Finally success with Customer Service thanks to Becky
The only thing that made it great after more than a month of being on hold, being asked for the same information over and over, not returning calls, being on hold for 45 minutes and then disconnected etc was Becky in customer service Today. I explained to her that the battery in both my grass trimmer and Hedge trimmer had gone bad at The same time, one from 2022 and the other from 2023. I am a healthy 73 year old retired executive who uses the lawn trimmer every week and the hedge trimmer only twice so far. I alternate the batteries in the lawn trimmer so both batteries get used. When I finally got to customer service they agreed to send 2 new batteries . When received they were both “green” until I put them on the grass trimmer and each one turned red then red/green. Bad they said so they sent another battery and when received it had 3 green lights so I slid it on to the machine and it sparked and smoked so I pulled it off. Dead of course. When I finally got ahold Of them again I Got Becky!!!👍. She listened carefully and reviewed everything that had transpired over the last Month. She even saw where other CS people had made “mistakes”. I suggested to her that it is Not the battery that is faulty, there is a short in the machine. No one else listened. So what happened! She is sending me 2 batteries AND she gave me a warranty service request form to take to Lowe’s or Northern Tool and even found the addresses for me. I knew Lowe’s does not repair at the stores so I took the trimmer to Northern today and it will be fixed, in fact they know what was wrong. So, why this long review? I worked in executive management in three large corporations Including a 20 year stint at Stanley Tools, always managing manufacturing operations. Customer Service was and is the backbone of success. Becky deserves recognition from EGO and I certainly hope she gets rewarded for finally a job well done. I hope I hear back on that. Thanks
