, more Hard disk, and even a blue ray...
    I don't know your mbp history, but that's sure that we are not equal, in world, with Apple customer support. France is not so great, I don't know for your country.
    The only thing I think is that Apple should take care of us, as we have some unacceptable issues, for An Apple Product...
    Since 1996, when Apple was almost dead, saved by Bill Gates investment !!! , I have every year promote it, and it was not easy, but I have bring to Apple between 3 to 10 customers each year..
    since One year, I have stop that, because I don't believe anymore in Apple product's superiority .
    Oh, yes, on the paper, it's better, the system is really good. But the overall experiment can be so bad that I don't want to loose friends, or customers...
    I don't say it's always bad : I just say that it CAN BE SO BAD and that Apple DON'T take care of that...
    so, for your computer, open it, check it a lot, may be it's too late, but for instance, you talked about a fan, I have solved that case just by putting oil on the fan's axe...
    good luck

  • Could this be the worst customer service ever???

    Hi - not used the forum before, but have had the most unbelievable time trying to deal with BT.  The simplest way to illustrate how abysmally terrible they have been is to paste below the letter of complaint (and the follow up 2 weeks later) that I have sent to BT.  It is long, but shocking reading, and compelling if you have ever had experience of what BT ironically calls "Curstomer Service".  No response yet, apart from a lame reply a few weeks later saying that they agree that the service was terrible, but that they probably won't do anything about it.  As soon as the 8 weeks are up, I'm going to escalate this to http://www.ombudsman-services.org/
    Am I missing something here?  Am I expecting too much of BT?  Am I making a fuss over nothing?  Or does this resonante with anyone who has had dealings with them?
    ORIGINAL LETTER (5th NOVEMBER):
    Dear British Telecom
    I am afraid that I need to make a formal complaint about my treatment at the hands of BT over the past 6 weeks.
    I received a MAC code from BT at the start of September which I tried to use to switch to another supplier.  The supplier told me that when I had signed up to BT Infinity with you last year, this had made the line incompatible for the ADSL service that I was now requesting and the line needed to be downgraded.  I originally called BT on 13th September to request that this be done, and spoke to a woman called Jackie.  She agreed that it was remiss of BT not to have explained the implications of the switch to BT Infinity when I was offered the deal, and so agreed to arrange a manual downgrade of the line to avoid triggering a contract renewal.  She told me that the work would be complete by 23rd September and that I would receive confirmation from BT that the work was to take place within 2 business days.  No confirmation came through.  I called again the following week and had 2 lengthy conversations, with one person telling me that no work was in progress, and another telling me that yes it was in progress.  However, on 24th, the work had still not been done.
    I called again on the morning of 24th for a very lengthy conversation (well over an hour), when after a lot of resistance, the person eventually explained that they didn’t know why the work had not been carried out, but it would definitely be carried out the next day.  I asked her to assure me that if this was not done, then I would not be liable for any charges as a result of BT’s repeated failure to perform this work.  She agreed to this.
    I went on holiday the following day, and by the time I returned on 10th October, my other supplier, had still not managed to use the MAC code to switch to them, and it had now expired.  It had been repeatedly rejected because there was an open order on the line.
    I called again on 10th, and was told that they didn’t know why the work had not been completed, but it would be done by 14th.  I was told I would have one month of broadband payments refunded, and that I would not need to make any further payments to BT, as it was BT’s fault that the work had not been done and I was still with you.  I requested confirmation of this twice, to be sure that I had not misunderstood, and it was given twice in very clear terms.
    Of course, the 14th came, and the supplier I wanted to switch to was still being told that there was an open order on my account.  I called again on 14th, and this time was told that the work actually took place on 26th September, but that there was still an open order on my account.  None of the many people I was passed to over the next couple of weeks was able to tell me what the order was for – one person said it was just an administrative item that needed to be closed.  I spoke to many people who claimed that it was closed.  Eventually someone agreed to do a little research and found some background processes running, which were eventually closed after several more difficult calls.
    These calls were without exception long and difficult.  I was often promised calls back with explanations, but not one ever came.  I was often told that I needed to be put through to another department and that the person I was speaking to had spoken with them and they would be able to help me quickly and easily and were awaiting that I be transferred, but I was put through to a long phone queue and then spoke to someone who didn’t know anything about my case and was not able to help anyway.  I had to repeatedly explain the situation from scratch to somebody new, despite being assured that this would not be necessary.  In short, I spend very many hours that I really could not afford on the phone to BT to sort this out. 
    This was dereliction of customer service and a breach of your duty of care on a significant scale (in addition to the failure to supply the service downgrade promised, and then the failure to communicate that it had been supplied until I called many times more).  The calls caused me significant frustration and distress, and affected my mood for a long time after.  The hours I had to spend on the phone in a vain attempt to make myself understood by your people caused me to miss deadlines at work, to appear sloppy, and to present myself in a less professional way than usual due to the vexation caused by all of this.  I could never have imagined that getting a simple request fulfilled could require such a significant expenditure of time, effort and internal strength.
    My complaint is not that there was an initial error with the work, but that this error was not explained, investigated or put right despite extremely lengthy efforts by myself to communicate with BT what needed to be done.  I was treated with disrespect many times, as people told me they were putting me through to specific people they had spoken to, but then just put me through to a long phone queue; people promised me confirmation texts/emails and update calls which never came; different people gave completely conflicting stories about what was going on with my account; people repeatedly assured me that everything was fine and the other supplier would now be able to place the order, and the other supplier was not able to place the order.  These were not one-off events – each of these situations happened several times.  I can only describe your customer service as consistently abysmal.
    Finally, last week, the supplier I want to switch to was able to place the order and arrange for the takeover of my line and broadband which will take place next week.
    Sadly, though, that is not the end of my problems with BT.  In the early hours of this morning, I received 3 emails asking me to view and pay my new bill.  This came to over £140 (up to now I have been paying £17 per month), and included an incomprehensible set of charges for “Line Rental”, “Broadband and Calls” (which included BT Infinity Option 2, which I do not have),  as well as separate listings for “BT Broadband Option 3”, which I also do not have.  There are no words to describe the shock and disbelief I felt upon opening this.
    Throughout the whole process, I have been very clear and explained multiple times that my purpose has been to be able to switch to another supplier, and that despite being offered new contracts and new deals many times, this was not what I wanted.  I only wanted to be able to switch as soon as possible, and so wanted no renewal of any contract.  I was assured several times that this is what would be achieved.  The comments on my latest bill refer to a “contract start date”, and so if there is any new contract in place, this has not only been done without my consent, but in contravention of my repeatedly expressed wishes.  Whether the explanation for this is gross incompetence or corruption, it is not acceptable, and must be cancelled immediately.
    I called again today, but again found myself talking to apologetic people who couldn’t help who passed me on to long phone queues which led to more apologetic people who couldn’t help.
    Given that this has been going on for so long and given that the many promises made to me by BT have been repeatedly broken and given that I had been clearly and explicitly assured that I would not have to make any further payments to BT, as my switch was in progress and only BT was obstructing it from taking place; I am no longer prepared to subject myself to this treatment.  Rather than paying you this money and giving you more of my time, I would expect significant compensation from you for the many many hours I have put in to trying to address the consequences of BT’s failures and for the resultant stress, that has affected other areas of my life and which continues to do so.
    Please respond to this letter within 14 days, confirming that you will be cancelling the latest bill and any contract that you may have put in place, and advising me what level of financial compensation you feel would adequately compensate me for what I have been put through by BT.  Naturally, you will not be proposing any credit to my account, as I will hopefully no longer be a BT customer in a few days’ time, and the balance on the account should actually be zero. 
    I look forward to your prompt response.
    Yours sincerely

