Loyalty Department Latest Experience

In the past month I tested the Loyalty Dept experience on a weekend and was told it was a 45 minute wait by the customer service agent; thanked him for the heads up and said I would call back. As it was just a test, no big deal and I communicated to Simplisafe the details and the obvious reason(s) why this was no way acceptable.

Yesterday afternoon I called to test again.  The results were luckily the exact opposite of the previous experience.   The customer service agent picked up, told her I wanted to step down my monitoring plan, got transferred to the Loyalty dept, got Chris who asked for my safe word, moved on to the giving her the lower plan I wanted and advised me it "would take a minute or two" and then asked if I had encountered any technical issues", said no, and about 30 seconds later said "just want to confirm, you are switching from x to y, may I make the change".  I said please stop and advised her of my real intent.  She laughed and said I was her first "test" experience, I thanked her for her patience and hung up.

From first ring to hang up was less than 5 minutes.  .  Make every customer contact instance just like this (or better!) Simplisafe: nicely done

@StretchWerks  Not acceptable under any stretch of the imagination. Can  you share when you called, date and time?

@simplisafe_admin , it is essential you reply to this one and provide an explanation the how and why.  Bad enough to have a "loyalty" dept but worse if you start getting behavior anything even remotely to ADT.  Based on my first experience that started this thread, it could and did happen, confirmed in my testing and very concerning to appear it is still happening today.

For Senior Mgt, short and simple and in a NY minute: Stop the nonsense; if you can click to sign up be an industry leader and practice what you preach and institute click to cancel. And for customers like me concerned about security, issue a six + digit code and the opt-in that I have to call and provide that number if I want to change or cancel  monitoring.

This is not nuclear physics, We all know it could be implemented quickly. Hey, it's in the name. S-i-m-p-l-i'''

SimpliSafe_admin, awaiting your response.  And yes, I am back from my 10 day vacation and have missed the forums greatly.

Hey @mam623​ 

Due to a widespread internet outage that impacted much of the U.S. yesterday, some of our systems, including phone lines, experienced temporary service disruptions. As a result, you may have encountered longer wait times when trying to reach a live agent.

We’re truly sorry for the inconvenience this may have caused. The good news is that everything is now fully restored, and our Support and Loyalty teams are standing by, ready to assist with any questions or concerns you may have.
