For your read.

One caveat though: I did NOT write it! :))

**********************************************

Complaint Letter of the Year. A real-life customer complaint letter sent to NTL (to their complaints dept....)
**********************************************
Dear Cretins,
I have been an NTL customer since 9th July 2001, when I signed up for your 3-in-one deal for cable TV, cable modem, and telephone. During this three-month period I have encountered inadequacy of service which I had not previously considered possible, as well as ignorance and stupidity of monolithic proportions. Please allow me to provide specific details, so that you can either pursue your professional perogative, and seek to
rectify these difficulties - or more likely (I suspect) so that you can have some entertaining reading material as you while away the working day smoking B&H and drinking vendor-coffee on the bog in your office:

My initial installation was cancelled without warning, resulting in my spending an entire Saturday sitting on my fat arse waiting for your technician to arrive. When he did not arrive, I spent a further 57 minutes listening to your infuriating hold music, and the even more annoying Scottish robot woman telling me to look at your helpful website....HOW?

I alleviated the boredom by playing with my testicles for a few minutes - an activity at which you are no-doubt both familiar and highly adept. The rescheduled installation then took place some two weeks later, although the technician did forget to bring a number of vital tools - such as a drill-bit, and his cerebrum. Two weeks later, my cable modem
had still not arrived. After 15 telephone calls over 4 weeks my modem arrived... six weeks after I had requested it, and begun to pay for it.

I estimate your internet server's downtime is roughly 35%... hours between about 6pm - midnight, Mon-Fri, and most of the weekend. I am still waiting for my telephone connection. I have made 9 calls on my mobile to your no-help line, and have been unhelpfully transferred to a variety of disinterested individuals, who are it seems also highly skilled bollock jugglers.

I have been informed that a telephone line is available (and someone will call me back); that no telephone line is available (and someone will call me back); that I will be transferred to someone who knows whether or not a telephone line is available (and then been cut off); that I will be transferred to someone (and then been redirected to an answer machine informing me that your office is closed); that I will be transferred to someone and then been redirected to the irritating Scottish robot woman...and several other variations on this theme.

Doubtless you are no longer reading this letter, as you have at least a thousand other dissatisfied customers to ignore, and also another one of those crucially important testicle-moments to attend to. Frankly I don't care, it's far more satisfying as a customer to voice my frustration's in print than to shout them at your unending hold music. Forgive me, therefore, if I continue.

I thought BT were shit, that they had attained the holy piss-pot of godawful customer relations, that no-one, anywhere, ever, could be more disinterested, less helpful or more obstructive to delivering service to their customers. That's why I chose NTL, and because, well, there isn't anyone else is there? How surprised I therefore was, when I discovered to my considerable dissatisfaction and disappointment what a useless shower of bastards you truly are. You are sputum-filled pieces of distended rectum incompetents of the highest order.

British Telecom - wankers though they are - shine like brilliant beacons of success, in the filthy puss-filled mire of your seemingly limitless inadequacy. Suffice to say that I have now given up on my futile and foolhardy quest to receive any kind of service from you. I suggest that you cease any potential future attempts to extort payment from me for the services which you have so pointedly and catastrophically failed to deliver - any such activity will be greeted initially with hilarity and disbelief quickly be replaced by derision, and even perhaps bemused rage. I enclose two small deposits, selected with great care from my cats litter tray, as an expression of my utter and complete contempt for both you and your pointless company. I sincerely hope that they have not become desiccated during transit - they were satisfyingly moist at the time of posting, and I would feel considerable disappointment if you did not experience both their rich aroma and delicate texture. Consider them the very embodiment of my feelings towards NTL, and its worthless employees. Have a nice day - may it be the last in you miserable short life, you irritatingly incompetent and infuriatingly unhelpful bunch of twats.

John

Writing letters = Good

Going back to the store you bought it from and bitching up a storm at the cusomter service desk = bad (not to mention the fact that I will hunt you down ) :d

Thanks for sharing Sandhurst. Very well written.
These customer services people are appalling. They deserve such bashing.

Last time, I applied for the NTL package including the internet, the application was approved and the money deducted from my credit card. I waited for 5 days and then called the customer services just to know that the internet line was unavailable in that area. I had to call twice for almost half an hour each to cancel the deal and get my money back- in four weeks.

Then There's Post Office/Royal Mail whose customer service is the most pathetic of all in the UK. You wait for them listening to the crap music and no one would take the call for more than quarter of an hour. Once they take it, they go - wait Sir let me check for you. And then they get lost for another 15 minutes.

Same with credit cards , money lending customer services when you call them for correcting payment mistakes, over charge and things.

Free phone or ordinary lines are at least taking your time only. And there are those in the technical support that charge premium rates to gulp your hard earned sterlings. Hell, they speak all the crap before giving the real idea about sorting your problems.

And when they have to sell their products/promotions, they go buttering you and worst of all, they send you the bills without you saying ok to their offers. You dont remember accepting anything during the tele conversation but the bill appears with funny charges.

Mobile networks are another amazing lot. You have got to listen all those nonsense details about their price plans before actually persuading them to cancel the agreement.

ANd forget to mention about those cheap call centres in India. You call them, ask for a thing or two. They tell you everything is done. And when the next month's bill comes, you can neither laugh nor cry to see nothing being done done at all.

Customer services is at least one thing that suck people in here. Dunno how things are in other parts of the world.

Newuser, thanks. Consumerism gone all awry! And as for those 'i'won't-rip-you-off' 'buttering' twats, why don't you go and give them a good kick in their bollocks (sorry ladies!). Because that's what I am gonna do next!

Good night and see you again.
Carpe diem
