Having worked in customer services for more years than I care to remember, and obviously providing first class customer service to my customers in my current IM business, I really cannot tolerate bad customer service... ...but what I've just encountered is truly shocking.
I'm SHOCKED. Please, don't treat your customers like this...

Having worked in customer services for more years than I care to remember, and obviously providing first class customer service to my customers in my current IM business, I really cannot tolerate bad customer service...
...but what I've just encountered is truly shocking.
I bought a product on Amazon.
It arrived, and not only was it a different model, but also, it didn't work at all (tested properly too, so it wasn't a user error.)
I emailed them and asked how I could return it.
They emailed back saying I'll have to pay for postage (preferably recorded, because otherwise they cannot guarantee they'll get the item back - lol)
So, being a bit annoyed over all this, I write my Amazon review.
I said "The wrong product arrived, and worse still, it didn't work! The company expect me to pay for the item to be returned, I would avoid."
That's a paraphrased review, but more or less what I said.
Now get this:
They then email me from their "legal department" and say:
Can you believe that? What would you do next? Would you ignore them? Did I do anything wrong?
I don't think so. I guess they are just pissed because they got a bad review. HA! Does a bad review constitute libel?
Do you think this is a smart way to get a good name for your self?
When I see the customer service of fellow marketers, it's easy to forget how bad it could be in the "real world."
