Cable and satelite TV is the worst thing to be working in anymore. As I've stated in an early post, people are more upset when it comes to being without their television than without their phone service. However, when a TV network does not show something the way the customer wants, the TV call centers are the first ones to receive the complaints.
We had a guy in Hobe Sound, FL who called in almost every day about his high definition TV. Although he would tune in the HD channels, the shows themselves are not in HD unless the program advertises it. Well, every time this man tuned in to the HD channels and saw normal TV, he would call in demanding we fix that for him. The notes always showed the same thing, that the program is in HD if the station advertises it, and that just because you're on an HD station does not guarantee HD programming is what will air. I'm sure he's still alive today doing this.
Or, how about the ones that file a complaint because the football game they were expecting is either blacked out, or the tennis match they were supposed to watch shows basketball instead? Oh, I hated these calls. It got so ridiculous that customers would actually call us when the President of the United States would barge in during a broadcast of their show, wanting us to get rid of him! Come on!
What's amazing is that these people don't give up after one time. They continually do it over and over again. Don't they use common sense?
