My only blooper while I was a CSO happened while I wasn't even into my first week on the job yet.

A client (a VIP cardholder) called up asking for the available balance on his credit card. I told him that he only had less than a thousand pesos available. Of course he got really pi$$ed.

My booboo? I didn't notice that there was a "-" indicated beside the amount on the computer screen, which meant na he not only had the full credit limit of his card available to him, our company even owed him the almost one thousand pesos I mentioned earlier.

Needless to say, my supervisor had to come to my rescue and explain to the cardholder what just happened. And from then on, I really, really doublechecked the entires on my screen. :D

Citiphone CSA: thank you for calling Metrobank, this is #### how may I help you?

Client: ....??

Citiphone CSA: hello?

Client: ....uh... I think I have the wrong number.

For those working in the call center, I know that at some point o another, you've made some boo-boo's. Wanna share them so we all could have a good, healthy laugh?

bebe_girl702
Jul 4, 2003, 03:56 PM
these are some of the boo-boo's collected from the floor:

1. Sir, kindly state your first and last name starting off with your area code?

2. Sir, do you happen to remember your first name, please?

3. Agent: So how long the camera?

4. Ma'am, please turn off all electrical appliances within the vicinity of your modem. This might be causing the interference.

5. Customer: So what do I do now?
Agent: Click on the OK button, and now let's keep our fingers crossed....

6. Customer: So are you a boy or a girl?
Agent: Well, let's just say a little bit of both....(Nyah!)

7. Sir, let us not tamper with the Safe mode. It was placed there for a purpose!

8. Customer: Mr. Stanley just stepped out of the house. This is his wife.
Agent: Can you ask him to step back in again, ma'am?

9. Customer: So do I turn the camera over?
Agent: Yes, sir. You would have to turn yourself over. Right, Sir.

:D :D :D :D :D

I started out as an agent...

One of my most memorable boo-boo's was recorded and audited by the Q.M. of my former workplace

ONSITE TECH: the customer is not with me right now, but i called in his behalf for a system exchange.

ME: oh okay... would you know if he opened the chassis?

ONSTE TECH: i don't think so... but uh, yeah.. i don't hink he even used it yet. it just came in and it's not working and stuff, y'know?

ME: alright.. so you mean that the system is virtually virginal..uhh. ummm.. i mean, it's still untouched?!!

:P

grabe, tawa nang tawa buong team namin pati Team Leader ko nun.

haaay.. those were the days

From the floor of an outbound program...

customer: I can't do this right now, just call me back ok?

agent: sure sir, I'll text you back

--------

customer: So you're telling me that there's no way I can monitor the minutes I use up?

agent: just look at the clock every time you call!

-------

an agent who wasn't feeling well was sleeping, and was unable to send the disposition of her last call before she fell asleep. her team buddy saw her and called out, '(agent's name)!, send dispo!'

the agent then immediately sent the disposition and went back to sleep. As soon as the next call came in, the agent is startled from her sleep and says "SEND DISPO!"

lemme guess... you are jobless and have failed numerous attempts at getting in each and every call center, huh?

if you are employed, you are unhappy and are paid very very low.

judging from your posts, you are not that educated. hence, you are not qualified to be employed in a good company nor in a good position.

especially yuor choice of words.

you can say whatever you want, but your personality and level of education shows in your posts and in the intensity in which they were written.

you can claim employment and good standing, but you've already brought your own ruin.

get a job.

excuse me po, pero medyo nakaka-offend naman po ang post nyo.

i'm not a call center agent but i do feel for these people. they are working so hard just to earn a decent living. the last thing they need is being ridiculed by someone like you, who, i think, doesn't even have an idea on what their job really is. what made you think that they just answer the phone like what your maids do? think again. :)

siguro kung 'yan lang ang ginagawa mo... for me, call center work is very challenging... lalo na if you're doing outbound calls for a really big company and also kung nasa B2B ka...

you need to be very creative to do good in a call center...

grabe. sobrang natawa ako sa mga bloopers!

