First of all I have a question ... what do customer service team feels to receive a paycheck after ignoring its customers for weeks? just curious. How many tickets do you have on "new" status for months? again, just curious.
The survey on customer service we fill, one of the questions was whether we would recommend Second Life to our friends and my answer, based on "customer service" definitely not, i love my friends. I have never been ignored and poorly treated worse than by the Linden Labs "customer service". Congratulations.
What I'm reading now is that instead of improving the service, you will limit the availability of support and therefore complaints. As I understand it, that is not improving aid, only worsen the current situation in itself is pretty bad.
You will understand that for many people who are premium member is not the possibility to have one of the mansions called "linden homes" that convinces us to stay as premium, not the 300 L, is the possibility of get help that makes either pay monthly or quarterly amount. The benefit that I had after paying that amount is ... in the live chat, depending on who respond to you, 1 hour wait after asking the question without any comment, that is ... nothing, i have things to do with my time better than wait for someone to tell me submit a ticket. Of course there are people who try it, but if they try a lot the answer is "You Have to submit a ticket", then you know you are lost.
Want to help? help. If the support team does not believe that you sent the ticket to the right sub category, they just do not respond at all, they ignore you. Not that they say you have to send this problem to another sub category or there is nothing we can do for you, they just ignore you.
If you ask on live chat to which subcategory you should submit your problem, you can get 3 different answers to the same question, they can not do anything to help and you get stuck with your problem because there are not enough sub categories to go to or even someone be nice and tell you where or how. And you want better support removing sub categories? I do not think an intelligent decision, I think a decision of who wants to have fewer complaints, not better service.
Request a rollback is a joke. They respond that there is not a service and they will in their opinion, it's only for emergencies. Clear to me that your emergency, they have nothing to do with mine and mine do not care because the only time I requested one, I was denied that the answer is not to correct errors. The error had not been me, for me it was an emergency and refused anyway.
When I was a victim of fraud, my ticket was ignored, I sent an abuse report and the person who did it went without any problems.
Mention the word search is a guarantee that you will be ignored by the "support team".
You send me an email when you need something ... be kind and send one when you make changes, that is also customer service. If you plan to do "random Holds" in cash outs to prevent fraud, let your customers know write an email. , is what any decent company would. And if you say that the money will be on hold for two days, make it real or let us know who will be on hold for more days, not say two days whether they will be more. Be eficient.
Want to know how to help? qualify your team, let your customers qualify your team on each ticket, put time limits for responses, make them work. It seems that you are paying a lot of people to paste written answers and they also take a lot of time to paste them. That is not customer service, that's an insult to the time and intelligence of your customers.
Want to help? help.
I guess it does not matter, but more than I want, I can not find a single reason to keep me as a premium member after this very poor customer service.
