Customer service, everyone say's their's is great while a large percentage fail miserably. By Vern Anderson

Customer service is probablyrepparttar most important part of any online business, but many are droppingrepparttar 104758 ball.

This past week (not by design) I encountered just how great a lot of customer service problems are handled.

My first dealing was after I made a product purchase and needed customer support forrepparttar 104759 product. After four request's for support with no answer I gave up.

Now it could be that my email never got torepparttar 104760 customer support due to filters. I only know howrepparttar 104761 person needing support feels.

Another web site was offering a service (45.00 per month) I thought I might need for my web sites so this time I sent an email to customer support asking aboutrepparttar 104762 quality of their customer support and elapsed time for a reply.

Three day's later I received a reply andrepparttar 104763 tone ofrepparttar 104764 reply was, why are you bothering us when you are not a customer. I emailed another question and never received a reply at all.

I located this same service at another web site (onlyrepparttar 104765 name was different) so I tried again. After two day's I received my answer to their customer support implying, why don't you signup and find out. Now I receive autoresponder messages every couple of day's pushing their service.