TSR : Ok. Since this may take around 30 minutes, is it okay if I kill you later?

NYAAAA!!!

ME : As soon as your computer boots up, press F2.

Customer : Which F2? the one on the screen or the one on the keyboard?

:bop:

ME : May I have the service tag please?

Chinese/Korean Customer : Ok the service tag is 1-B-S-R-"Yi"

ME : Ok. So That's number 1. And then B as in Bravo. S as in Sierra. R as in Romeo and is the last character a number three??

Customer : No! No! That is Letter Yi!

ME : Uhh .. ok. Is that a Letter C? As in Charlie? Or Cat?

Customer : No! No! Letter Yi! Like Yu! Yu!

ME : Letter T? Like Tree? Or Two??

Customer : No! No! Letter Yi! YI!!!! Like Yu! You know, with the animals!

ME : OHHHHH!!! A LETTER Z!!! AS IN ZOO! With the animals!!

Customer : YES YES!! You got it!

HAHAHAHAHAHA :lol: and that took around 5 minutes.

The whole call took a few hours, because we had to perform the usual format and reinstall routine. He was one of the nicest people I've spoken to. *okay* I would rather have a thousand calls just like that rather than one call from an irate customer. :ayaw:

I'm not working at a call center now, pero nakakamiss rin :)

Read this article from the Philippine Star:

Not a very good way to promote investments in our country.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

DEMAND AND SUPPLY By Boo Chanco
The Philippine Star 09/13/2004

Another reader e-mailed me this example of a very Filipino way of attracting investors and keeping them here.

"Another bad event for the Government that is well known within the foreign investor community is the raid on Cyber City Telecommunications on Clark Airfield. NBI agents raided the call center and executive offices because they received a report from a disgruntled employee that they were pirating software.

The NBI agents came in a gunpoint and shut the company down for at least four hours. The call center received thousands of phone calls that went unanswered. In the end nothing illegal was found to have occurred and the company lost millions in revenue and must now repair their lost reputation to their clients. This sent chills through the local ex-pat business community. "

The first call that I made during my first day on the floor was really funny. I was so nervous to make that call. And it took me like 10 minutes befor I logged on the phone. Then the first customer was on the line. The conversation went like this.

me: good morning this _____ from ______ may I speak with Mrs. Samantha Tan?

cust: this is "she"

me: oh hi Mrs. "Shi", may i speak with Mrs. Tan?

cust: this is "she"

me: yes I know Mrs. "Shi", but I need to speak with Mrs. Tan, is she there?

cust: I said, this "she"

and still I insisted on looking for Mrs Tan until the lady on the other line hanged up. I was thinking what's wrong with that person?. Then suddenly, I realized that she was actually telling me that she is Mrs. Tan! I burst into laughter upon realization of my stupidity. Until now it still makes me laugh everytime I hear "this is she"

when receiving a dead air call (meaning there's no response coming from the other line.. whatever) .. we'd have to say our spiel 3x.. and if still there's no response... we have to tell the caller to call back again..

here's what i said... (after 3 spiels... )

"if you are trying to speak to me, i cannot seem hear your voice. please call us back again and i would have to HANG YOU UP*. thank you for calling __________ and have a good day!"

*meaning 'to release the call'

=) kamote! haha

Binigay ng sister nya yung PC sa kanya, must have installed some earthlink software dun kaya yung title bar ng IE may nakasulat na ".... IE provided by Earthlink...". Wala lang, what a weird way to end my stint sa voice support :D

This has got to be one of the funniest things I've heard of in a long time. I think this guy should have
been promoted, not fired.

This is a true story from the "WordPerfect Helpline" which was transcribed
from a recording monitoring the customer care department. Needless to say, the Help Desk employee was fired; however, he is currently suing the WordPerfect organization for "Termination without Cause." This is the actual dialogue of a former WordPerfect Customer Support employee. (Now I know why they record these conversations).

