    Good luck with that man. They seemed a cool bunch of people, but we had to keep on them for some issues that should have been resolved.

    Don't you remember her pigging out on the materia, which is why Sephiroths' like OH NOES SHE ATE THE HEALZ!!!11!!11shift+1 and he had to perform exploratory surgery to give you back the Materia the bitch ate only he couldn't get them all and thats why she sunk like a rock. Aeris was the true villain of the story.

  8. Re:Customer Care on Consumers Union Wants You to Share Your Story · · Score: 1

    As an ex-customer care rep, I must concur. There were of course times where the company was in the wrong but for the most part it was the customers fault. Treating me like an idiot or screaming at did not give me incentive to provide just the basic service, which would be called inadequate whether I put an apologetic or a stoic tone to it. On the contrary though, I loved it when people screamed and cursed at me, because more often then not it was over 5 dollars that was going to have been rectified the next bill. Those people made my day! But when you treat me like a normal human being, I am much more inclined to find loopholes to assist you. For example: a mother let her daughter take her cell phone to Argentina or somewhere in South America. The daughter proceeded to use her phone as if it were back here in the states, clearly trying to limit her calls to her off peak minutes. Unfortunately, when roaming internationally peak and off peak don't matter, its a flat rate. Since it's on the mothers account she owed in excess of 15,000 dollars. And whats more, the remainder of the usage wasn't calculated onto the bill. The lady didn't scream, or curse, or talk down to me, or even escalate to a supervisor. I did my best to try to get the mother to say that possibly the phone had been stolen or used inappropriately without actually telling her to say yes to my questions so I wouldn't get into trouble, but the mother either did not pick up on my hints or was to truthful for her own good. At any rate, I had to break to the lady that there was absolutely nothing I could do since she confirmed with me that the daughter did use the phone outside her calling area, and at this point, the mother didn't cry, or yell at me or try to wheedle me, but asked me what she could do at this point. I actually still have nightmares because there was no loophole I could try for a customer i really wanted to work for.

    This turned out a lot longer then I thought it would be.

    Maybe by bleeding some red they are convincing the Fed that hey, we bleed too or something. I don't know, nor presume to know the thoughts of MS higher ups nor the shareholders who are still there. Please share your insight.

    I feel the same way, but at least from when I was fired any credit over 24.99 had to be accompanied by a one year extension, and alot of reps and supervisors toed that line because they feared for their jobs. Luckily I didn't. Sucked to be me in January tho!

    I worked there from Nov 2002 to Jan of this year, and they have cracked down on the discretionary credit. IT sucked to be us when we felt the credit was necessary but we had to run around trying to find a supervisor to ok it or get through to resolution to explain to them and defend your decision to issue the credit. Good times.
