Great customer service

Posted on Friday, July 23rd, 2004

Just this last week I had two great customer service experiences, with Speakeasy and Bare Bones Software. With all the horrible customer service most companies provide, via outsourced call centers or worse, the great companies deserve to be noticed and praised, and patronized.

Good experience with SBC Yahoo! technical support

Posted on Tuesday, December 23rd, 2003

Helping a friend set up his new 20” iMac at his house yesterday, we had occasion to call SBC Yahoo!, his internet service provider (ISP), to collect some technical details. Against my expectations, we got through to a tech almost immediately (less than 2 minutes from dialing), and Gail was friendly, helpful, and extremely competent.
