I do worse (I'm bad, I know). A large Telco in Australia once charged me $800 in phone calls several years ago before the TIO and ACCC mandated SMS notifications when accounts go over a certain amount. I explained the situation to them, that I was a good customer, I'd just had my first child, could they shave off some of the bill as a goodwill gesture. Even $40. They didn't budge an inch. Over the next 6 years I've made a complaint about every single fault, bill error, outage and mistake they have made. Each time I've demanded compensation. I have a number of accounts with this Telco. I estimate that I've recovered $700 worth of compensation. I'll keep going till I get the entire amount back, then probably go on for another $100. Then I'll stop. And probably find alternative services and dump them completely. Don't piss off your customers. |
