I started out this week going to my ophthalmologist. I spent $1500 this year on TWO pair of glasses. The coating on one pair started to fog. Guess what they said to me when I asked them to replace the lenses. SORRY, YOUR OUT OF WARRANTY BY ONE MONTH. I asked for the manufacturer's name and phone number and called them direct. After a maze of press 1 for this - press 2 for that, I finally reached a human who resolved my problem.
Twice this year I had to replace my Bluetooth earpiece. Yes, it broke again. I went back to the phone store I purchased the Bluetooth from....you guessed it - they told me to call the manufacturer. The salesperson didn't even get up from his chair to see if he could fix it. He gave me an 800 number (that didn't work). Guess who just lost a customer. I called Motorola and they are sending me a third earpiece. So much for quality control.
I received an update for my Garmin GPS. Oh Yeah! The update didn't work. I called Garmin and talked to someone I couldn't understand. I have to admit, they did try to help me...until the line went dead. This happened twice. GPS is now working with the old data.
Ordered a postage meter from Pittney Bowes. Tried to install it with the CD that accompanied the meter. Well this time it couldn't be installed because Pittney Bowes meter didn't support the Vista Operating System. Nowhere could this little tidbit of information found on the multiply ads mailed to me. Nice way to find out. But...you can use the meter by phone hookup.
Shall I tell you about my web site company ( they are also activerain members)? I have e-mailed and called them multiple times in the past three weeks for help. No reply.
Are you starting to see the pattern. NO ONE CARES ANYMORE! If we as realtors worked this way, we would be eating out of a dumpster. How do you stop this blatant abuse? I need to know.