    Dear British Telecom
    I submitted the letter below via the complaints section of your website on 5th November, asking for a response within 14 days.  The automated response said that you would normally respond to complaints within 48 hours, but at very busy periods this may take up to 96 hours.  However, 2 weeks has now passed and I have received no response from BT.
    I tried calling BT again on 12th November, after receiving a new bill demand.  On the automated system, I asked to speak about my bill.  The automated voice said “about your bill.  Is that right?”, I said yes, but it put me through to the BT Options team, who were not able to help and eventually transferred me to the billing team.  I spoke to one lady and to her manager, and was told that she would investigate the huge and confusing charges on my bill, and the promise that had been made to me that I would not incur ANY further charges, and that she would get back to me on my mobile number within 48 hours, and that if she could not reach me, she would call back until she did.  I asked whether this meant that my bill would be on hold until she spoke to me again, and she clearly confirmed this.  Of course, no call ever came, so my bill is actually still on hold now, according to she clearly told me.
    Then, in the early hours of 18th November, I received 2 emails: one telling me that another provider had requested to take over my broadband service and that service would stop from midday on that day (even though it had actually been transferred to another provider more than a week earlier), and another thanking me for taking out a new 12 month phone contract starting on 18th November.  Of course, I never discussed any new contract from BT, apart from stating very clearly on several occasions during my many calls with you that I specifically didn’t want to enter into any new contracts.
    I called again on 18th to speak to the complaints department.  I spoke to Angela, who told me that the complaint that I had made on the phone on the 12th, and the complaint that I sent via your site 2 weeks ago, and which I copy below, had both been ‘escalated’ to a woman in India called Sharon, who was supposed to have called me back by 14th.  Angela said she would look into this, get hold of the complaint I had sent and read it carefully, and would look to cancel my bill and offer me compensation.  As has been a common occurrence in my dealings with BT, she apologised for the way things had been handled so far and assured me that she would now take ownership of my case and would definitely call me back at 2.30pm with an update, even if the situation was not fully resolved at that point.  She even re-confirmed my mobile number, but of course, no call ever came.
    And, incredibly, this morning, I received another email from BT, telling me that as I hadn’t paid my bill yet, a late-payment charge had been added to it, and threatening me with a downgrade of my credit status.
    Again, I feel compelled to emphasise the great frustration and stress that this situation is causing me.  This is utter neglect of your duty of customer care, and there is nobody in your confusing maze of customer support phone services who has been able to understand and address any of my issues I have had over this extremely difficult 2 months.  Several people have promised that they would take ownership of my case, and would stay in contact with me, but none of them ever has.  There seems to be no way to meaningfully communicate with anybody at your end, even while the bills, and charges, and threats and confusing emails are coming thick and fast.  This is now proving to be equally true of your complaints procedure –  my complaint has been completely ignored.
    As I requested in my previous letter (below), please cancel my bill immediately and propose what level of financial compensation you feel would reasonably compensate me for the extreme frustration and stress that I have been subjected to in recent months, which has affected other areas of my life, including my work and family life, and the time and trouble I have taken to try to reach you to get this sorted out. 
    I include a copy of my original letter below, and am sending this to you both by email and in the post.  I would like a positive response within 10 calendar days of the date of this letter, addressing all of the issues I am raising.  Beyond this 10 day period, I may take further action, which may include legal action and/or publicity about this case.
    Yours sincerely