"Rich Hall computer assistance; may I help you?"

"Yes, well, I'm having trouble with WordPerfect."

"What sort of trouble?"

"Well, I was just typing along, and all of a sudden the words went away."

"Went away?"

"They disappeared."

"Hmmm. So what does your screen look like now?"

"Nothing."

"Nothing?"

"It's a blank; it won't accept anything when I type."

"Are you still in WordPerfect, or did you get out?"

"How do I tell?"

"Can you see the C: prompt on the screen?"

"What's a sea-prompt?"

"Never mind, can you move your cursor around the screen?"

"There isn't any cursor: I told you, it won't accept anything I type."

"Does your monitor have a power indicator?"

"What's a monitor?"

"It's the thing with the screen on it that looks like a TV. Does it have a little light that tells you when
it's on?"

"I don't know."

"Well, then look on the back of the monitor and find where the power cord goes into it. Can you
see that?"

"Yes, I think so."

"Great. Follow the cord to the plug, and tell me if it's plugged into the wall."

"Yes, it is."

"When you were behind the monitor, did you notice that there were two cables plugged into the
back of it, not just one?"

"No."

"Well, there are. I need you to look back there again and find the other cable."

"Okay, here it is."

"Follow it for me, and tell me if it's plugged securely into the back of your computer."

"I can't reach."

"Uh huh. Well, can you see if it is?"

"No."

"Even if you maybe put your knee on something and lean way over?"

"Oh, it's not because I don't have the right angle it's because it's dark."

"Dark?"

"Yes - the office light is off, and the only light I have is coming in from the window."

"Well, turn on the office light then."

"I can't."

"No? Why not?"

"Because there's a power failure."

"A power...a power failure?... Aha, Okay, we've got it licked now. Do you still have the boxes and
manuals and packing stuff your computer came in?"

"Well, yes, I keep them in the closet."

"Good. Go get them, and unplug your system and pack it up just like it was when you got it. Then
take it back to the store you bought it from."

"Really? Is it that bad?"

"Yes, I'm afraid it is."

"Well, all right then, I suppose. What do I tell them?"

"Tell them you're too damn stupid to own a computer."

Got this from email

I had been doing Tech Support for Hewlett-Packard's DeskJet division for about a month when I had a customer call with a problem I just couldn't solve. She couldnot print yellow. All the other colors would print fine, which truly baffled me because the only true colors are cyan, magenta, and yellow. For instance, green is a combination of cyan and yellow, but green printed fine. Every color of the rainbow printed fine except for yellow. I had the customer change ink cartridges.I had the customer delete and reinstall the drivers. Nothing worked. I asked my coworkers for help; they offered no new ideas. After over two hours of troubleshooting,I was about to tell the customer to send the printer in to us for repair when sheasked quietly, "Should I try printing on a piece of white paper instead of this yellow paper?"

here's mine and a few from our account...

mine: super taranta and inis nko sa consumer/caller kasi we've been talking for almost 30 minutes and grabe, he was born 1916...so hindi na kami magkaintindihan...sa inis ko nasabi ko, "WAIT LANG SIR!!!" with the accent and everything...and he was like? "what????"

i really dunno if it's okay to laugh with the consumer on the phone but i really wasn't able to control myself because the consumer was disputing his current employment and that he works for ______ corporation DRIVERS and what's on his file was _______ DIAPERS...so we ended up just laughing...

friend: customer was saying something and guess it was right so my fellow csr said in a clear and loud voice "OPO!!"...

csr: "okay sir, with that matter i would have to transfer you to a SPECIAL AGENT"...parang special child eh...

friend: "okay ma'm, can i hold you for a minute?"
cons: "yes, by all means, you can hold me..."

gracey_12
Dec 15, 2004, 10:21 AM

cons:"4335555555"

janice:"thank you, now may i please verify your full name and the last digit of your last full social security number"

and the consumer was like "what the hell are you saying?"

