Thank you YL, I appreciate your opinion and I expected this review.
I could tell from the moment you hung up on our dispatcher that you would feel the need to put this on HomeStars -and that's OK with us - we are transparent and we are human - humans who do care, a lot.
We are a busy call centre that in the mornings (when you phoned) after a cold night people wake up to broken furnaces and we were experiencing approximately 30 calls every 10 minutes and even with 6 agents on the phone lines, yours was doing her best to not leave people on hold but to juggle the lines as best as possible to give fast service.
Unfortunately for us, you were not being as polite as you describe here as I was in the office beside hers and heard the conversation.
It was obvious from the start you were being rude to our dispatcher.
You were refusing to hold like others were doing so patiently -and you were not accepting the warranty situation as nicely as you present it to be now.
I do appreciate your honesty, very much, at least you admitted allowing your warranty to lapse. And I also thank you for admitting that we did a good installation.
But please understand a lot of people that do not keep up with their warranty, then proceed to call us angry at themselves, but yelling at us.
Our dispatcher was just trying to properly explain the situation to you and you didn't have time for it and became hostile with her, and unfortunately even good employees can get frustrated when a customer is not acting in a respectful manner.
There is nothing out of the norm for being placed on hold for a brief moment when businesses are extremely busy.
People in customer service to have it tough as I witnessed today at an x-ray clinic in Toronto- where I noticed 4 huge signs stating that "verbal abuse to the staff on the desk will not be tolerated".
Kindness goes both ways.
Thank you for your review, we remain yours in excellent service,