    Update - in case anyone is still interested -  Here is my response to them:
    30th December 2013 – Our Response
    Thank you for your proposal, which we do not find acceptable.  
    Not only does it ignore the promise that we were made by telephone in October that we would not receive any more bills from BT, as the fact that we were still with you had already been down to your negligence for some time, but it also ignores the abysmal service that you have given us and the resultant stress and personal inconvenience that you have directly caused.  An apology and a weak offer to refund the difference between what we pay now and what we paid you is very very far from even beginning to make up for this.  Your wilfully ignoring a promise that you had made in October and that we very clearly drew your attention to in our original letter is yet another example of this, as are your over-complicated "final" bills, which are not easy to make any sense of.
    You say that you will feed back to the agents involved about the terrible service that they have given.  This will make no difference.  If only one or two agents had been involved in delivering a terrible customer experience, then maybe this may have helped, but the fact that your service has been so consistently and unswervingly catastrophic in every single interaction (and you will be aware that there are very many posts on forums all over the Internet singling out BT for similarly incalculably bad service) suggests that the problem is in your processes, your training and your staggering lack of customer service ethic.  If you truly wish to make changes, your actions will need to be far more fundamental than simply scape-goating a few individuals who are doing nothing different from anyone else you employ.  I do not hold any individual or individuals responsible for what BT has done, but BT as a whole.
    I intend to refer this case to Ombudsman Services: Communications, but would welcome a response from you before 2nd January if you have anything further to add.
    Best Wishes
    Guy

  • Switching to Comcast: Verizon has given me the WORST customer service over the past 7 days.

