Reaching A Live Customer Service Person

Posted on 06/18/2024 9:19:36 AM PDT by bluescape

Another post about Hertz customer service being difficult to reach made me ask Freepers about this.

When I was widowed two years ago I had to get the hang of handling affairs that she had always taken care of. I'm decent at it now, but even as we text there are companies that deliberately make it hard to 1.Find a phone number for help. and 2. Speak to a human because my issue was complicated and not included anywhere on their 'menu.'

I learned plenty of methods to get by, but a couple of companies had me tapping out.

What are some of your examples of these ridiculous hidden phone support numbers and/or robot menus that are programed to never let you speak to a person. And add solutions to them..if they exist.

They are not recognizing your swearing. Honestly, as someone who has programmed that stuff, the only time that has come up is to ID the swearing and simply disconnect you.

But they wouldn’t let us do that.

You’re not going anywhere !!! This too will pass.

occipital neuralgia Treatment:

Use a heating pad at the neck.

Trigger point injections can target tight muscles causing your headaches and other symptoms. Botox injections can also relax stiffness. Occipital nerve blocks combine numbing medication and steroids to ease pain and inflammation. None of these are permanent. So, you’ll typically follow a regular injection schedule. Your care team will go over what to expect.

Medications can also help occipital neuralgia’s pain and inflammation. You may take nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Or your provider may recommend prescription medications to help with more severe symptoms and pain. What you’ll take depends on your unique diagnosis.

Common over-the-counter NSAIDs include aspirin, ibuprofen and naproxen sodium aka Alieve Healthcare providers can also prescribe stronger NSAIDs when appropriate.
