Bad Consumer Reviews Could Have Bad Results
 

The next time you feel you need to vent about your frustration about some web connected product or service, this result might need to taken into account:

All I know is, if I am ever given a "smart" heart pacemaker, I'm going to be inclined to give the manufacturer a really good review, no matter what...

Sometimes i am happy that those WLAN devices can still be turned off with one click, by me. :hmmm:

Am currently in the process of having a wireless home security system installed which can be controlled via an app on my iPhone.

Best be careful, would hate to be denied access to my own home :)

I would have thought that would only happen if you transgressed against the missus...

...or is the rolling pin still in style?... :D

^ Aye most fearsome and efficient security device ever known to man :)

I have never understood the attraction of such a system. From a practical viewpoint, how many times does one need access to the security system while not at the home?

They make keypads that will let selected people in only at specific times.

The problem I have with wireless systems is that the easier you make it accessible to the "good guys" the easier it is accessible by the "bad guys".

I can see where the business owner is coming from. Too often people go from 0 to total flaming jerk. At least give the business a chance to make good.

Never argue with thisun

How I wish my 2nd ex-wife used a rolling pin!
:doh:
She used this!

A rolling pin would have been foreplay!
:haha:

I have to agree. No matter what you do or how much you try there is just no pleasing some customers. We have a couple where I wish we could just go in with a cash refund, throw it down on their counter, rip out our equipment and say see ya later.

The story didn't say he didn't try to get help. He may have tried and couldn't get the help he needed. In frustration, he lashed out. The owner in turn, instead of trying to make it right, shut him down, and then made excuses.

The Shop motto of the past..

The customer is always right even if they are wrong.


Seems there is a new motto now..

The customer is a nitwit and we have the right to sell rubbish to that nitwit.

I think there is one indisputable undeniable fact here.

We don't know the whole story from both sides.

Maybe both sides are right?

I've only gone wireless because the previous system obviously wasn't and about five year ago when I had a new wooden floor laid, I noticed the next day the passive sensors weren't working and didn't have the heart to ask the floor layer to come and rip his work up for what was probably a 'pinched' wire/cable.

Jim, you're becoming a softie in you dotage... :03:

Then, again, if you had called him back to deal with the 'pinch', he might have adopted an 'American' stance and ripped up your floor because you had an issue with the way it affected your system... :D
