Smart people, they are.

one from my husband when he did tech support for an ISP

"I can't get online"
"are you on your landline phone or a cell phone?"
"cell phone"
"okay, is your landline plugged into the modem?"
"yes"
"okay, is your computer started up?"
"yes"
*cell phone gets fuzzy*
"would you like to call me back on your landline?"
"I can't, they don't turn it on until tomorrow, I just moved"

:headbang:

from another of his friends that worked in the same place

"I can't get the internet to work"
"did you install the software?"
"what's software?"
"the CD you got in the mail, did you put it into your disk drive?"
"no, it won't fit"
"it won't fit?"
"no"

after about 10 more minutes they figure out that he has a computer, but it's only got a floppy drive, he can't use the install CD......oh and btw, HE DOESN'T HAVE A MODEM! LMAO

yeah, it was fun doing tech support for an ISP in the early 90's.......lots of fun. :rolleyes:

Oh man. xD
That last one kills.

Customer Service sucks because people are deeply stupid. I was working at a Game Crazy once upon a time. More than one person came in and bought Van Helsing thinking the game was the movie (this was months before the movie was in theaters). They'd be quite angry upon returning it. Somehow they missed the following clues:
1. They were in a video game store.
2. Van Helsing was $59.99 instead of $24.99.
3. They had to choose whether they wanted it for PS2 or XBox.
4. We asked them if they wanted the strat guide.

I was told more than once that we should remove the poster because it confused people.

Sorry if this is off topic. Just had to share my lingering frustration.

... wonder what those people thought of that movie "Harry Potter: World Quidditch Cup"

Following that last couple of posts, I hear that the first time final fantasy VII was released, a huge number were returned several days later after several people first believed it was a softcore porno game....gusess they didnt see the reverse-side previews...or the age rating...:rolleyes:

I've read throught every single one of these, and I spend half the time laughing and the other half shaking my head at the stupidity of people.

They all were... Dee dee dee. ;)

"How many idiots can there be?
They say it's 1 out of every 3
if you don't know then take it from me
You're the Dee Dee Dee
You, you."

ROFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This, however, isn't funny so much as deeply disturbing and rather frightening.

(you've prob heard it before, but it's worth listening to again. Puts one's own job stress into perspective)

I hope Alex - the telemarketer - got a pay raise after this call.

Considering I'm actually for once supporting a telemarketer should tell you just how bad this call is.

Ever had people who got a DVD for christmas and return it saying they wanted the movie not the soundtrack.

The best part is when they think you're the idiot.
"No, it's you who don't understand. [starts speaking slowly] You keep selling me broken games, I've exchanged Super Smash Bros 5 times and it still won't play on my XBox. I just want to play Super Smash Bros. I don't want to buy a new system, I don't want a different game. I just want to play Smash Bros on my Xbox. Just give me a copy that's not defective.":gundge:

Too much Quidditch.

lol, its kind of funny hearing these tech calls.

i think one of my favorites is the one where a guy thought his cd rom drive was an ejectable cup holder.:D

those are great! nice to see I don't get the stupidest ones...

Directory Enquiries

Caller: "I'd like the number of the Argoed Fish Bar in Cardiff please".

Operator: "I'm sorry, there's no listing. Is the spelling correct?"

Caller: "Well, it used to be called the Bargoed Fish Bar but the 'B' fell off".

:D
