Customer service; idiot customer *true story*

Rossonero

My brother used to work in this area.
He used to take calls from people who wanted to know what was wrong with their computers. The company also catered for England calls. One posh woman called one day;

Bro: "How may I help you?"
Customer: "I'm wondering about that service, where you can bank through your computer."
Bro: "Yes? What's the problem?"
Woman: "Well, I'm putting my bank card in that slot on the face of the computer and nothing seems to be happening."

I used to work for a company that took phone calls for a whole load of different companies. One time this woman rang through to rubbish collection number (i wont name the company). Any she was enquiring about recycling:

Me: hello, *name* here how can i help you?

Woman: I was just wondering about the recycling service that ye provide. Really i was wondering what i can recycle?

Me: Well you can recycle everything from paper and cardboard to food cans, plastic bottles, clothes, old shoes and milk cartons.

Woman: Thats fantastic. How about the waste left over from dinner. If i put that in the recycling will we look after that?

Me: (with a look of shock in my face) Yes mam, what we do is we collect all the food and freeze it and twice a year we put it all together and send it off to the starving childern in africa.

Woman: That is the best thing i heard all day. Well that settles it. I would like to avail of your recycling service.

Me: (laughing so much i had to hang up)
