Call Centre Conversations

Y'all might like these! 'Specially the last 'un!

Actual call centre conversations>

Customer: "I've been ringing 0800 2100

for two days and can't get through to enquiries, can you help?".

Operator: "Where did you get that number from, sir?".

Customer: "It was on the door to the Travel Centre".

Operator: "Sir, they are our opening hours".

___________________________________________________________________________

Samsung Electronics> Caller: "Can you give me the telephone number for Jack ?"

Operator: "I'm sorry, sir, I don't understand who you are talking

about".

Caller: "On page 1, section 5, of the user guide it clearly

states that I need to unplug the fax machine from the AC wall socket and telephone Jack before cleaning. Now, can you give me the number for Jack ?"

Operator: "I think you mean the telephone point on the wall".>

__________________________________________________________________

RAC Motoring Services

Caller: "Does your European Breakdown Policy cover me when I am travelling in Australia ?"

Operator: " Doesn't the product name give you a clue?"

---------------------------------------------------------------------->

Caller (enquiring about legal requirements while travelling in France

):>

"If I register my car in France , do I have to change the steering wheel to the other side of the car?"

---------------------------------------------------------------------->

Directory Enquiries : Caller: "I'd like the number of the Argoed Fish

Bar in Cardiff please".

Operator: "I'm sorry, there's no listing. Is the

spelling correct?"

Caller: "Well, it used to be called the Bargoed Fish Bar

but the 'B' fell off".

---------------------------------------------------------------------->

Then

there was the caller who asked for a knitwear company in Woven.

Operator: "Woven? Are you sure?"

Caller: "Yes. That's what it says on the label;

Woven in Scotland ".

---------------------------------------------------------------------->

On another occasion, a man making heavy breathing sounds from a phone box

told a worried operator: "I haven't got a pen, so I'm steaming up the

window to write the number on".

---------------------------------------------------------------------->

Tech

Support: "I need you to right-click on the Open Desktop".> Customer:

"OK".>

Tech Support: "Did you get a pop-up menu?".> Customer: "No".> Tech

Support:

"OK. Right-Click again. Do you see a pop-up menu?"> Customer: "No".>

Tech

Support: "OK, sir. Can you tell me what you have done up until > this

point?".> Customer: "Sure. You told me to write 'click' and I wrote >

'click'".>

---------------------------------------------------------------------->

Tech

Support: "OK. In the bottom left hand side of the screen, can > you see

the

'OK' button displayed?"> Customer: "Wow. How can you see my screen from

there?">

---------------------------------------------------------------------->

Caller: "I deleted a file from my PC last week and I have just realised

>

that I need it. If I turn my system clock back two weeks will I have my

file

> back again?".>

____________________________________________________________________________

There's always one. This has got to be one of the funniest things in a long time. I think this guy should have been promoted, not fired. This is a true story from the Word Perfect Helpline,

which was transcribed from a recording monitoring the customer

care department. Needless to say the Help Desk employee

was fired; however, he/she is currently suing the Word Perfect

organization

for "Termination without Cause". Actual dialogue of a former

Word Perfect Customer Support employee.

(Now I know why they record these conversations!)

Operator: "Ridge Hall, computer assistance; may I

help you?"

Caller: "Yes, well, I'm having trouble with Word Perfect.">

Operator:

"What sort of trouble??"

Caller: "Well, I was just typing along, and all of

a sudden the words went away."

Operator: "Went away?"

Caller: "They disappeared."

Operator: "Hmm So what does your screen look like now?"

Caller: "Nothing."

Operator: "Nothing??"

Caller: "It's blank; it won't accept anything when I type." Operator: "Are you still in Word Perfect,or did you get out??"

Caller: "How do I tell?"

Operator: "Can you see the C: prompt on the screen??"

Caller: "What's a sea-prompt?"

Operator: "Nevermind, can you move your cursor around the screen?"

Caller: "There

isn't any cursor: I told you, it won't accept anything I type." Operator: "Does your monitor have a power indicator??"

Caller: "What's a monitor?"

Operator: "It's the thing with the screen on it that looks like a TV. Does it have a little light that tells you when it's on??" Caller: "I don't know."

Operator: "Well, then look on the back of the monitor and find

where the power cord goes into it. Can you see that??"

Caller: "Yes, I think so."

Operator: "Great. Follow the cord to the plug, and tell me if

it's plugged into the wall.

Caller: "Yes, it is."

Operator: "When you were behind the monitor, did you notice that there were two cables plugged into the back of it, not just one??" Caller: "No."

Operator: "Well, there are. I need you to look back there again and find the other cable."

Caller: "Okay, here it is."

Operator: "Follow it for me, and tell me if it's plugged securely into the back of your computer."

Caller: "I can't reach."

Operator: "Uh huh. Well, can you see if it is??"

Caller: "No."

Operator: "Even if you maybe put your knee on something and lean way over??"

Caller: "Oh, it's not because I don't have the right angle - it's

because it's dark."

Operator: "Dark??"

Caller: "Yes - the office light is off, and the only light I have is coming in from the window.

Operator: "Well, turn on the office light then."

Caller: "I can't."

Operator: "No? Why not??"

Caller: "Because there's a power failure."

Operator: "A power......... A power failure? Aha, Okay, we've got it licked now. Do you still have the boxes and manuals and packing stuff your computer came in??"

Caller: "Well, yes, I keep them in the closet."

Operator: "Good. Go get them, and unplug your system and pack it up just like it was when you got it. Then take it back to the store you bought it from."

Caller: "Really? Is it that bad?"

Operator: "Yes, I'm afraid it is."

Caller: "Well, all right then, I suppose. What do I tell them??" Operator: "Tell them you're too f.....ng stupid to own a computer!!!!!"

Hi Chris ! Yes I have read that thread. I daren't go on it, much as I would like to have my say, because I would just get a certain person all bitter and twisted that they are 'under attack' again and commence a diatribe of past occurences against that person. (I do love that word diatribe ! That person is a master at the art of diatribe ! :wah:):yh_rotfl:yh_rotfl:yh_rotfl

I just checked out the thread...

It seems we frequently have one like that going, in FG. Doesn't matter all that much what the OP is, except that it needs to be an issue most normal FGers feel strongly about. Ingredient X is then 'playfully' added, derailing the original OP in the interest of broadening things, all hell breaks loose, the normal FGers who felt strongly about the OP get upset, the derailers get their kicks.. and the thread ends up in the compost pile.

Anyone for a nice cup of tea? Or even a nicer cup of coffee????
