Re: Tech support woes
When setting up my Linksys 'N' setup I had some difficulties. Called tech support because the router was locked up and I was being dumb about it. They told me that the product I purchased was faulty and that I should exchange it? All I really needed to do was some simple resets, but I guess they thought that would be easier to exchange it. What you get when you outsource to idiots I guess..

Quit. Leave the field. Do not do tech support. At MOST, be a bench tech who brings a computer back to a lab, fixes it, and returns it. If you cannot find that position, LEAVE TECH SUPPORT. You will hate your job for life if you stay.
It was one of the smartest things I ever did.

Outsourcing is the death of Customer Support.
Last week we were having problems with our internet. The "line" LED was not blinking even though it was hooked to the computer. So my wife calls TWC and appartenly the got rid of their local support and went over seas. My wife and I are pretty computer savvey so when he starts talking us through reseting the modem, even after we told him we did it, he continues to tell us the steps. We knew we were in for a long phone call.
I hate it when companies do this. If the person just reads directions of a computer and has never seen the said hardware. There are going to be a lot of problems.

Re: Tech support woes
i just wanna let you all know something that ive been dying to say to my customers for months. for those that complain about a $3 cancellation fee within 30 days, which is clearly stated in the licensing agreement which you must agree to before you make the purchase (even though no1 reads those things).
I would like the complainers of this fee to go to best buy, buy norton 360, walk outside, open the box, walk back inside, and try to get a refund.
lets see how much money you get back.