    I've been a loyal Verizon customer for more than 2 years. Last week, I called to transfer my service to a new address. The phone call went well, and I was promised that a technician would come the next day. After ending the call, I found out that was a lie. It would actually be 7 days later. I called back to change the date, and was told that a new order would be submitted, but since it was a Friday evening, someone would call me on Monday to confirm an installation date/time. No call came. I called again today and was told that the customer service rep would call me back in 15 minutes. That was a lie. He did not. I finally got someone on the phone, and SURPRISE! I learned that there was NEVER an order for my new service. And, no technician would be available for 7 days.  This is deplorable and shameful customer service. Several lies, no follow-up when promised, and a seeming inability to get service installed for a long-time customer. 
    I went to Comcast's website and within 7 minutes, I was able to sign up for new service and schedule an appointment within 48 hours. Take a lesson, Verizon. 

    Hi,
    I recently moved also, and i received a confirmation for my order saying that I would have a technican to install on Saturday July 5th from 8 t0 9am. I called multiple times before July 5th to see if there was any available slot for a sooner instalatlion, but unfortunately nothing. The multiple representatives I spoke to said that my order was confirmed, and a technician will be there on July 5th. Surprisingly, I received no call from anyone saying the installer would not be able to make it, or about the appointment being postponed. I went into work late, and still did not have Verizon triple play installed. I spoke to customer care, and was told after waiting about 45 minutes that the representative will call me back, since she could not reach to the technician.
    Later that day my sister spoke to a representative, while I was at work, to see what the resolution was to the previous call. The representative she spoke to stated there was no technician assigned, and the dispatch center was not responding. So she will put a note on the account, for service to be installed on July 6th. The window was from 8am to 10am. I have still not had a technician come to my house and it is July 6th 11:40. I called to follow up on the appointment, but I was informed that the appointment is now scheduled for Monday July 7th from 8 am to 12pm. I did not authorize any changes to this appointment, and defiantely did not get any call or email stating there will be some changes. The representative informed me that a manager named Felipe authorized the technician to not show up for the appointment today, and just go tomorrow. This was not even told me to me, so i can make adjustments to my daily schedule. Does Verizon expect people to be available when their technicians are available to work? There is no professionalism going on here. Timeliness and accurate information is not something Verizon understands clearly. 
    I would like a reason as to why this is happening, and when I will be a satisfied customer? I have had no complaints with Verizon prior to this, and NEVER received such horrible customer service. This is totally unacceptable. Verizon has horrible customer service, and I will no be recommending anyone to get Verizon Fios. My sister has 4 lines with Verizon, that she will be cancelling due to this horrible experience, and my family members that recommended Verizon to me will all be leaving if there is no resolution to this. This is highly unacceptable. 

  • Customer service and computer have gone from bad to totally unbelievable

    I have a friend who was not computer savvy and asked for my help in purchasing a computer before going on vacation. I have been a best buy customer for a very long time,I would say my house was a best buy house.After the experience that she has endured and continues to deal with,I'm sorry that I took her to best buy.I private messaged Karina on the 12th so as not to make a fuss if I could get help privately but did not receive a response.The saga of customer service and her non-functioning computer from two stores in town has gone from bad to totally unbelievable.I used to work customer service and if I had treated my customers in the manner she has received I would have been looking for a job.She was accused of stealing money or the computer she paid for, she has been lied to, delayed from her vacation, had her extended warranty cancelled,numerous other things and is still dealing with a computer that is not functioning properly. I'm trying to help her and this has become harder and harder to do.I would appreciate some help as we have asked to speak to a district manager and that seems to be an impossibility.

    Hi deafdragon,
    It sounds like your friend is going through a complete and utter nightmare of a situation, so it’s very nice of you to be reaching out to us on her behalf. Trying to receive service on a broken computer should never be this difficult, and it’s especially concerning to hear of the serious allegations we’ve reportedly made against her while requesting assistance. As I’d hate for this to cause you both further aggravation, I’d really appreciate the opportunity to see how I may help.
    Due to our Privacy Policy though, I’m unable to discuss the details of your friend’s case with you.  Please have your friend create a forum account using her email address we may have on file with her Best Buy account. From there, please tell her to send me a private message with her full name, contact information, and any information she wishes me to know so that I may see what options we may have available for her.
    Respectfully,

