Fun with Sprint customer service...

I just have to share this! Here's what I posted to Sprint customer service this morning after a maddening hour. It was posted through an online form, which of course, didn't have the proper categories for my rant.


=======================
Customer Name: Joseph Ebel
Sprint PCS Phone Number: 828-xxx-xxxx
Form: Ask A Question-Manage
Topic: Other
=======================
Question: No question, just a comment: Your new challenge questions on the website (while creating a new account for the new billing system) are completely screwed up. It was only when I changed 'NEVER' to 'EVER' that I was able to correclty answer them, and some of the choices were so badly mangled that I could only wildly guess at their meaning, e.g., '2 Nd King' meant '45 King'. Some questions asked about a vehicle I owned 10 years ago!!! Please, let's get some sanity in the process!! It was only through persistence and shear luck that I made it through (on the fourth pass).

Joe Ebel
=====================

And now, here's the response (emphasis added by me):


Dear Joseph Ebel,

Thank you for contacting Sprint.

Ya think this is an automated response, or does Cynthia B. have a wicked sense of humor?

Well, all I can say is 'motivate this!!!...'
