Literally the worst airline in the world
Shocker
Sends me ticket with incorrect passenger name
I ring customer support and have to enter my reservation number three times as it's a voice recognition system and it mishears you and makes you go through each letter again and again
Then I press "3" for English. The customer service agent speaks very poor English and is tells me repeatedly that my ticket is correct and sends me out a faulty ticket, again. She eventually uses her eyes and sees that the ticket is incorrect. Doesn't apologise or admit her error.
Then I advise her the link that I am required to click in the email to enter "advanced passenger information" is not working and sends me to "manage my booking". She is so unfamiliar with her own company policies and process and her English is so poor that she has no idea what I am talking about. After repeating myself multiple times and slowing down, and her either asking me to repeat myself again or giving me incorrect information, I ask to speak to her supervisor. She acts all uppity and starts calling me "ma'am" and getting defensive "I'm the supervisor of this call". What's a "supervisor of a call"? She claims she has no other supervisor. All her responses are inaccurate - she keeps telling me she doesn't understand or confidently telling me to how to "check my booking" in garbled English or confidently directing me to the website and then is unable to tell me where to go. I ask her to look at the email she sent me to identify the link and she says "I can see the email MAAM", in a rude tone. I tell her to use her eyes (as she was equally insistent that my name was correct on the booking until she admitted it wasn't, once she looked correctly) and then turns out she was saying "I CAN'T see the email". So given her accent and the phone line, she should have said CAN NOT. How can a company not see the email that they are sending customers and a customer service agent not be familiar with its contents? From that point on, when she cannot understand me, rather than admitting her limitations, she simply calls me "Ma'am" in a sarcastic manner and confidently gives me the wrong answer or tells me to go to the website or confidently repeats some irrelevant comment about "checking your booking". It's the strategy of going on the offensive when you are feeling defensive.
When I ask if there is an office at the airport, she gets all offended and says "no! no!" in that same uppity tone. It's a total lie - they have a whole desk at the airport - but it's closed when I get there but I can go, tomorrow. She randomly tells me in an uppity defensive tone that if I want to talk to someone else I have to hang up and call back - and go through the voice recognition and be on hold for several minutes again. So it stops being about the customer and it's all about her ego, and me asking if there is somebody at the airport for me to speak to. She isn't the slightest bit concerned about me and my needs. She clearly self identities that she doesn't have the English language skills or company knowledge to know the responses to my question and is acting petulant instead of humble. When I advise her I am catching a bus to the airport soon and cannot call back, she just repeats it in an offhand dismissive way. I advise her again I cannot and she simply says she cannot (refuses to) help me and hangs up.
She could have put my call on hold and spoken to someone with better language skills and more competent at their knowledge of the company - but no, acting uppity and hanging up is her way.
I have another entitled millennial with me who thinks it is fine to treat customers that way and to be offhand, give false answers confidently, refuse to seek help, tell you to call back and go back in the queue, call you "Ma'am" and go on the offensive when you are unqualified for the job you are being paid for, or take a risk that you won't end up on a flight because you haven't obeyed their instructions and filled out the advanced passenger information. But it's not him that will miss his flight and be stranded in a foreign country ... read more