  • Verizon Customer Service and Samsung Galaxy S III

    A little over 3 weeks ago I purchased a Samsung Galaxy III phone from Verizon.
    The exact store is:
    224 North Weber Road,
    Bolingbrook, IL 60440
    (630) 226-4660
    When I purchased the phone the person who sold me the phone told me that I had 30 days, If I was not completely satisfied with the phone I could return it and get my money back.  However, he assured me that I would LOVE my new phone.
    I had just come off using a Blackberry for 4 years with no problems AT ALL!  I loved that phone, but I thought it would be nice to get up to the 21st century phone standards and get a touch screen phone.  Well, I went for the best…… or so I thought.
    As soon as I got my new phone in the car, I started using the speaker phone hands free.  The speakerphone began to cut in and out and the person, my husband whom I most speak with could not understand what I was saying.  I used the speakerphone on my Blackberry without issue.  I did not think much of it because I was so happy to have my new phone.  I thought maybe I was just in a bad area etc… Well the issue persisted also when I called my bank, my husband’s mother, my mother and it did not matter where I was the speaker phone did not work properly.  Then my phone started to drop calls.  Again, I thought it may have been the area, but it started happening a lot.  So now I was really beginning to wonder.  Having though I was still under the 30 DAY warranty, I gave it a few more days.  I began having to take out the battery to reset the unit because apps where disappearing and when I went to re-install them the unit indicated that app was already on my phone and wanted to know if I would like to uninstall the app.  I had to once again take out the battery and have the unit restart.  Well, I could not take it anymore.  With all of the things going wrong only a couple of weeks after purchase, I had to go into the store and see what they could do for me.  I went in and explained my situation to the manger who was greeting people at the door, I think her name was Katie or something like that.  She put me in line on her IPad just like everyone else for someone to assist me.  I was assigned to a very pleasant associate who took the battery out of my phone and said try this to see if this works for you.  I, not knowing very much about the technology said ok and walked out of the store.  Well it kept on getting worse.  I went back to the store on Sunday, September 30th 2012 asking for my money back or a new replacement for the phone.   They would not assist me. I started with a regular associate and went up the chain finally getting Katie (the store manager) who repeated everything that everyone else said.  So, obviously, she has no managerial skills at all.   She stated that they would have to totally reset my phone to see if some apps where conflicting etc.  Isn’t that what you purchase a Smartphone for??? To put apps on it and calendars etc.  I just downloaded a calendar and Xfinity because that is what I have my e-mail on.  I don’t’ think that was the issue, but you could not tell Katie anything. 
    I wanted a new phone replacement or money back as I spent $300.00 dollars on this phone.  She would not have it.  She said we have to go through the proper trouble shooting because I was out of the 14 day return policy!!!!.   OMGsh 14 days????  I was told 30!  Had I known this, I would have gotten my money back the first time I took the phone in for the issues I was having.  At that time, I was still under the 14 day policy!  I proceeded to express my opinion to everyone in the store stating “Don’t buy a Samsung Galaxy III” They are pieces of **bleep**. Well, needless to say Katie did not like that and she set my phone down in front of me and said, if I am going to swear, she is not going to help me.  Ok, then I re-worded my statement to tell everyone in the store “Don’t buy a Samsung Galaxy III they are pieces of garbage”  I cleaned it up a little, but still got my point across.  I also told her that I would blog about it and send a letter to the corporate office of both Samsung and Verizon.  I don’t think that she believed me, but here I am taking my time for this stuff.  Time I don’t have much of, but I feel very strongly about this situation.  I was lied to and Katie had the nerve to tell me that if I get a replacement phone from them, it would be a refurbished unit even though I just purchased the unit 3 weeks earlier.  THAT is unacceptable by any standards!!! 
    Needless to say I left the store totally dissatisfied with Verizon’s customer service and the Samsung Galaxy III phone.  I have not put any unusual apps on my phone nor have I downloaded a new calendar to my phone and I am still having the same issues with dropped calls and bad speaker phone.  I will not put any time into this phone for them to tell me they need to reset the whole darn thing again!  I am not going to bother going back to that Verizon store, because I know that they will not lift a finger to do anything about it.
    My husband wants an IPhone 5.  We will not be purchasing this from Verizon and I will probably eat the cancellation fee and go through AT&T so that my husband can get his IPhone.  I will never purchase another thing from Verizon, this is not the first time that that they have let me down.
    I hope that this letter, blog, facebook, YouTube note will open some eyes with regard to Verizon customer service and the Samsung Galaxy III phone.  I don’t know if it will, but with social media as it is, I hope it DOES!
    Thanks for nothing Verizon!!!
    Sincerely

