Revenge of the customer service rep.

Heres a good reason why you should be nice to the person in the call center when you ring customer service.

I have a feeling some of you might enjoy this :evillaugh

Penalty for posting upside-down $200
Penalty for posting out of focus.. $200
Total........................................ $400

Just saw on the news that the guy got a compensation payment of about $3000 (yes,3 grand!) from Telecom,and a rival teleco is offering big bucks to buy his original copy of the phone bill!

Doesn't change the fact that he probably is an arrogant bastard though!

And what did he learn? That he can be an arrogant bastard, and reap rewards. BULLSHIT!!

Telecom should have stood behind their employee, and demanded the charge. If he refused to pay, shut off his phone, and attack his credit record.

Maybe next time he would have been cordial when he dealt with a customer service rep.

If only we could get a credit when a rep is short and rude to the customers too.

A) get their manager on the phone

B) take your business elsewhere

C) step back and evaluate how you are talking to the rep.

LOL, it's not good business practice but props to the guy who had the balls to put that on the bill. He gets a brownie point for being brave.

I do have to say though, the guy must have really been an @$$Hole for someone to put that on his bill. People don't just randomly do stuff like that for a joke.