Dec 15, 2004, 10:32 AM

me:" welcome to e******, my name's ALLY, may i please verify your confirmation number?"

cons: "what did u say ur name was? alien?"

me:"no sir, it's ally..."

cons:"ok, it's allen and not alien"

me:akala ko na-press ko *** mute "put*, bingi!"

cons: "what did u say? i don't understand. now you're talking alien, alien"

kung pwede lang magrelease ng call ginawa ko na"




sa batchmate ko...

vince:"welcome to e******, this is vince, may i please verify your confirmation number?"

dito po sa amin allowed kami sabihin... ang saya nga pag alam nilang nasa pinas kami kc minsan nakaka relate sila lalo na if nakarating na sila dito. pero from where i came from bawal. i like it better if the client knows that i'm a filipina and i'm in the philippines kc nde ka umiiwas sa tanong na where are you located and how's the weather there hehehe at least d ka magkakamali. minsan nga tuwa pa sila if nalaman nilang taga dito ang support ng devices nila :) based on my experience they actually like talking to asians coz we're friendlier and more accomodating daw :) cheers to the filipino cc agents!!!

received this in my email

Take heart, anyone among you who believes you are
technologically
challenged, you "ain't seen nuthin' yet". This is an
excerpt from a Wall
Street Journal article:

1. Compaq is considering changing the command "Press
Any Key" to "Press
Return Key" because of the flood of calls asking where
the "Any" key is.

2. AST technical support had a caller complaining
that her mouse was
hard to control with the dust cover on. The cover
turned out to be the
plastic bag the mouse was packaged in.

3. Another Dell customer called to say he couldn't get
his computer to
fax anything.
After 40 minutes of troubleshooting, the technician
discovered the man
was trying to fax a piece of paper- by holding it in
front of the monitor
screen - and hitting the, "Send" key.

4. Yet another, Dell customer called to comp! lain
that his keyboard no
longer worked.
He had cleaned it by filling up his tub with soap
and water and soaking
the keyboard for a day, then removing all the keys and
washing them
individually.

5. A Dell technician received a call from a
customer who was enraged
because his computer had told him he was "Bad and an
invalid."
The tech explained that the computer's "bad"
command and "invalid"
responses ... shouldn't be taken personally.

6. A confused caller to IBM was having trouble
printing documents. He
told the technician that the computer had said it
"couldn't find printer."
The
user had also tried turning the computer screen to
face the printer -
but
that his computer still couldn't "see" the printer.

7. An exasperated caller to Dell Computer Tech
Support couldn't get her
new Dell Computer to turn on.
After ensuring the computer w as plugged in, the
technician asked her
what happened when she pushed the power button. ! Her
response, "I pushed
and pushed on this foot pedal and nothing h happens."
The "foot pedal"
turned out to be the computer's mouse..


8. Another customer called Compaq tech support to
say her brand new
computer wouldn't work.
She said she unpacked the unit, plugged it in and
sat there for 20
minutes waiting for something to happen.
When asked what happened when she pressed the power
switch, she asked,
"What power switch?"

9. Another IBM customer had trouble installing
software and rang for
support.... "I put in the first disk, and that was OK.
It said to put in
the second disk, and had some problems with the disk.
When it said to put
in the third disk, I couldn't even fit it in.
" The user hadn't realized that "Insert Disk 2"
implied to remove Disk
1 first.

10. A story from a Novell Net Wire SysOp:

CALLER: "Hello, is this Tech Support?"
TECH: "Yes, it is. How may I help you?"
CALLER: "The cup holder on my PC is broken - and I
am within my
warranty period. How do I go about getting that
fixed?"
TECH: "I'm sorry, but did you say a cup holder?"
CALLER: "Yes, it's attached to the front of my
computer."
TECH: "Please excuse me. If I seem a bit stumped,
it's because I am.
Did you receive this as part of a promotional at a
trade show? How did you
get
this cup holder? Does it have any trademark on it?"
CALLER: "It came with my computer. I don't know
anything about a
promotional... It just has '4X' on it." At this point,
the Tech Rep had to
mute the caller because he couldn't stand it. He was
laughing too hard.
The caller had been using the load drawer of the
CD-ROM drive as a cup
holder and snapped it off the drive.

