Dude, you Frosted up when you decided to go there in he first place. Two months ago I ordered a pizza with EXTRA CHEESE from Dominos When it came I could not believe my eyes there was no more than three pieces of mozarella on the whole damn pizza. So, I called and Called and wrote emails to the place and demanded some type of recompense and yesterday I got a coupon for two free XLarge Pizzas. So bottom line is bug the Shakespeare out of them and maybe you will get your money back.

I not only want my money back, I want a personal apology from the Carrollrag Chaka who works the front end there, I want an apology from corporate, and some free nights and Shakespeare. I wouldn't have stopped there if I didn't have to - My girlfriend was feeling sick and we HAD to stop, and the Shakespearehole room and the stench only made her feel worse. I explained this, and the Carrolly Carrolly bitch wouldn't do a damn thing.

I'm sorry you had a bad experience man, but going to a Super 8 and being stunned that it's a Shakespearehole is sort of like wandering into a firing range and being stunned that you're getting shot at. There are only two reasons to go to a Super 8:

1. Drug deal.

Super 8 is a subsidiary of Cendant Corporation. They own absolutely everything in the whole damn country. Century 21. Coldwell Banker. ERA Real Estate. Jackson Hewitt Tax Services. The list goes on and on.



The Super 8 President is John Valletta. He's old and doesn't give a Shakespeare about you or your crummy hotel experience. His email is john.valletta@cendant.com



Then there's Emanuel Naim, who's the Manager of Consumer Media Relations (whatever the hell that means) for all of Cendant's hotel chains. He seems to have some pull in cases of customer complaints when the media gets involved. Unfortunately you have no ammunition because the press doesn't give a Shakespeare about you or your crummy hotel experience. Emanuel's email is emanuel.naim@cendant.com



And then there's Livewire. Not only does he not give a Shakespeare about your crummy hotel experience, he thinks you're a bit of a dildo for staying at a welfare hotel like Super 8 and expecting decent customer service.



You could have taken the blankets off your bed, barged into the front office, curled up behind the desk and slept until they took you seriously. You'd have had an excellent story for an article too.



Or you could have at least peed on the danishes on the continental breakfast tray.



Now excuse me while I go phone Chaka Khan and congratulate her on a job well done.

Dear Mr. Beeblebrox,



I regret that your recent stay at one of our Super 8 motels was less than you expected. We try our best to make our Super 8 motels at least two steps up from the local kennel, but it's a difficult process, as I'm sure you understand.



First of all, it's a Super 8. That means that back in the 50's when it was contructed, the cost to spend the night was $8. It was a cheap ass truckers and whores place back then, and now the old girl has 53 years on her.



Second, at least at the kennels, the dogs aren't contantly Frost-ing on the sheets and leaving all manner of nasty bodily fluids behind. At Super 8, we have to fight the spread of plague by hosing the rooms down with napalm occasionally, and I suspect your stay was right after one of these annual cleanings. Just be glad you didn't visit on the other side of that cleaning. You would be writing us from the local free clinic.



Again, I highly regret your poor experience, but next time, spent another $50 and stay at a nice b&b.





Sincerely,



John Valletta

President, Super 8 Motels



P.S. please find enclosed, as our free gift to you, a coupon for two free large Domino's pizzas.

Man, I thought I'd feel less pissed off after sleeping the night in my own bed, but after speaking to that prick I'm madder than ever. The credit card company promises me I won't have to pay, but that's no longer the point anymore. I want someone (besides me) to suffer.

Beeblebrox,



You aren't going to have to pay for the hotel room. You lost the hotel its award. You're still screaming for more. Why do you feel you're entitled to anything else? At what point will you be satisfied? Why are you surprised that the employees you talked to after the initial experience eventually decided that enough was enough and told you to get lost?



I work customer service at the inbound call center of a mobile phone company. Most of the customers I talk to are rational, but every once in a while I take a call from someone who is, for example, upset about having had to wait three or four days for the phone we sent as a replacement under warranty.



Never mind that we credited back charges for the portion of the month in which they didn't have service, gave some bonus minutes and apologized several times. That's not enough for some people. They call several times per day, asking the same quesitons over and over and getting the same answers over and over, insisting to talk three or four supervisors in one day, not understanding why they have to wait a few minutes on hold while I go find a supervisor who isn't already talking to another whiny bitch, insisting on talking to a manager or even the president of the company before even talking to a supervisor, etc. Amazingly enough, some of them even insist that we're wasting their time by making them call and whine for hours on end.