  • Terrible customer service, and no help with defective camera

    Madams and Sirs,
    This camera (see below) was a Christmas present, and we discovered first last week that it had a manufacturing defect. (one of the small tabs holding the case half together got installed in a pinched way.)
    Best Buy has always had fantastic customer service, and we have been very happy. We have spend many thousand dollars in your store every year. So we were sure the store would have a solution.
    We took it in to your store #1423 on Curtner in San Jose to try to exchange or replace under warranty.
    I understand you sometimes you are not able to help a customer, but this email is first about the shock I got when I spoke with Megan in customer service.
    As many customers in Silicon Valley, I am an engineering manager, and we have performed destructive testing on many of our own products. The defect on this camera is obviously a manufacturing defect, and not possible to be caused by poor handling. This is very obvious.
    Megan told me with other employees as well as my son listening next to me that I was a liar, and that the damage was caused by abuse, and not a defect. I tried to explain that was not possible, and she interrupted me, and again said that i was not telling the truth, and that the assembly error was caused by us. 
    I then asked if it was possible to have the matter reviewed by the store manager, and she responded she was the store manager. 
    I left with the camera, and the matter unresolved, and had to explain to my son that I was not a liar, and that Megan must be wrong and "some people just have a bad day sometimes".
    I will not be spoken to with insults like that, and I can no longer go to your store with my kids, and if my employees treated any customer the way Megan did, I would make sure she received training to correct this. If the store manager have this attitude to customers, the entire organisation usually follows, and I will not be a customer in a store like that.
    1. Please help resolve this issue.Order number: {removed per forum guidelines}

    Hello erikev,
    Cameras are nice to have, especially with young children, so I can imagine how frustrating it can be to find yourself with a pinched casing. When something goes wrong, it’s never a fun situation, and while it may not be something we can necessarily help with, great customer service should still be provided. It sounds like this didn’t happen the way we hoped, and I’m sorry this was at your expense.
    As this situation is definitely concerning, I looked into your account to see how I might be able to assist. However, I have found your concerns have reached Terrance with our executive support team. He is currently looking into your situation and should contact you once more information is available. From here, Terrance will be your first point of contact.
    Hopefully he can find a good resolution for you,

  • Bt you need to get your customer service and billi...

    HI all just to let you know I have been with bt ( all 3 packages vision, broadband option 3 and telephone + the £5 each month free calls )
    Until they tried to put all of the bills together all was fine I got all bills and went online to pay instant with card and or part direct debit for 2 of the 3 accounts. ) all no problems.
    UNTIL!!!!!!
    the change over back in July 2010.
    After a 1.5 hours repetitive conversation with customer service ( and yes they where english speaking ) we are astill no where.
    they now say that my bt broadband has a different account and has been sent to my landlord ( as he had to call them 3 yrs ago to get a line put in to my rent place)
    any way the only problem is my broadband bill. I have not received any bill paper or email from July 2010 at ALL!!
    I still get the bills for vision and telephone all in my name and gets paid direct debit I have no problems with those 2 its the broadband bill
    Only to find last night my landlord came round irate that bt had cut him off because my broadband bill was not paid and he said its not his its mine ( this was lets say a slight confrontation with me and landlord) BT muck up again !!!!
    Next I call today to speak to Customer service only for them to keep repeating that there is nothing they can do its in the landlords name.
    I say I'm not bothered I just want to know why I was getting all bills and paying for them ON TIME until July 2010.
    They then say they need to change the account holder to my name and I say but your sending me online email bill and paper billing for my vision and telephone why have you stopped the broad band.
    Any way sorry for long story but I am seriously thinking of enough is enough now what with the first 18 months broad band connection problems ( exchange end had to re port 3 times their end) and 4 engineers. to get it sorted to now when BT change all account into one for this to happen.
    LISTEN BT  ITs now become a personal confrontational matter ( my landlord coming round)
    ITS your problem your end GET it sorted.
    If my only advice to anyone with BT
    1GET account in your name same address if possible.
    2. make sure BT know your mobile, and email addresses. double check each year when you renew contracts
    3. WRITE EVERYTHING DOWN , name, time date who spoke to.
    HERE COMES BIG COMPLAINTS LOOK OUT BT
    also sent email to adam lee yesterday about this whole thing. Adam lee was who my landlord spoke to about the whole thing and so I think he deducted the wrong billing of my broadband to his account.
    his email is  ******* for any one else.
    UPDATE:
    when I check my online statements it shows all 3 accounts yet BT customer service say my broadband account has been disconnected??  DUHHHH im using it now !!
    and funny thing is  how can you pay a bill if the broadband says your bill is uptodate your next bill is due 16th October 2010 ( YES 2010 ..LOL)

