BPL Support Issues

At least you're getting your monies worth.

"All along, I had been thinking that BPL was a commercial outfit that was professionally run."

Have you been wrong.

But help is around the corner.

Ken, I'm past that. RJ is the point man now.

It must be snowing in Bozeman.

Past what?

Try the link and see what you get. Someone has to go first. Tag. you're it.

Ken, as I said, I'm way past that. I've been to the support portal thingy. It kept trying to assign me some new support number and then ask where it hurts. That means that every bit of my dialog with them since May is gone up in smoke. That's not what is so surprising. What surprises me is the lack of backup files. Geez, this is the 21st century. I've had backup files for just about anything I've done for the last 15-20 years or so, at least for everything that I put on the air.

And then you ask me why I don't want to pour money down a rathole!

Well the link is for the brand new as of tomorrow support system. Have you seen this?

Dear BackpackingLight.com Newsletter Subscriber,

We have upgraded our customer support system.

The old system was archaic, self-service was nonexistent, and issue management efficiency and tracking was complicated.

Of all the areas we've been wanting to improve in, customer service remains at the top of our priority list, and unfortunately, our old technology was becoming a severe limiter to our ability to serve our customers well.

Please visit this page, to access the new system:

That was what I referred to.

–B.G.–

That was Tom, not me. I only question your relentless postings.

I'll go one more if you will.

When I tried to enter the BPL support desk:

There is a problem with this website's security certificate.

Enough said.

–B.G.–

I hope your problems can be resolved.
