Prove To Me You Exist



 Conversation with my bundled provider.  I changed their name out to just Cable.  I changed their number out too.  Besides what I put into parenthesis the rest is true to what was chatted between me and the Cable service bot/person.





Chris: Hi, I'm a live Cable product specialist. Would you like my help checking out?
Chris: Just type your question below.
You: streampix
You: why do i have it on my account?
Chris: Please wait while a secure chat connection is established.
Chris: With Streampix you will be able to access content with your iPad, iPod Touch, iPhone, through On Demand with your set top box, through cable and more.
You: i don't have an ipod or iphone
You: i don't need it and i'm not paying for something i didn't request
You: I was charged this month for it as an additional service. I want the money I was charged refund
Chris: Thank you for being our customer! I recommend calling our Customer Service Team. They've got all your account information and they also have the expertise to better assist you. That number is 1-555-5555.
You: calling now
Chris: Is there anything else that I can assist you with today?
You: not unless you can remove the charges
Chris: Our customer service team will be the best person who can assist you with that. ( so a whole team is made up of one person huh?)
You: have a nice day
Chris: Is there anything else that I can assist you with today?
You: nope
You: the office is closed
You: so i'm guessing you knew that
You: so no one is really willing to help me
Chris: I apologize, Our Customer Service team is available Monday through Saturday, 8 AM to 7 PM.
You: why didn't you tell me before?
Chris: I apologize.
You: am i talking to a computer program and not a real person?
Chris: I am a real person.
You: sounds like something a computer bot would say. okay prove to me that you exist
Chris: I apologize however, I can only answer questions about our services.
Chris: Is there anything else that I can assist you with today?
You: i'm sure if you really wanted to be of help you would be. however, given that you knew it was a Sunday and the fact that you knew the offices would be closed but still told me to call the number I have my doubts
Chris: I apologize you can just call our customer service tomorrow.
You: how about since they have my number they call me?
You: they always seem to call me when they want me to purchase a new service
You: this time they committed fraud by adding a service without my permission
Chris: I do understand how you feel. Is there anything else that I can assist you with today?
You: Sure you could get me some chinese take out
You: you asked
Chris: What questions can I answer for you about our products?
You: why would someone without apple products in their possession want streampix?
Chris: Our technical Chat Agents are the best group to help you with all of your technical and Account questions. I’m happy to walk you through the simple steps to connect to that group.
Chris: Are you ok with me sending you to the appropriate webpage to connect to that group?
You: no

Chris: Please click here to access the page.
Chris: Is there anything else that I can assist you with today?
You: yes
You: how do i go about preventing Cable from adding unauthorized additions to my account in the future
You: it is fraud you realize
You: btw the page you sent me to is of no help for the issue. i can see my bill, pay it of which i already did but I cannot make changes to it
You: but i think you already knew this
Chris: I suggest you to call our customer service tomorrow where they can better assist you with your concern.
You: so you aren't at all concerned about the fraudulent charges?
Chris: I apologize I don't have that information.
Chris: Is there anything else that I can assist you with today?
You: Yes plenty
Chris: I can only assist you in adding/upgrading services here online.
You: you can only add but you refuse to take away? how is that helpful? My service was horrible this week. I was without phone, internet and cable this week sporadically. Shouldn't I be given a credit?