11. A woman called the Canon help desk with a
problem with her printer.
The tech asked her if she was "running it under
windows." The woman
responded, "No, my desk is next to the door. But that
is a good point. The
man sitting in the cubicle next to me is under a
window and his printer is
working fine."

12. And last but not least:

TECH SUPPORT: "O.K. Bob, let's press the control
and escape keys at the
same time. That brings up a task list in the middle of
the screen. Now
type the letter "P" to bring up the Program Manager."
CUSTOMER: "I don't have a 'P' ".
TECH SUPPORT: "On your keyboard, Bob."
CUSTOMER: "What do you mean?"
TECH SUPPORT: " 'P' on your keyboard, Bob."
CUSTOMER: "I ain't gonna to do that!"

software and rang for
support.... "I put in the first disk, and that was OK.
It said to put in
the second disk, and had some problems with the disk.
When it said to put
in the third disk, I couldn't even fit it in.
" The user hadn't realized that "Insert Disk 2"
implied to remove Disk
1 first.


hindi naman kapanipaniwala ito...
paano makakarating sa 3rd disc yung installation kung sa 2nd disc may problema na? (i.e., hindi nya tinanggal yung 1st disc)

(to the another agent) Psst! Tinawagan mo na ba 'tong customer na 'to, si Noel? Sabi may tumawag na daw sa kanya, pero wala naman log dito.

other tsr: oo, tinawagan ko na yan. kakatapos ko lang ng log, baka ngayon lang pumasok.

ANG SAYA NG THREAD NA ITO!

ito narinig ko lang sa trainor ko, pero narinig ko din sa ibang agents on the floor.

technical support for desktop computers, old lady ang customer, tungkol sa optical mouse niya...

CUSTOMER: my mouse is not working, it doesn't have a "ball."
TECH: your mouse is an optical mouse, that's why it does not have a ball.
CUSTOMER: no! you don't understand, my mouse is not working, it does not have a "ball."
(old lady could not understand what an optical mouse is so the tech spent about 30 minutes on her just trying to explain why her mouse does not have a "ball.")
TECH: ma'am, may i place you on hold for a minute to...
(TECH places the customer on hold, then takes a deep breath out of frustration, then goes back to the customer)
TECH: thank you for holding ma'am, the reason your mouse does not have a "ball" is your mouse is a FEMALE mouse. Since it's a FEMALE mouse, it's a SUPERIOR mouse. It does not need to have a "ball."
CUSTOMER: oh! i understand now. well why didn't you say so right away!? ...

one satisfied customer na naman :lol:

heto pa isa:

for a telephone company account:

my team mate provisioned the order of the customer and just summarized what had been done to the account. before hanging up and giving the closing spiel, he asked...

AGENT: do you have any questions before i FINISH you?

tawa kami nang tawa dito nang marinig namin ito, pati sya nagulat ng marinig niya ito lumabas sa mouth niya...tawa din sya eh.pati yung customer niya natawa din! nyehehehe :bop:

Hehe ako naman.

I was in an outbound acct before. I already made the sale and I was just verifying the info. We were calling golf courses in the states.

Me: Ok sir how many holes do u have? (dapat how many holes does your course have)
Client: Hahaha. Well I have 5 in my face and shall I start counting? (nakisakay ba)

Simula nun, I ask nalang "Is this an 18 hole golf course?" para nde na magkamali. Hehehe.

