Just a warning if you plan on buying a Mustek product. I spent almost
half hour with more than one Arab speaking "tech support" person yesterday. Never did figure out what they were saying to me as I don't understand Farce or whatever language they speak over there. Never did get my problem fixed, wasted money in my book... Just a warning if you are looking at video or dvd equipment.. |

But obviously they understood me about as much as I did them. |

Happened to me yesterday with the corporate tumor which absorbed my mortgage from the previous company, whose service was fantastic. "I'm sorry, but I'm having difficulty understanding you. Can I speak to your supervisor?" I got an American to talk to. To make matters worse, they always seem to have phones that are soaked in water each night, and their calls are routed through an old Casio digital watch or something. |

Actually, almost all of these companies are now using "IP" telephone service. |

The parent company HAS to know how bad their overseas staff sounds, but they do nothing to correct it. |

Actually, almost all of these companies are now using "IP" telephone service. Do you mean VOIP? When I had that, the voices were always very clear. But every so often the call would simply get lost! Vonnage has gotten the bugs worked out, but SunRocket folded soon after they got their bugs worked out. Here's a site which compares several of the VOIP companies, in case anyone's interested. My neighbor signed up with VOIP.com, the one on top, and is happy with it. Sometimes the service will have a problem, but for $10 a month, it can't be beat - if it doesn't go down! http://www.comparevoipservice.org/ According to the site Sunrocket numbers live on in VOIP.com. After I noticed that Vonage had an "excellent" Customer Service rating.... I just closed the window. -- Grady-White Gulfstream, out of Oak Island, NC.
