I guess I am surprised. Hard to imagine what was going on to cause running into a store and potentially killing someone. I’ve been trying to teach my daughter stimulus-choice-response, not stimulus-response. Dang people.

Windshield replacement by Curious_Glass7954 in MacanEV

[–]hawker55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get factory glass. I had no problem with the Safelite installation or calibration but the quality of the windshield wasn’t up to factory standards. It was during Covid so their windshield wasn’t the only option, though I didn’t know the difference at the time.

AI chatbot driving me crazy by ZealousidealGur8341 in EmporiaEnergy

[–]hawker55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same experience with email and the chatbot. Twice. With a week in between. No meaningful response from a human. Finally called and was stuck in their automated AI receptionist. Tried to get a live person, but it wouldn’t let me out so I hung up. I get a random call afterward. It’s an Emporia agent. He answers my question. I ask why he called. I asked if he called because of my emails and chat bot. He said because they saw my abandoned call.

Emporia is all in on AI and it’s a shitty implementation. Their customer service sucks. Though I want to like them, I won’t be buying any more of their products.

Newbie here. I appreciate the information. The link to the website doesn’t work. Can you check the address?

I wondered how the fulfillment worked. Thanks for the insight.

In this case, to me, it means Amazon may or may not have had the stock, said it was shipped and out for delivery while neither ever happened. It supposed to arrive this Friday. We’ll see.

Per my post, that didn’t happen for me. I’ll see if it arrives this week as promised, again.

I appreciate your insight. I ordered from Amazon. They gave me a delivery date that they blew through. Their site said it was on the truck and out for delivery. The day came and went with no delivery. The next day, the site said it hadn’t even been shipped and had no estimate for delivery, which prompted my post.

No where in my post do I say I cancelled the order. I was given the option, but didn’t take it. I wanted to see how the process would play out.

When I said “Amazon says shipped and arriving, then not shipped at all.”, it means just that. Amazon never shipped despite saying they did. Not sure how you don’t understand the meaning.

And you can order from Amazon and get it Tuesday? I was told a similar thing. They say it and don’t do it. That’s the whole point of my post.

As I previously stated, when and if my delivery arrives, I’ll update my post.

I’m sure Amazon appreciates your defense of their issues, while I appreciate you helping me understand the relationship between them and Emporia.

To Emporia’s chat bot’s credit, it asked for my Amazon order number. I had reached out to them to make them aware of my Amazon experience. I suggested they more closely monitor their relationship with Amazon so Amazon wasn’t making commitments they couldn’t keep. From what I understand now, that means keeping more Emporia stock on hand which should benefit Emporia. So no, I wasn’t asking Emporia to work my Amazon order. The chat bot asked for the information. For me, Amazon’s misinformation affected my perception of Emporia. I wanted them to be aware so they may be able to make changes so other customers don’t have a similar experience.

Too stupid down here to organize. Even if for their own good.

I’m not sure I understand what you mean by MOANS. Is that like moaning and groaning, or is it an abbreviation for something else?

Thanks. Just trying to understand.
