Funny: Computer Tech Support Calls
These “silly tech support calls” have been around in e-mails and online since the dawn of tech support. They are always fun to read. Here’s a list my sister sent me that I hadn’t seen yet. Blogging e-mail funnies may be a bit out of character for my blog, but it is Friday and I’m in the mood for a good laugh. How ‘bout you?
Customer: Hi, this is Celine. I can't get my diskette out.
Tech support: Have you tried pushing the Button?
Customer: Yes, sure, it's really stuck.
Tech support: That doesn't sound good; I'll make a note.
Customer: No, wait a minute... I hadn't inserted it yet... it's still on my desk... sorry....
Tech support: What kind of computer do you have?
Female customer: A white one...
Tech support: Click on the 'my computer' icon on to the left of the screen.
Customer: Your left or my left?
Tech support: Good day. How may I help you?
Male customer: Hello... I can't print.
Tech support: Would you click on "start" for me and...
Customer: Listen pal; don't start getting technical on me! I'm not Bill Gates.
Customer: Hi, good afternoon, this is Martha, I can't print. Every time I try, it says 'Can't find printer'. I've even lifted the printer and placed it in front of the monitor, but the computer still says he can't find it...
Customer: I have problems printing in red...
Tech support: Do you have a color printer?
Customer: Aaaah....................thank you.
Tech support: What's on your monitor now, ma'am?
Customer: A teddy bear my boyfriend bought for me at the 7-11.
Customer: My keyboard is not working anymore.
Tech support: Are you sure it's plugged into the computer?
Customer: No. I can't get behind the computer.
Tech support: Pick up your keyboard and walk 10 paces back
Customer: OK
Tech support: Did the keyboard come with you?
Customer: Yes
Tech support: That means the keyboard is not plugged in. Is there another keyboard?
Customer: Yes, there's another one here. Ah...that one does work...
Tech support: Your password is the small letter "a" as in apple, a capital letter V as in Victor, the number 7.
Customer: Is that 7 in capital letters?
Customer: I can't get on the Internet.
Tech support: Are you sure you used the right password?
Customer: Yes, I'm sure. I saw my colleague do it.
Tech support: Can you tell me what the password was?
Customer: Five stars.
Tech support: What anti-virus program do you use?
Customer: Netscape.
Tech support: That's not an anti-virus program.
Customer: Oh, sorry...Internet Explorer.
Customer: I have a huge problem. A friend has placed a screen saver on my computer, but every time I move the mouse, it disappears.
Tech support: How may I help you?
Customer: I'm writing my first e-mail.
Tech support: OK, and what seems to be the problem?
Customer: Well, I have the letter 'a' in the address, but how do I get the circle around it?
A woman customer called the Canon help desk with a problem with her printer.
Tech support: Are you running it under windows?
Customer: "No, my desk is next to the door, but that is a good point. The man sitting in the cubicle next to me is under a window, and his printer is working fine."
And last but not least...
Tech support: "Okay Bob, let's press the control and escape keys at the same time. That brings up a task list in the middle of the screen. Now type the letter "P" to bring up the Program Manager"
Customer: I don't have a P.
Tech support: On your keyboard, Bob.
Customer: What do you mean?
Tech support: "P".....on your keyboard, Bob.
Customer: I'M NOT GOING TO DO THAT!

Harry, I want you to know how much I appreciate all the help you gave me but also for the kind of person you are. You were able to fix my computer and email after I had spent hours and several days with other technicians who were not able to fix it. Although it was not a simple job for you, you stayed with it until you had solved the problem. You are extremely competent and determined. I am sure if you had not taken on the problem of fixing it for me, it would not have been done I called you Thursday AM and YOU were able to fix it. I think WORLD TECH SUPPORT is the best online computer support org. As a person you are in a class by yourself. You care about helping people which results in your going over and beyond what most people would do. Not only do you help but you are kind and considerate—and patient. You are really one fantastic person---one in a million. I will never forget you and what you did in regard to the computer/email problem. Thanks. I do not have words to express my appreciation for what you did and who you are." - BenAnonymous

Great article, thanks! Customer service is probably one of the most underrated things in this world - truly a dying art. I have come across a website which allows me to receive the customer service I deserve. By writing reports about my Suppliers, and allowing them to respond to me regarding the matter at hand, http://hellopeter.com/ has helped restore my faith in customer service.Anonymous

Hahahahahah great one...... Well apart these if one is calling you as being some xyz brands and assure you fixing your computer then probably its not a legitimate company. As no company calls you. Customers have to call for getting fixes. How would any company get to know about what you system is going through. <a href="www.crunchbase.com/.../sunrise-pc-support">Sunrise Pc Support</a>Anonymous
