Hi Mrs. Frazier
You
Hello
Abigail
Thank you for contacting AT&T Internet Services. How may I help you?
You
I need assistance adding my son as an authorized user on my att internet account
Abigail
We value you as our customer and I would like to assure you that I will try my best to resolve your issue.
You
ok thank you
Abigail
I will do my best to resolve this issue for you. Let me repeat what your said, you want to create he sub account for your son. Am I correct?
You
Well, here's the problem. I am out of town and he is trying to resolve a repair issue with our internet connection. I spoke to a rep yesterday and there is a problem with the lines. My son is unable to do anything about exchanging the modem and having the repairs if he is not an authorized person on the account
Abigail
Okay. Thank you.
Abigail
Please let me know the DSL telephone number.
You
065-**9-****
Abigail
Mrs. Frazier , if you want I can escalate the issue to the line Department.
You
Well, I think that was supposed to already be taken care of. I chatted with someone here yesterday and they did a line test and determined it was the line then said they would run more tests and I gave them my son's phone number to call about it. Do you know the status of this repair?
Abigail
Okay. May I ask you the security question for the verification?
You
I don't know a security question. He gave me a reference number of wtxy****5621
Abigail
Who is your favorite singer?
You
Oh you mean on my account? I answered the question about favorite author and said ________
You
I also answered some question with _______. I can't remember the question
Abigail
I am sorry that is the incorrect answer.
Abigail
The question is who is your favorite singer?
You
I have no idea what you are talking about. I didn't answer the favorite singer question, I answered the others I just mentioned. I recorded the answers for this very reason.
Abigail
Mrs. Frazier , this is the question associated with your account.
You
I understand what you are saying, but there were several questions to choose from and I didn't choose "favorite singer"
Abigail
Mrs. Frazier, I understand your concern however If you want I can create a trouble ticket for your connection.
You
Here's what I need. One, I need for my son to be authorized to exchange or return the modem that is apparently not working and to allow any repairs to be made to the lines coming into our house. Two, I need to know if there is a repair already in process for our account!
You
Please, I am in Belgium and I cannot do anything more from here.
Abigail
Mrs. Frazier, I understand your concern however in this regard I would request you to call us on our voice department at 1-877-722-3755 and ask for the Orders Department.
Abigail
They are available in business hours 0700-1900 hours (Monday-Friday).
You
This is not helping me
Abigail
I understand however the Orders Department is the concerned department.
You
For what?
Abigail
Mrs. Frazier , they will help you with 1. exchange of the modem, 2. As you are unable to provide me the correct answer, they will help you with your repair status.
You
Unbelievable! I know for a fact the answers I provided are correct as I do not have a favorite singer so therefore I couldn't have possibly answered that question. This has not been helpful and I am very frustrated
You
And by the way, we have more than one att account. My son is the one who may or may not have answered the questions on our OTHER account, but on THIS account that I am referring to, I answered the questions!
Abigail
Mrs. Frazier, I can understand why you feel frustrated. I would feel the same way if I were in your situation however without verifying the security question I won't be able to provide your information regarding the account details.
You
Are you looking at the right account? I have a wireless phone account in Louisiana and a completely separate internet account in Texas. I am only talking about the Texas internet account.
Abigail
I would request you to call us on our Voice Department at 1-87-722-3755 and ask for the ASI (Line Department).
You
And what are they going to do?
Abigail
Yes, I am on the same account and this is the only security question I can see in your account.
You
Okay, I have no idea what to do because I assume at this point, even I can't do anything about it since apparently the security answer is one I can NEVER provide.
You
Is there no other possible way I can prove this is my account?!!!!!
Abigail
Please don't worry.
Abigail
Mrs. Frazier, if you want I can create an other ticket.
You
What do you mean?
Abigail
I will escalate the case to the Line Department.
You
I think that's what you said about 15 minutes ago so go ahead. I will say this has been one waste of both our time
Abigail
Mrs. Frazier, as a technical support agent I can only help you with this. For further resolution I would request you to contact the concerned department.
You
Whatever
Abigail
Is there anything else that I may assist you with today?
You
Yes, you can transfer me to the correct "concerned department" please
Abigail
I am sorry Mrs. Frazier ,there is no chat support for the departments. I would request you to call the department.
You
Well, again I am in Belgium and it is 10:30 pm here. I look forward to starting this whole thing over again tomorrow with someone else at whatever the phone rates are.
Abigail
Thank you.
Your session has ended.
Well, there you have it. One hour wasted and nothing resolved from afar. By the way, I logged onto my account after this chat session and Dr. Seuss and Canada are the correct answers for the security questions on my account. I guess I will never be able to convince Abigail of this.
I don't know how, but this posted over your other posts. It's weird. Maybe it's just my computer? Anyway- couldn't read all of the chat. What a fiasco! Ross was ready to strangle somebody here, too!
ReplyDeleteOh good! It's all fixed. Was finally able to read it all! Pretty ridiculous. And it still isn't resolved, am I right?
