normiss 892 #1 May 25, 2007 why I torture myself with them..... So I thought I should call and confirm.....can someone PLEASE explain to me in FUCKING ENGLISH - HOW is it cheaper to have customer service based on the other hemisphere that does not speak English thereby forcing BOTH of us to repeat EVERYTHING at least twice???? I LOL'ed when she had to put us in the emergency exit row....the 6 questions..."are you able to handle an exit door" - geez I hope so! ..."are you able to speak and understand English directions?" - I lost it on her then....made her repeat it three times...then she laughed...I think she got it! Christ on a pogo stick.... surely the end of times is only around the corner.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boinky 0 #2 May 25, 2007 Unfortunately, they aren't the only ones who are frustrating when you call their customer service. I recently went through the same aggravating crap when I called Sprint. You don't understand half of what they're saying....and the calls take twice as long because they have to repeat every single fucking thing you say to them!!!!

FallRate 0 #13 May 25, 2007 QuoteHell, I wish I COULD get a real person when I call half of the companies I do business with. I have found the easiest way to get a person on the line is to say "person"...wait two seconds and say "person" again...wait two seconds and say "human being"...wait two more seconds and say "person, person, Person, PERSON!...Human Effing Being!" This is quite often followed, by "Please, hold while we redirect your call." Note: don't press any buttons on the phone. FallRate Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They kept transferring me to a department that would say I needed the other department and QUITE LITERALLY, after 6 transfers to the same departments, I said, "FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THINGS HOLY PUT ME THROUGH TO SOMEBODY IN THE USA THAT SPEAKS ENGLISH." I really try to be sweet on the phone, but day-um I can only take so much, does anybody else ungreet weet me?

NWFlyer 2 #16 May 26, 2007 Delta customer "service" is evil! I flew them all the time last year when I was going to ATL every week ... and I hated when I had to call for anything. Not much travel anymore, but they still manage to annoy me. Last night I was picking up my parents at the airport. They were connecting through Cincinnati to come out here. You would think that sometime during that 4+ hour flight they might have bothered to update the web site to let me know that it left almost an hour late. Nope, so I got to spend 45 minutes people-watching in SeaTac. "There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please.

ACMESkydiver 0 #17 May 26, 2007 Quote Delta customer "service" is evil! Shyeah, we flew Delta to NYC, come to think of it. Apparently, Delta didn't think that my husband and I would want to sit next to each other on a coast to coast flight...they had me booked in the front and him towards the back of the plane. Thankfully they moved some people around and we were able to sit next to each other, but damn...~Jaye Do not believe that possibly you can escape the reward of your action.

gonzalesna 1 #20 May 29, 2007 Quote Unfortunately, they aren't the only ones who are frustrating when you call their customer service.

You don't understand half of what they're saying....and the calls take twice as long because they have to repeat every single fucking thing you say to them!!!! Ya, I don't have Sprint, but I was getting ads from them last summer... IN SPANISH!!! This pisses me the hell off. I'm one of those that feel that if you're in the U.S., you need to learn to speak and read in English. I can only assume I received the ads in Spanish because my last name is Gonzales (I bet you'd never have guessed) which pisses me off even more because they assumed I needed a friggin' ad in Spanish because of my last name and they assumed English isn't my dominant language. I put a stop to that crap real quick. I took 45 minutes to talk to someone who didn't speak English very well. (How ironic is that? I call and complain to someone who speaks poor English about how I was ticked off about sending ads in Spanish in the U.S. because of an assumption.) The same day I dealt with that, my little sister, who was 17 at the time, got an ad for a credit card from an airline company. (I DO believe it was delta.) I called and yelled at them about sending minors ads for credit cards, and they said that they use the information from those that travel on their flights instead of those that purchase the tickets. Essentially, they could be sending ads to illegals, and kids as young as 10, maybe younger! I know kids are more technological nowadays, so there's a pretty good chance they could figure out how to get a credit card application activated. When I called in, I said to their representative, (who spoke English, thank God!) "Wouldn't it make more sense to send it to the person that bought the tickets?" He agreed, but said basically there's not much he could do about it since they don't send out the ads. Crap like this just makes me bitter... I think I'm gonna go calm down now with a beer, a smoke, and maybe a really sugary item like ice cream or maybe some pie...Some people refrain from beating a dead horse. Personally, I find a myriad of entertainment value when beating it until it becomes a horse-smoothie. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boinky 0 #21 May 29, 2007 You should appreciate THIS then. A neighbor handed me this container of deep conditioner while we were in Walmart a few weeks ago. I get ready to use it and shake my head, as the directions are all in Spanish. Granted I live in Texas...but still.....Oh....and look where it was made!
