So I just got off the phone with Telus yet again. Here is the run down of an hour of my life. Called into technical support said that this is getting silly can you fix it or not. The yet again transferred me to Loyalty Dept. I am not really sure why they do that because really all I want to hear is that there is updated notes and that I am important to them. Really wouldn’t mind them lying to me lol at least then I would get a little bit of satisfaction that they actually care.
Once I got into the Loyalty Dept I got probably the worse agent that I could of got today, he wouldn’t listen at all. All He did was tell me that it was the phone and that do I want to cancel my account or not. So being that I have been in technical support for 8 years and know how this works. I called back and got a very nice man in the Loyalty Dept. This is what they are willing to do for me. I do laugh because really not an offer at all and thought they would be more helpful. So he put on his top hat and tap shoes and said Andie I have a deal for you. I can get you into a 32 Iphone for 299 and a 3 year contract and then I can give you very close to what you pay for already a month. At that point I believe he said and in the other hand I have very shiny things in my hand. I believe this was a distraction to not notice that really he wasn’t offering me anything that a Joe Nobody of the street wouldn’t get from them. So not really satisfied with that so I am now composing my letter to the office of the president.
Will post later the letter and a responsive if I ever get it.
At this point I think that I will continue to watch the offer that I got from Rogers and continue to get my money credited every month for my telus phone. They want 200 to cancel the contract I have 10 months left. I feel no money coming Telus’s way anytime soon.
So what I am going to do is each month I will call them and they can look at my usuage and gee did use my phone that month again because it still doesnt work on your network telus. .
Well this was my rant today hopfully you enjoy it and feel free to drop me a comment or two about you experiences.
Oh forgot to mention those of you that are traveling to the Olympics and are looking to buy a sim while you are hear to use besure to get Rogers that one works no problem with my phone and also my t-mobile works great.
Later All
So had another call put into Telus because my cell phone is still not working. This time instead of transfering me to the network team the put me in touch with the loyality team. Wow that was productive. So the short story is they are going to give me a refund of my charges and look into the issue. What blows my mind is everytime that I get off the phone with them my cellphone works for 20 mins. Lol so guess they need to be the first person I call when my phone starts working. Going to wait for my tech to call me tomorrow and then I think it is time to change carriers.
Unless Telus offers me a phone without a contract. We will see how that goes.
So I got a renewal for my website today and I am thinking of cancelling it. Dont really use it as much as I probilby should, and Amanda also has one so thinking I may just keep hers. I am going to do a poll and if you do come to the website and check it please vote I will base my feedback on if I should keep it around or not.
I played around with ustream last night looks pretty cool and it can be updated with my iphone with their app called ustream live broadcaster. I can also stream my tv to it so I can watch the hockey games on it at work, not like I would do that because that would be bad.
