Are You Very Satisfied With The Technical Support Of Your ISP?  email this discussion to a friend?

I work as a technical support agent for an ISP in the United States. Our group specifically talks to business customers so they are much harder to deal with especially if their internet connection drops, if their internet drops so is their business for that day. Residential customers are much easier to satisfy especially if they are not very much knowledgeable with PCs. At the end of each call (that is resolved and caller is not irate) we are required to ask if the caller is very satisfied with the call (I don't do this every time though.. lol!).

Have you ever called technical support before? How was it? Are you very satisfied with the service delivered to you?

Hi.
i am currently living in India and i am using a broadband connection from BSNL and I must say the service they provide is nothing what I expected or what they promise in their promos and advertisements. Though I use internet at home but when I am paying for something and I can't use it at the time I want to then it feels like I have paid a bill of which I haven't taken the meal of.

Have you ever called technical support for it though? Well just like you I am not satisfied with the Internet Service itself and at the same time the technical support of my ISP. They are just too incompetent. I really hate it when they have me do something that I know will not work at all. Thanks for the response!

I am very happy with technical support at my ISP and the ISP in general. The few times I have called tech support, they have called me back almost immediately, been very helpful, friendly and, importantly, they have been able to fix my problem very quickly. This is my second ISP since I was very unhappy with the first one and all the downtime. I wouldn't leave my current ISP.

Good to know that you are happy with your ISP and their technical support. Unfortunately for me, I hate the tech support of my ISP. We had a problem before with service and it took almost a month before they got if fixed :(. I also do not like my ISP because it's literally wireless broadband internet (not the one wireless LAN). So the service is unreliable and pretty sluggish.
Thanks for the response! Happy MyLotting!

Goodness, yuna, a month IS a long time to wait to get your service fixed. I have heard that wireless can be unreliable. The signal can also be affected by the weather and cloud cover, can't it?

I used to have a problem with my internet connection where I just connect with my brother's. I set up a network and my computer is connected to this which is connected to the internet. The connection used to get disconnected fairly regularly until I was told that all that was needed was to turn off the modem and turn it back on. It worked.


myLot reputation of 94/100. yuna15 (1148)   ranked 96 out of 13,142 in internet  4 years ago

That's right the modem needs to be turned off regularly to avoid any problems with the internet. We call it "power cycling". Plus if you have a router besides your modem "power cycling" needs to be in sequence. It doesn't matter which is turned off first. But when you turn it back on, always turn the modem on first what for at least two lights to stabilize then power up the router. Hihi, just wanted to share it. Thanks for the response!

most of the tech representative that i talk to are not so satisfied with there support from may problem. they are so good when it comes in bills and payments...lol... but in the end i always respect them coz tech support or agent is not that too easy job so i always think what i always ask...


myLot reputation of 94/100. yuna15 (1148)   ranked 96 out of 13,142 in internet  4 years ago

Good to know that somebody understands the kind of work we have :). Although I really do not like one of my experience with Smart Bro when an agent hung up on me because she was insisting on having me do a troubleshooting step that was clearly unnecessary. When I called back I asked for a supervisor and took me forever before I got one. Then they found out that it was a problem with their access point.


myLot reputation of 79/100. carinio98 (1545)   ranked 844 out of 13,142 in internet  4 years ago

yeah they always give you some nasty rebutts and sort of kill time... di ko sila masisisi kung minsan di nila alam gagawin nila... as long as they do there job to give 100% satisfaction to there customer in terms of good quality service...
