Customer services

I have a number I value very much having owned it many years and being unique with 5 fives in a row.
I transferred number and unfortunately, after 8 weeks could not get it ported..... Customer services were fantastic and I very much appreciated their patience when I was short but having obtained a new pac it went through effortlessly withing 24 hours.
Plusnet compensated me adequately and I want to thank all the staff involved who bared with me during this little episode.
Special thanx to Rebecca in customer complaints, she was golden and kept in touch every other day while pushing for the number port.
No complaints here, things go wrong sometimes and it was unfortunate but hey, all good now...... Plusnets a great company....never get put off by an occasional short fused staff member... Remember., they are human just like you and sometimes your (our) understanding is needed.
Thanx plusnet from a happy customer xx
P. S. Happy Xmas lol

Re: Customer services

@OliGaffney & @Mason  It is,  indeed, nice, to see some good feedback about PlusNet....

 

unfortunately, this only emphasises that it is the Customer Service Staff, that are the gems in this business.... and they, do, generally, try to be helpful within the constraints of their work remit..

 

However... this kind of praise, for an individual CS staff member, should not be regarded by the "upper management" that THEY are also being praised... NO... they are not... 

 

IF Upper Management, and Senior Management did THEIR job properly, many of the problems that have been brought to this forum over the past 9 years, would have been sorted out, by now, and the number of problems, would mean that the CS staff and the infrastructure, would be able to cope much better.

For far too long now..  any complaints about how long customers have to wait for any kind of service, have been met with the stock answer.... "We are sorry, but...........      Give us time .. and we`ll get there " attitude.

which is not doing PlusNet any favoururs.... and why?  because Upper and Senior managers have failed consistently in their position, to address the problems, and  provide the services they promised.

Re: Customer services

I am not jumping on the bandwagon, "with your gripes" as you put it...

 

I was pointing out the fact that ...YES.. the customer service staff DO a good job... but that the management/Staff  should not take that as a compliment to them for doing their job poorly.. and lliving off reflected glory , so to speak..

 

It is all very well for @OliGaffney as a member of "staff" to come in and enjoy the praise,  but he didn`t actually do anything.. if you see my point...  ( no offence @OliGaffney ) it was the member of the Customer Service who gave you the service... and deserve the praise you have given....

 

And I do moan about other things, as you pointed out. ! !  Smiley

Re: Customer services

Can you please tell me what post were removed and how they would be deemed insulting?
I insulted no one... I simply rebuked someone who thought it seemed appropriate to sour my good report... Surely he should of been deleted?

Yours respectfully