Regarding Filipino clients, yeah it's funny. I was talking to someone and the moment I said his last name (Bautista) he asked me to repeat it. So I said Bautista. Apparently, Americans announce it as BATISTA. So he asked me if I was a Filipino and I said yes. Sabi nya "kaya pala bautista ka ng bautista eh. hahaha. so anong kalokohan to?" So I still said my spiel. Sabi nya "sige tutal pinoy ka naman eh" and made the sale.:)

just wanna share funny moments over the phone:

cust calling on how to setup VoIP.. (issue is unsupported.. BEYOND OUR SCOPE OF SUPPORT-- we are supporting DSL ISP Acct)

cust: are you familiar with lingo VOIP setting? ive been trying to connect this and hopefully contact my relatives and family from other country.
me: ohh lingo? you mean like sunday?
(i intentionally did it coz ive got his feeling that the cust is pinoy! basing from his accent)
cust: so you are a filipina? ahah!
me: i just giggled.. hahaha!
cust: (speaking in tagalog) lam mo balak ko magtayo ng callcenter sa pinas.. kaya ko pinagaaralan etong VOIP, pag nagsetup ako kukunin kita ha...

we ended up talking about how he misses the philippines... still a good call though i referred him to OEM, or lingo support site.

================================

me: said my opening spiel...
cust: ive been having this problem, my computer is not connecting to the internet
me: oh ill be more than happy to assist you sir, i would just need to ask you a couple of questions to further isolate the issue.
cust: go ahead..
me: when was the last time were you able to connect? were there any changes on your comp recently?
cust: (having a hard time explaining the issue) hmmm.. i just can not connect, kasi naman etong anak ko eh..
me: (having an idea that the cust is pinoy) ohh ok.. what did your kid do the last time he accessed the internet or used the computer?
cust: (acting so amazed! that i was able to understand the last few words he said) pinay ka noh???
me: hihihihih! go ahead sir, you can explain it in tagalog..
(during troubleshooting.. cust eagerly and persuasively tempts me to speak tagalog)
me: im sorry sir but as much as i would love to speak tagalog, i cant! we are not allowed to speak in our own native language.
cust: bahala ka! masarap magtagalog...
me: honga! i know but we still can not... (we both giggled and laughed, after realizing that i said HONGA!)

this one, got this from reader's digest. hindi siya call-center pero related siya.

A couple of phones were ringing in an eye clinic,.
She picked up one and she said "Take it out, rinse it and put it back on" after talking to the person on the other line.
She was met with dead silence and then the person on the other line mustered enough confidence to say "I think I'll get another opinion".
Then the receptionist realized that the person was asking about bloodshot eyes and not contact lenses. Haha

Customer: Do I click on the delete button?

Pinoynetwit[inaantok and drifting into a dream state/Rapid Eye Movement sleep ]: OO!

Buti na lang binigkas ko yung "oo" with an American twang kaya di nahalata nung customer!

on another story:

Maaaaliiiigaaaayaaaaang passkow! - from an American customer who knew that my account was outsourced to the Philippines. whenever I get customers who complain about jobs being outsourced to the Philippines I always tell them that tech support is labor and time intensive since customers and tech reps need to be on the "same page". After that they clam-up and appreciate the fact that I can stay with customers for one and a half -hour and remain polite inspite of their idiocy.

Meron akong narinig na call from of the tech support accounts sa amin. Tapos ang QA tawa ng tawa. BAKIT?

Ganito mag spell out si agent

V as in victory
I as in India
D as in Davao (talagang walang tigil si agent sa tagalog niya or di man lamang natigilan)

Customer: Huh? What's that?

Agent: Sir it's a city here!

eto pa....

After mag kwento ni customer eto naman si agent nag comment...

Agent: "Sir! you have a nice voice and it sounds like rudy hatfield!

Customer (laughing at the comment) sabay banat "Who's he?"

Agent: Basketball player Sir!

I've heard of an agent before who was pretty good at baffling the customers with his spelling. Maybe this is due to the fact that he actually came from a seminary. For example:
P as in Psalm
E as in Eucharist
I for Immaculate Conception
