[KB6NU] NOT an example of good customer service
KB6NU's Ham Radio Blog /////////////////////////////////////////// NOT an example of good customer service Posted: 01 Sep 2016 12:40 PM PDT http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/kb6nu...m_medium=email On Monday, I tried placing an order online for some antenna wire with one of the leading amateur radio retailers. I got through the checkout procedure, up to the point where I had to type in my credit card info, and when I clicked Submit, the website went haywire and sent me back to the retailers homepage. There was no acknowledgement that the order had been placed, so I assumed that perhaps Id clicked the wrong thing. I went through the order process again, only to have the same thing happen. At that point, I e-mailed the retailer, and described what had happened. I asked them to check if an order had been placed, and in the event that two orders had been placed, noted that I only wanted one of them. On Tuesday, I got a reply from one of their customerÂ*service representatives. He noted that he could only find a record of an order that I placed last October. I phoned the company and spoke with this customer service rep. I explained again what had happened, and he blew me off, saying, Well, the problem must be on your end. We must have had 60 web orders yesterday. He seemed equally unconcerned (clueless?) when I said, Sure, you may have had 60 successful orders, but you dont know how many orders that you lost because the customers were unable to complete their purchases. What I said went in one ear and right out the other. I was both baffled and concerned by this guys reaction.I know that whenever someone seems to have a problem ordering my books from KB6NU.Com, Im all over it. Not only was he quick to blame the way my web browser was set up, he didnt really seem to care about his website security. Chances areÂ*my credit card information has disappeared into the bit bucket, but I really have no way to know that for sure. It could now be in the hands of someone who’ll use it for no good. I truly hope that’s not the case. Ive always respected this retailer, but now Ill certainly have second thoughts about ordering from them again.
