About Me

My photo
For me it is All About Being of Service & Living the Life of the Give-Away....

Being Mindful of those who are unable to speak for themselves; our Non-Two Legged Relations and the Future Generations.

It's about walking on the Canka Luta Waste Behind the Cannunpa and the ceremonies.

It's about Mindfulness and Respect. It's about Honesty and owning up to my foibles.

F**K F**K F**K VERIZON!



Ok, no phone service for 24 hours, online reporting system is also down....

Maybe Tuesday, I'll have phone service..... I'm too busy this week to have stay home & wait for someone to call me.... 

I'm like, why can't the guy just fix the line? Why do I have to be home? Last time he disconnected my internet by mistake.

Also, we have a problem, I still have to go through the "voice mail" robot to get my call connected. It asks me about my pc & internet (But I'm calling about my telephone) and states that it knows I've been online trying to get telephone repair, but I'm given the Indian (as in INDIA) internet service people.....

I live in CA, NOT India..... I want to talk to people in the Ca office, but nooooo that's not Possible (they don't take calls).

Another thing is...... You make an appointment: Between 8:00 am - 5:00 pm. Do you get a time frame? The time frame is anywhere between 8:00 am - 5:00 pm, so yes, I have to be home ALL Fking day...... and I have to be over 18 to have the guy come fix the box!

Can the nice lady in India do anything to help me? Nope!

"Ok, ma'am, we'll "Text" you before they come...."
"Oh no you won't, I don't "Txt"....."
"Ok, we'll call you....."
"Fine, call me, but my phone doesn't work, you might want to call my cell....."
"What is that number, ma'am?"
"I don't know I never call it! and I have to hang up, to look it up!"
"Oh well ma'am is your cell 123-345-5678?"
"Well yes it is! How can you know that?"

SHIT! SHIT! SHIT! SHIT!

Freaking Verizon.....

But I'll tell you what I just now figured out.....

Besides the main reason (slave wages & Bigger Corporate Profits) for having your "customer service" call centers in India & not CA is;

If I was on the line w/ me, who is always having connection & service problems and tend towards frustration & crankiness or someone infinitely crazier..... I'd Hang-up and let the person call back, and the people in India are too polite to do that.

Sad thing is that the people in India, are very nice people...... and it is not their fault they work for a crappy company whose bottom line is neither customer or utility services.

I Don't Fking Believe This......

Verizon Robot just called me & cancelled my service call, because I didn't choose the Right Button to Press..... Because it WAS A FKING ROBOT that does not explain options!

Now I'm online "chat"

A Verizon Service Representative will be with you shortly. Thank you.

(14:45:17): Your customer service is crappy

(14:45:23): It is not the people

(14:45:40): it is how many people I have to speak to in order to get help for my problem

(14:46:12): it is the voice mail Robot that wastes time from the beginning of the call.. wanting useless information

Manoah(14:46:18)My sincere apologies for the inconvenience caused. However, I assure you that I do my best to resolve the issue.

(14:46:19): programmed to make guesses

(14:46:37): and then calling me back and canceling the service request....

Manoah(14:46:58)Sure! Please give me a minute..

(14:47:08): I have to wait until Tuesday now, for a tech to come here


Manoah(14:48:33)I see that our collegue have called you and put you on conference with our Telephone Expert Team. Am I correct ?

(14:48:47): "Expert" LOL!

(14:48:49): yes

Manoah(14:49:40)Did you speak with our Telephone Team ?

(14:49:45): yes

(14:50:00): and as I say, there has been a rescheduled appointment

Manoah(14:51:21)Please be assured, our telephone team will fix the issue for you.

Manoah(14:52:22)Is there anything else that I can assist you with?

(14:53:18): nothing just please let Verizon know their system is arcane and basically useless

(14:53:29): they need to streamline & be more efficient

(14:53:51): AND they need LOCAL Customer Service, not in India, TX, FL

(14:53:54): or anywhere else

Manoah(14:55:05)I will right away update this feedback..

(14:55:24): Thank-you have a nice day, I am disconnecting




Now, I have India calling me...  
They will get me someone else to schedule the repair service?
    
F**k F**k F**k Verizon
 
On HOLD AGAIN?

I have spent over 2 hours with these people.....
As I said, it is not the people, it is the Corporation and how they set things up!

F**k F**k F**k Verizon
