Hmmm..... Like the BBB but better? The better BBB? BBBB perhaps... Or B^4...
"Know B^4 you buy"
BCFC - By Consumers for Consumers
BBB is run by businesses, for businesses.
Not a consumer protection agency.
This was always the funniest thing when I worked product support. Folks would threaten to go to the BBB and we'd just mute to laugh
They didn't just pit us against each other through populist politics, they also hired us to fight one another.
It's pretty impressive in its darkness.
Bruh, it's screeching Karen's wasting everyone's time trying to get something for nothing when they're already in the wrong. Let's bring it back to the real world, here.
I always used what flexibility was available to me to try to do right for our customers, but we had a shocking amount of people literally trying to commit insurance fraud among other things.
Listen, I get where you're coming from don't get me wrong, what I meant was, back in the 80's, if you had a complaint, you had a number to an office, and the person answering was responsible for the content of the conversation, you know?
Now, as I see it, we've been kind of outsourced to take each others shit without having any real power. I don't know maybe that's trite, like obvious, you call a support center and get connected to India, know what I mean? They just offloaded their responsibility on the consumer, of which the employees most certainly are- we're all just consumers in the end. My 5c, also, apologies for any gangster lingo, I'm fuck white, I've just been watching a LOT of YouTube videos.
Just a quick reminder to anybody reading this:
The BBB is not a government institution. It is nothing but a for-profit company
Its almost a poorly made extortion racket: if you are a business that does not pay the bbb to get a good rating they rate you badly till you do. But either way they can't actually do anything about shitty companies, its all the illusion of having recourse for the consumer when there is none.
No, I mean like just a static page that lists every company and with a grade to the right of their names, and you click on a company name to drill down to comments about them and their grade. A quick lookup reference that someone can use before purchasing a product.
Basically like how they have websites for movies, but for companies instead.
The BBB doesn't have such a thing AFAIK, it's just a place for reporting companies at an individual complaint level.
What do you call supersized legos all painted black?
Big black blocks.
