Customer Service Stories

This feature is about sharing experiences.  We feature corporations who provide excellent service and those who do not. We share the hero stories so we can pick up good practices used, and the villains to remind us of what we should not be doing!

To protect our members', we do not include the names of any of the Villains, however the heroes are always mentioned!

So, if you've had any good or bad experiences with a telephone agent that really stood out, we want to hear about it! - and we'll feature it in this section!

Interested in contributing Service Stories? Submit Them Online Here and tell us who gives the best services and who you just love to hate!
