So impressed with Apple
Mommy has an iPhone. Â About three weeks ago, she started having problems with it, and so Abi went with Mommy & Daddy to have it fixed at the Apple store. Â (Hey, I had to tie this post to Abi somehow.) Â Anyhow, the tech support person told Mommy that there were hardware problems with her iPhone and that she needed to get a new one. Â So Mommy paid about $200 and go a new iPhone. Â Well, the problems did not go away . . . in fact, they potentially got more serious. Â So, the next weekend, Abi went with Mommy & Daddy back to the store. Â They were told that the operating system had bugs in it, and that downloading the new version would solve these problems. Â Mommy then asked why she was told to buy a new iPhone the week before, since it had the same problems, and could hav been fixed by downloading the updated software. Â Well, folks, guess what happened next? Â Based on Mommy’s experience at other stores, she would have expected the tech support person to get defensive, to mumble some techno-speek about hardware problems . . . but no. Â The tech support person went to get his manager who refunded Mommy’s $200 and let her keep the new iPhone too. Â This company understands good customer service & brand loyalty.
I agree – have had the same positive experience. I think there is a lesson in that for all of us. Say “yes” when you can and “no” when you have to.