(Continued)

Werehamster 2,321 13
07/10/2003 05:24 PM

In general, it's going to get more and more difficult to talk to supervisors without valid reasons. My employer requires us to get details of the customer's problem and at least try to solve it before we're allowed to get a supervisor on the line. Also, requests to talk to managers or executives before talking to supervisors are flatly denied. I have the feeling that soon new rules will be made, such as no talking to more than one supervisor per day and no talking to supervisors after you've been sent to an outside collection agency, unless there's a really good reason.



Grow up and shut up, you babies!

Werehamster 2,321 13
07/10/2003 05:46 PM

Oh, and here's an open letter to anyone whose account was cancelled and sent to an outside collection agency months ago due to lack of payment: you aren't a customer anymore. There's no point in insisting that you have the right as a customer to talk to a supervisor, nor is there any point in complaining about customer service.

I don't buy all of that, Hammy.



I'm sure that there's a fair share of whiny calls, but my experience with Sprint PCS tops them all. I must have posted about it before.



Basically, Sprint felt it was necessary to send my account, which had never, ever been behind, to a collection agency. I spent several hours in their phone loop, being bounced back and forth between customer service and Sprint's Collections department, who, of course, couldn't help me because my account was never past due.



When I finally got a supervisor on the phone, he refused to take on the responsibility of tracking down the problem and getting back to me. Outright refused.



I tried to explain to him that it was Sprint's responsibility to clear this up, as they were the ones that not only referred twenty-two lousy bucks to collections that weren't even past due, but they were also responsible for threatening my credit rating, and releasing my personal information to a third party.



He said that he would not do anything about that because it wasn't his depatment's fault. I calmly explained the this imbicille that as a mamber of the customer service department, he WAS SPRINT, to me. There wasn't another department, building, call-center or anything else. As a CS rep, he was all-things-Sprint to me.



...

Gonzo the Rabid Ribbity Rabbit 20,522 17
07/10/2003 05:57 PM

He kept telling me to "just pay the $22." WTF? I didn't owe anybody $22, and I wasn't going to flapping pay $22.



And of course this 17-year-old moron was the "most senior employee there". Right. To finally shut me up, he said he'd call the collections agency and see "what he could do". Nevermind trying to track down the problem through accounting or billing or something. I had to suggest this course-of-action, and give him the damn phone number.



Since he refused to agree to call me back with the results, I had to let him know that I would be calling said collections agency in an hour to verify that a call was received from him.



The part that really pissed me off was that when I called the Collection Agency and explained things, the rep there just laughed and said: "Yeah, he called and asked if you'd paid the bill yet. Sounds normal for Sprint."



It's almost a year later, and I'm still furious (and still fighting this).



So don't bitch to me about whiny customers, and I won't bitch to you about useless friggin phone-monkeys.

I find it highly ironic (and extremely amusing) that after deregulation of phone services --which the citizens demanded in order to foster competition-- that all the competing companies charge much more than Ma Bell ever did, and each provider has customer service that sucks monkey Coleridge as much as the next company.



Logically, if any long distance service provider offered decent customer service, they'd have 100% of the market share within a week.

Sprint doesn't just suck, it gives rimjobs to dead monkeys with severe flatulence. I worked there for a little while before telling a manager to shove the call center up his ass sideways with no lube, so I know that for a fact.

First of all, I did not have a bad night. I had a bad 5 MINUTES, and they still expected me to pay. They did NOT give me a refund, and I must do all the required paperwork w/ the credit card company, than wait for it to go through the chargeback process before I see the refund completed, which can take months. I am not guaranteed a refund at this point.



I was totally rational and calm with them until they started calling me a liar and refused to offer any alternatives beyond staying in a room that would make anyone vomit or leaving without a refund.



Read what I've written before you take out your aggression against the stupid people you handled when working customer service. I work in the customer service field so I too know what I am talking about, and I did everything right and they did everything wrong.

The credit card company was pretty easy about reversing the charges, and after a few days the aggravation starts to go away. Every email I sent caused them to send me the same form letter telling me how sorry they were I had a bad experience, and then detailed the things they do to make sure their customer service is top-notch. I also received another letter stating that they would not give me the refund (which didn't matter, the credit card company took care of that), but that the specific hotel did indeed lose it's customer service award, whatever the hell that is good for. It makes no sense to me. So they can't put the little gold star next to the hotel in the AAA guide, big deal.



