I bought a Sony phone a while back and had a problem downloading songs. I called their Help Hotline and was told in a round about way- "Tough, Deal with it". I told them that I was Anonymous and I came from the internets and had an angry force of legions that would join my crusade: After twelve minutes and 33 seconds of silence I was told that someone would be at my house. 3 minutes later there was a ring at my door and problem was solved

Never misunderestimate the Power of the Intrewebs. If you haven't utilized that tool then I thought I'd give you guys and gals that piece of cannon fodder for your warchest

This story is vague and hard to believe

Nutshell Version: My phone couldn't download songs. I went back to the store and they gave me the brush off giving me the "customer service" number. I called and said I wanted a refund- the phone wasn't doing what I bought it for and noone would come out to the house to show me how to use it. She couldn't help me and told me I was stuck with it and then I said something along the lines of "Do You Know Who I Am? I am the Internets: I will bombard and lambaste this company on every message board and internet site available. I'm you're worst Public Relations Nightmare: Someone dissatisfied, with plenty of idle time on my hands, and a legion of people ready to hear what I have to say~BTW what is Your name so I can let that be known as well-Because as far as Servicing a Customer goes You FAIL" card and after a long pause it was if a fog was lifted. A technician came to my happy home and guided me through the problem the next day. Free of charge: but I had to give a tip~ Try figuring that one out.
And yes, I am a difficult person to deal with when we're talking about spending upwards of $500 USD for something and it doesn't deliver what it says it does. And I'm also the same person that beats the fuck out of a Coke/Snack machine if I put my $1USD in it and don't get what I paid for. Bottom Line is I hate feel cheated at any economical level.

That is 100% No Bullshit...I say a lot of half truths and speak in riddles for most of my posts but I can Guarantee Goddamn Tee You that what I'm saying above is absolute Truth

The real version is a Hardback copy Manifesto over 200 pages long. That's sold only one copy thus far and that was to my Mom. There's midgets, Zartan from G.I. Joe, Laverne, reptiles that have Bubba Fett jet packs, a car chase scene, and ladies in bikinis shooting machine guns...It's a must read.
