Description:
As customers, we all had our own love-hate moments with customer service. They’re the ones whom we bombard with questions and complaints, sometimes expletives even, when we’re unsatisfied with a product or a service. And when things are doing great and we’re happy with the product we purchased, we hardly acknowledge the guy behind the customer support desk. But then there are encounters with customer service that blow our minds. Stories that make us see customer service in a whole new light. Stories that make loyal customers out of random people. Stories that get passed on through generations. We’ve put together a list of legendary customer service stories, some of them from several years back—a testament that it’s stories like these that are remembered and shared over and over again.
