A SURPRISING STRUGGLE
This was a third renewal and unlike its predecessors was painful. Questions about prior history that were never asked in prior years. Maybe we hit a day with a difficult examiner, but it was unpleasant. Second problem was language skills. Call center staff were sometimes impossible to understand. Lastly, billing that was smooth and easy in prior years was done incorrectly and needed to be reversed. Maybe the problem is moving the call center to a new location.

Neal, we are sincerely sorry this renewal was frustrating, especially after your earlier renewals went smoothly. When a membership requires an Extended Plan because of the member’s age, additional information is needed to complete the application. We understand how those questions can seem new, or even unnecessary, to someone accustomed to seamless renewals before the Extended Plan requirement applied. While billing for family memberships can be consolidated, each Extended Plan application requires individual administration. These differences deserve a clear explanation, and we appreciate how they can make the renewal process more complicated than expected. Our Member Service teams are located around the world to provide assistance 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year.