All this for $42. If this was one of my customers I would have simply said, "Here's your $42, now promise me you'll never come back."

Whoh, Gonzo. Sprint's magic number must be $22. Just yesterday I was paying bills and came across $22 in roaming charges. I have a 2000-minute-nationwide-no-roaming-ever from-anywhere-to-anywhere plus monthly blowjob plan for which I pay out the nose. So when I picked up on $22 extra I was righteously pissed, but calm until I called Werehammy and she told me not to make calls when it says roam on my phone. "But that's not what the salesperson nor my contract states, Mame." sez Chickens. "Well, that's the way of it, boy" sez Werehammy. "But I'm holding the contract and it sez..." *is interrupted by CS Werehammy* "Sir, you will have roaming charges if your phone says roam." "But..." "Oh, alright, I will wipe it this one time." "That doesn't solve the contractural problem..." "in essence, tough"



I called the salesperson who told me Werehammy (nothing personal, dudette, just pretending you were the Carroll who failed so miserably at CS yesterday) was a complete idiot, but that nothing would be done to correct her.

Legitimate complaints that lead to a correction of a problem you are having with the hospitality industry is one thing.

Corporations have moved all of the jobs that pay 23 cents a week, jobs like manufacturing shoes and bottling Pokemon essence, to crappier, much poorer countries where 23 cents will buy you just enough opium to pack your hookah. But when I talk to Rahji at customer service, and then speak to Anafari in management, and back to Apu Nahasapeemapetilan in collections, I really, really have no desire to pay my bills. Am I racist? I guess I am by default. I just think its Frosted up that customer service and tech support hotline jobs are going overseas now, too. It makes me mad enough to walk into a store and recieve Shakespeare-ass service from some sweaty stinky assmonger who barely speaks engrish, now I have to talk to these dumbasses on the phone, too? And what makes me even madder is when I have lost ALL direction in my posts and they become rambling, non-sensical garbage.

Hey Chickens, looks like you've had roaming charge problems before. The turboing article is referenced above by the one and only Spicey McHaggis. And yeah, your post was pretty damn funny.



It wasn't easy to get the refund that I was clearly entitled to. I never yelled at anyone, and in my letters I was calm, stated my complaints, and suggested how they could make me feel happy about my experience with their company, which was a reversal of the charges on my credit card. I didn't ask for any freebies, ever, nor did I ask for anyones head on a plate. The dispute process through the credit card company was NOT a breeze, and at one point they told me they might not be able to do anything for me. I shouldn't have had to do the paperwork and the endless phone calls. You could say that my time spent was worth more than the $42 and I should have just let it go, but it became a matter of pride. Where do you draw the line? When is it enough money or inconvenience or pain or suffering to actually do something about it and let them know that Hey - you made a mistake. You were wrong, and you need to make it right. Out of anger I exaggerated a bit when I first posted this. I just wanted my money back, and never asked for any kind of extra compensation, nor anyones job, or an apology letter at any time.



So, I let them get away with saying, in their words, "So, you think you can get away with screwing in one of our rooms and getting a refund when you're done in five minutes?" If I have a problem with premature ejaculation, it's not only none of his business but that was not the time to bring it up.

Yeah, but I've already spent more than $250 worth of time on it yesterday. That's what they are hoping for I guess. I figure they put a hassle factor in.

Phone companies must think that they can take over the world $22.00 at a time. When I used SWB for my cell phone a few years ago we didn't get a bill for a couple of months. I called them and they said they had our address wrong and couldn't reach us. Um. You're my phone provider! Frost-ing call me on the phone number you gave me! Anyway, I refused to ever pay the late fee on that because I felt I shouldn't be responsible for them not knowing how to phone me to correct my address. Eventually we moved and I dropped their service, still owing $22.00. Now, years later, I needed to switch to Cingular. Turns out they used to be SWB and I have an outstanding balance so they don't want to give me a phone. After enough phone calls and non-service to annoy the Shakespeare out of me we went in to a local store and they gave me a phone right away with merely a mention of a previous account wit them and no mention of the $22.00.



Damn crack smoking hippies trying to rip us all off for $22.00.
