  • Good morning!!!

    This is how my morning went. I was on the floor submitting tickets for the tech on duty (also me) to look at.

    Me: Are you here for service and repair?

    Cust1: Yes.

    Me: How can I help you?

    Cust1: Customer service told me I qualify for a program where I can pay $29.99 and get a two year contract for a new phone?

    Me: OK, you’ll need to see a sales rep for that. Your name is on the queue so one will call you when it’s your turn.

    Me: Hi, are you here for service and repair?

    Cust2: Yes.

    Me: How can I help you?

    Cust2: I need to purchase a new phone?

    Me: OK, you’ll need to see a sales rep for that. Let me add you to the queue and someone will call you when it’s your turn.

    Me: Hi, are you here for service and repair?

    Cust3: Yes.

    Me: How can I help you?

    Cust3: I need to buy a car charger.

    Me: OK, you’ll need to see a sales rep for that. Let me add you to the queue and someone will call you when it’s your turn.

    (next)

    Me: Hi, are you here or service and repair?

    Cust4: Yes.

    Me: How can I help you?

    Cust4: I have questions about my bill…

    MeL OK, you’ll need to either see a sales rep for that, but there is a long line or you can call customer service and talk to them.

    (next)

    Me:Hi, are you here for service and repair?

    Cust5: Yes.

    Me: How can I help you?

    Cust5: I dropped my phone in the water but I have insurance.

    Me: OK, here’s the number to Insurance_Company_01, the insurance company who handles those claims.

    Cust5: I called them but they said you can replace it here because I didn’t want to wait.

    Me: We cannot make insurance claims here by law. Did you tell them you dropped it in water?

    Cust5: No, I just told them it stopped working.

    Me: You need to call them back and tell them you dropped it in water.

    The first actual ticket, the phone "just stopped working". I ask the customer if anything happened to the phone before it stopped working. The customer quickly replied "no!!". I open it up, not only is the inside completely corroded away, but it is dripping wet. Let's go back to the insurance company!

    So basically you got to turn away every customer who came to you. Nice!

      Yep, I had about 1 or 2 others who I couldn't help.

      The monotony was starting to remind me of one of the Dragon Warrior games (where you spend the first half of the game working in a weapons shop)

        My god... Are people just THAT dumb? Do they not understand what service and repair means? I mean it's not even like they were in the wrong place, you ASKED Service and Reapair, they all said yes.

          They probably think that they can bypass the waiting for a rep, and get what they need quicker...um no. You are not that special, therfore you have to wait your turn, just like everyone else! There's a reason WHY service and repair is separate from sales, etc. - THEY ARE COMPLETLEY DIFFERENT!

          That would drive me nuts...

            I think the word "service" should be removed, and call it just "repair." That might take care of a few of them that think you can provide other services...or not.
            Everything will be ok in the end. If it's not ok, it's not the end.
