minor things that make you fume

[artetas sock]

At my lads school, every single mum, whose fella who doesn't work, but provides them with a brand new Audi A3 / A4 / A5 / Q7 causes mayhem everyday with the fact that they park where they want.

White Audi A3 - Parks in disabled bays.
White Audi A4 - Parks across an elderly couples driveway, blocking their car in.
Black Audi A5 - parks across the school gates.
White Audi A5 - parks in the corner of the road at an angle on double yellows, meaning people can't turn the corner.
Gold Audi Q7 goes down the school road so fast that she runs someone over everyday.

Too many there to do their tyres in one go, who should I go for first ?

Stinger?

Ah ok. Very frustrating.

Ha, honestly, Tesco mobile customer service folk have the worst job. Lovely people bound by appalling procedures that make you want to hate them so much.

To summarise: having spent over 40 mins on the phone just trying to get to the returns department, I cracked and told them to just cancel the whole contract. I think the lass was a tad shocked. I don't care, the thought of having to deal with that lot ever again drove me to it.

Same everywhere. On phone or in store. I don't even get mad at them anymore, most are just poorly trained. I'm more shocked when you actually get good service these days. Used to be expected, now it's a bonus.

A little example -

'look, my local Tesco has a mobile phone section, can I just take it there and get it sorted?'

'No, cos you bought it online.'

What difference does it make?! It's the same sodding company! Why do they persist in putting these barriers up all the time?

When I was with EE I had the same thing.
No point getting mad at the operator because they're only going through a script and usually not in their first language.

When they rang me up to try and get me tied in again when my contract was nearly up I told them. Said no thanks the service has been crap so going to try elsewhere. They basically said "fair enough mate" so I think it was the 100th time they'd heard it that day

Using the tesco brand to bring people in but then separating themselves from it when you have an issue.

Every little helps.

Couldn't agree more. You have to remind them sometimes who's paying who. Carphone warehouse are comical. Looked online for a contracted iPhone for my mums birthday. Found a really good deal so went to aintree to pick it up. Was told its an online offer only and they couldn't match it.
Walked 30ft to the carphone warehouse in PC world. They did an even better offer. I asked why the problem over the road? The reply? "Oh, we're a different company"

I think it's all part of the same problem. The people you deal with have a preset directive on what they can and can't do.

Smaller businesses are great for being more flexible but when it comes to phones, broadband etc you get what you're given
