What a fucked up week...

Firstly my car was broken into on Saturday night, the mofos stole my minidisc player and my mobile phone. plus my friends stuff too.

So I have to make a police report, get the window fixed on my car, find out about getting and alarm fitted, and then go to work on Sunday. I call my phone company on Sunday as well to report it stolen, and there's an automated thingy saying the office is closed.

So I report it stolen on Monday, and they say they will call me back. Tuesday. So yesterday no call, so I call them today. Now they tell me because I didn't report the phone stolen to them within 24hours of it happening, that I can't claim a new phone on my insurance. On top of that, I still have to pay for a sim card, since the incompetents can't even design a decent automated service(apparently there's an option to report the phone as lost on it, but it's not easy to find). What a load of shit! The operator seems to think it's my fauly for not reporting it in time.

I'm really pissed off at the moment. This a year has been a real struggle so far. I hope it doesn't last....

Call them back and ask to speak to a supervisor. CALMLY explain the problem to them. Tell them you did report it within 24 hours and were told someone would call you back and no one did on Tuesday.

I very rarely speak to operators when I have a problem with a product or service. I learned to go right to supervisors asap.

I went through all that today trying to stay calm on the phone. Gave them the full lowdown blah blah.

But no sympathy was forthcoming.

Got my insurance removed anyway. No point paying for something that's gonna screw me again after I've been screwed once.

Thanks for the advice anyway

I will say never leave valuables in the car etc etc , but I am sure you know that and the last thhing you need is some crap advice

which provider r u with ?

 

[Ask For More]

Vodaphone. I only left the car for about an hour, and it was parked around the corner from REgent street, so there's plenty of people around. I've been parking around there for well over a year, and I have a lot of friends who park around there too, and have never heard of a break in.

*sigh*

Vodaphone should be easy to get round - they dont want the bad publicity - I would pursue this write to top person saying you tried too call and report but only got an answer machine etc - be a pain in the arse withy them and you will get a result

was it pay as you go or contract ?

Agreed on the valuables Gord.

DON'T FEED THE BEARS!

I look at my truck as transportation, not an entertainment center/office/dining room/bathroom/cd storage case...
