Going the extra mile for someone. I am sure that I can improve on that. I have run into those that don’t do much for the extra mile, in fact hard pressed to do the minimum!! There will always be those!! Yours sounds like it may be the whole company, with a terrible customer service dept!! Can’t say as I would ever have the patience that you had! Have to say, love the person who does go the extra mile! Some how we have to find the value in it for the person giving the customer service… Why do they do what they do… It sure ain’t lie the old days when you had the same pride for the business as the boss!! Times have changed!!

Thanks, Mal!

Yes, I agree with you that many companies need to improve their customer service.

It’s not nice feeling that you’re an inconvenience to them, which is often how some staff make customers feel. The customer service staff that go above and beyond what is expected of them, are the ones who are doing the company proud.

It’s a shame that the not-so-helpful customer service staff often don’t realise the potential damage they’re doing to not only the business, but to themselves.

Thanks for taking the time to comment, Mal. I appreciate it.

Good blog kylie.
Customer service in a lot of companies sucks and they seem to do the least they can. I look for companies that do go the extra mile and put themselves in my shoes.

Hi Matt

Thanks for the comment.

Hehe – yes, I feel “like my throat has been cut” without the internet! I sure did go through a whole range of emotions when I didn’t have a connection for nearly 7 weeks (that was just horrid), but ironically, I really needed a break at that point in time. After 3 weeks of utter frustration, I settled into the realisation that I really couldn’t do anything about it, and I should just stop upsetting myself so much about it and try and enjoy the break.

Mind you, those emotions came flooding back when I thought I was going to have to go through all that again! Luckily it was only for a few days – phew!

It does feel great when you’ve helped someone out and/or made them feel good

Kylie,

You hit a tender chord in this post. I needed to contact the Franchise Tax Board (that’s California’s) last week. After waiting for an hour they disconnected the call right after answering it. When I DID make the connection they told me the address on file was where I had lived five years ago. The lady then proceeded to argue with me as to what my current address was. Suffice to say that the issue with them still has not been resolved.

With little to no service available in certain areas, it behooves us to change that one person at a time and offer the very best to others. You are a shining example of doing just that.

I appreciate you!
