American Version of 2ch - Joi Ito's Web

最近BoingBoingのCoryがExpediaでのいやな経験の話をブロッグしました。そのあとかなりDiscussionが盛り上がって途中からExpediaの社員の言い合いになってしまいました。よく2chでありますよね。このPublicな場で匿名で内部の人が色々言い合うのって面白い現象ですね。

I will never ever look at Expedia the same way....I work for them. I am a Supervisor at Expedia. I still work for this company and they burn people everyday. In order to make money we charge stupid fees and no one cares for the customer. They give you cases to make you wait for nothing. In the end we keep your money. Cases sit in queues for weeks, and all agents are trained to give you the runaround. The managers and director are paid to sit in meetings on wednesdays and do nothing to help. They often talk of other call centers doing better in calls, they only care about calls answered not helping the customer. Managers do nothing, answer no calls, and render no solutions. The director is a fat guy who scratches his back on doors and brags about his chili beans! The company is a joke. They sell rooms when the hotels are over booked and will use any excuse in the book to not refund you. All supervisors are no help, we are purposely paid to send calls to other agents posing as supervisors, they call themselves customer care. Our customer advocate team is a joke, all day they email each other and do not resolve cases....but I need the money so I stay....sad but true. Expedia is a joke, please use travelocity.

I am an OSR agent for Expedia.com and have to admit. I have to say I am ticked that Expedia's employees are here bad mouthing. Expedia does not do anything illegal.
If the customer is not willing to read the rules and still books the reservation they are totally responsible for the bill.

Honestly, there are way too many people out there that should not use the computer. It would make our jobs easier.
