Customer service is hard to come by these days, and it is definately something to be thankful for. <BR/><BR/>If you stop by my blog, check out the post before the Sunday scribbling. I had a week with my cars like the one you had with your cards, but it is over now (I hope) and for that I am grateful.Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08551060252979049053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26978160.post-3385041181649738482008-11-23T15:29:00.000-06:002008-11-23T15:29:00.000-06:00Well done, but wotta lotta hastle!

I don't blame the workers, I blame the companies for paying crap so that no one sticks around very long, and for the poor training. But boy, if I call and get someone who can actually understand my situation and help me, I feel like I've won the lotto!Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00653383372182667361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26978160.post-16299940251208034792008-11-21T09:52:00.000-06:002008-11-21T09:52:00.000-06:00Ray Jr., I'm impressed that you found things to be...Ray Jr., I'm impressed that you found things to be grateful for in this situation. The frequent flier miles and 0% interest will both come in handy too. It's amazing that a company actually admitted fault!
