Does anyone call company’s to complain about products -

[NyQuilninja]

I can’t be the only one.
Right? I’ve called to complain about everything from bread to cereal.
They send jewpons and letters saying how sorry they about the overpriced garbage

 

[️ronic]

Sorry, I'm not gay.

I've called companies when I've had an issue with a product, and most of the time they're pretty good about replacing/repairing items at no cost.

Other than that, I'll complain to Amazon whenever my Echo does something stupid that it didn't used to do.

 

[NyQuilninja]

I do on the rare occasion if the item is fucked .
Like opening a empty box of cereal

No, I just don't buy it again. I bought it in the first place. I made the choice to buy something that sucks. At this point in my life I just buy everything in my preferred brand from toilet paper to canoes to ammo to cars. The exception is if there was something clearly defective with it. Even then they'll just lose my business since I'm not one too piss and moan too much. If they respond to a complaint beyond a song, a dance, and a $5 coupon, I might give them a second chance. I'm absurdly loyal to products and brands.

Well I did send photo evidence and a disappointed e-mail when I found a quite sharp bit of bone in a pack of chicken that wasn't supposed to have any bones in it.

I got a voucher for their products of my choice as compensation, so only an idiot wouldn't complain.

I wonder how many fun calls the people working those complaint lines get:

 

[PL 001]

Very rarely. I usually check out reviews online before buying something that isn't food. If I don't and the product turns out to be a piece of garbage, I only have myself to blame for not doing the research.

Even have a system where I never read 5 star or 1 star reviews. 5 star reviews are almost always written by shills, while one star reviews are almost always written by idiots. You'll get the most truth from the 2, 3 and 4 star reviews.

Last time I made a complaint was regarding DoorDash. Just got the standard "we'll look into it" line, and I don't expect anything to come of it.

Only if something straight up doesn't work, and only if it's worth my time. I'm not getting into a pissing match over five dollar pens, for instance. If it's a computer part, yeah, I'm more likely to complain.

I don't complain about the quality of products, like "this cereal tastes bad!" I find it kind of autistic considering I know the exact type of person to do that since I worked at a grocery store.

 

[Rice Is Ready]

No but if you buy something on eBay or Amazon and complain half the time the seller will give you a full refund.

 

[Sīn the Moon Daddy]

I never have, but I would be willing to if I bought something that was either just awful and I'm enraged enough to complain or expensive enough to bother seeking replacement

 

[saisegeha]

Nah, I know how shitty customer support jobs can be so I just deal with a bad product unless it was expensive (over 500 USD or something).

Tourettes guy calls colgate toothpaste

tourettes guy seems unhappy about the way his toothpaste made him feel so he calls the customer care label. THE SONG IS CALLED "every breath you take" - BY P...

The only time i called a company was for my insurance. After hours of automated systems i got a actual person. They help me out fine but it always takes fucking hours to get to that point to ask a simple question like: am i going to die or am i covered?

 

[nagant 1895]

Twice in my life both related to pizza. I will only ever complain if I know that no individual person is going to get heat for something that could be an honest or easy mistake.
Once I pulled a frozen pepperoni pizza out of the box and it had one lonely little pepperoni slice on it and I called the number on the box and they sent me a voucher for 2 pizzas.
A second time a delivery pizza I ordered was like 3 hours late and I called to find out what was up. They agreed not to charge my card and I never got a pizza.

 

[Vorhtbame]

This reminds me that it's time to write Null a strongly worded letter about the quality of threads on this site.

 

[Neil]

No, but I do spam the number 0 whenever I have a tech support issue because FUCK dealing with that gay phone menu bullshit, it never works.

I've complained about a vacation rental once where the cleaning lady turned out to be a peeper and was looking through our windows. I caught her and stared her down, and she kept shamelessly staring while I called her boss.

Turned out she was going senile and kept checking to see if we'd checked out so she could clean. She didn't get fired, but the owner now arranged to pick her up for work, so she's never there alone.

I got my stay refunded.

When I owned a Mazda RX-8 I called to bitch about how my acceleration was insanely spotty and how the gear changes at 4500-6000rpm would stall it if it had been running for more than 20 minutes. They got me talking to an engineer in under 10 minutes and he sent a brand new crate motor to the dealership and had a Mazda of America QA guy fly out to oversee the install by the dealer. He paid for my rental for the 2 weeks it took and comped the entire swap out, even though it wasn't under warranty

 

[LyapunovCriterion]

I just give up because it's too exhausting. The stress involved is simply not worth anything I might possibly get in return.