    Hi Hamish72
    Thanks for comments
    I totally agree as I run my own facebook custom fanpage design and webhosting so I know how customers what to be treated Key 1 I learnt is always listen and repeat back their question. and 2 solve the problem. 3 revert back to no: 1
    UPDATE: just spoke to another customer service person called KAREN. Now this is not a name and shame in fact I have include her name as she sorted this all out in 30 mins totally understood and has 75% solved problem while on the phone. The other 25% is down to waiting to activation of a move over of the error of bt putting my broadband account under my landlords account ( different address ). Why the other CS couldn't do this I don't know.
    any way will let you all know how it goes.

  • Terrible customer service and relations

    In January of this year my wife and I switched back to Verizon from StraightTalk.  I purchased the Droid Turbo and she purchased the IPhone.  Shortly after getting our new phones, I made the dumb mistake of laying my phone on the back of my truck and drove down the road.  When I realized what I had done, it was too late.  My phone had already fallen off and had been smashed.  I had not purchased the insurance for the phone so I knew I was going to have to foot the bill since we were on the Edge plan.  After confirming this with VZW, I paid the $635.99 on February 10, 2015 at Z Wireless in Everett, PA to buy out my contract.  I was then told that I would have to wait for the billing cycle to roll around, which was only a couple of days,  to get a new Turbo on the Edge plan.  I went back to the store once the bill posted to get my Turbo.  They tried to scan the phone but their screen would not let the transaction go through.  They then contacted VZW to see why.  I was then told that I had to wait 30 days because of policy.  I then went back to the store on March 10, 2015 to get my Turbo as instructed by VZW customer service.  After arriving at the store, we had the same problems as before. The store was told by VZW that it had to be a full 30 days and that I could get my Turbo on March 11, 2015.  So on March 11, I went back to the store, as instructed by VZW customer service, to get my Turbo.  Once again, the transaction would not go through.  The store contacted VZW to see what the problem was this time.  I was then told that VZW had not posted my payment until February 16, 2015 and that the 30 days did not start until then.  I paid the $635.99 on February 10, 2015 and it came out of my bank account on February 12, 2015.  I then personally contacted VZW to voice my displeasure and to see if there was anything that could be done.  After talking with several customer service representatives, it was obvious that I was now going to have to wait until March 16 to get my Turbo.  So on March 16, 2015, I contacted VZW before I made another trip to the store to get my phone.  The VZW customer service representative assured me that I was able to get my phone today.  I then made another trip to the store to finally get my phone.  Wrong!  After once again trying to scan my phone, the store manager had another message come up on her screen.  She then contacted VZW once again to see what the problem was.  I was now told that it could take up to 60 days to get my Turbo because there is something wrong with the VZW computer network.  Even though I am now supposedly eligible for the Edge, I still cannot get it because of a problem with the VZW computer system. So, as of 11:43 am on March 19, 2015 I am still without the Turbo.  I cannot for the life of me see how and why it takes this long to get a cell phone. I understand policy and procedures, but it is a cell phone, not some national security issue.  In all my conversations with the customer service at VZW, about all I can get is the standard " yes I will help you get this resolved" and then the " I am sorry, there is nothing we can do but we appreciate you choosing VZW".  I so very much regret leaving StraightTalk and choosing VZW.  I am tired of calling customer service and nobody knows when I can get the Turbo except it was 30 days and now its 60 days. After our contract is up, I can promise VZW will never see another penny of my money.  I know one customer is not going to break your company but I am very highly UNSATISFIED with the entire VZW company.  If there is anything that you can do to expedite or resolve this process I would very much appreciate it.  I hope that this does not fall on deaf ears or just get deleted.  I look forward to your response

    Wow, I can certainly understand why you would be so frustrated lastchancewithvzw. We want our Edge program to be an easy process to customers and I apologize you have not experienced that recently. I would like to clarify the buy out process with our Edge program. The 60 day time frame to enter a new Edge agreement is correct. The Edge buyout amount is shown on the bill the same day. However, they payment is not applied to the account after one bill cycle to ensure there the payment is not reversed or disputed. I apologize about the confusion caused.   Thank You, MichelleS_VZW Follow us on Twitter @VZWSupport If my response answered your question please click the "Correct Answer" button under my response.
