I agree. Hopefully it will be a "wake up call" for training reps and handling calls. THAT is when good customer service becomes "the norm".icepics wrote: I appreciate that when Helen reads of a problem she addresses it right away. I imagine most businesses have mistakes that happen, the best they can do is to take care of the issue promptly.

The person I spoke with was very rude and impatient, and the problem was never resolved to my satisfaction. It's the only time I've ever been hung up on. I was shocked because it wasn't a problem that I thought should be difficult to solve, and I was calm and pleasant. I have ordered from them only a few times since. There have been no problems, but they are my last resort when no one else has what I need in stock. I think most of the time their online ordering works just fine, but I would dread ever having to call them for any reason.

I would be pi$$ if hung up on! The company sounds like they need to focus on 100% customer service. I got hung up on by a ex years back in college
