Old Mutual’s Funtacular Take On Customer Service Week

By consumerist.com October 9, 2006

This is how Old Mutual, a financial services company, participated in last week’s celebration of customer service. Nothing says we value your contributions to enhanced customer care like a goodie bag!

Maybe we spoke too soon, the reps did also receive these amusing placards.

Note that Siyahkha’s Flickr photos are labeled “Customer Service Day.” That must have been a cost-cutting measure.

    “Annoying co-worker” = Rubber band = Aim and shoot the rubberband at the culprit

    Sure…it’s all fun and games untill someone loses an eye.

    My locally-based bank has customer appreciation days a couple of times a year. The last time (about 2 months ago) we got a begonia in a bank mug.

    Am I the only one that is scared by many of the people holding up their bags in that picture? Specifically, the woman on the far right…. There’s my new nightmare.
