I had an at&t hard line up until about 2 months ago. I call them to cancel. First guy to answer the phone gets my info and then says "oh, you want to cancel, I have to send you to the cancellation people". So I get transferred to a woman, who takes all my information, and then says "oh wait, you're a Uverse customer (I'm not...), I have to transfer you." Before I can get "what?" out of my mouth, I'm transferred....back to the first guy I talked to. He starts to ask questions, hears the word "cancel" and starts to transfer me. Before he does, I say, "hey, hold on, man. you just talked to me like 5 minutes ago, the lady you transferred me to said something about Uverse, and I don't even know what that is, then she transferred me to you". So he then proceeds to a lenghty sales pitch about Uverse. I say "sounds nice, can I cancel my phone now?"
He cancels my phone. It takes 15 seconds. So the guy that answered my call, and transferred me to someone else, who transferred me back to him, could've cancelled my fucking service in 15 seconds the first goddamn time... Needless to say, not a big fan of AT&T customer service, either. |

I've cracked the code, and to save time I now just proactively hate any company that has more than 200 employees.

I had a guy stop by the house last week as well. He asked me if I was aware of their service(I was). He asked me if I'd like to get it and I told him that if they carried the NFL Ticket, I'd be happy to switch over and take advantage of their bundled package(HD, VOIP, etc.). He said that they didn't carry it, but wanted to know which team I rooted for. I told him that I followed the Chiefs and he said "So do I!!" I then asked him what he thought about Croyle and after he stammered for a bit as it was obvious that he didn't have a clue about who I was talking about, I just shut the door on him.

I look forward to some AT&T door to door salesman coming to my house. I will give him twice the beating that I usally give to those Jehovah bastards who knock on my door.

I've had UVerse for a couple of months now and have been pleased overall.
I had to call customer service once since they hadn't switched off billing for DSL (since internet service is part of UVerse). It took a little while, but everyone was pleasant. |
