WEBVTT - The System Tried to Cancel Me

0:00:01.800 --> 0:00:03.640
<v Speaker 1>Put your hands together, and we're going to stop and

0:00:03.720 --> 0:00:15.400
<v Speaker 1>part I'm ready to party the Elvis DA Ran after party.

0:00:16.440 --> 0:00:17.400
<v Speaker 2>Andy, I'm back.

0:00:17.680 --> 0:00:18.320
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I'm back.

0:00:18.400 --> 0:00:20.200
<v Speaker 4>And you should really wash that shirt.

0:00:20.239 --> 0:00:21.799
<v Speaker 5>Bro yea all the time.

0:00:22.600 --> 0:00:22.960
<v Speaker 6>I just.

0:00:24.480 --> 0:00:26.400
<v Speaker 3>You should also clean your shirt, and you should clean

0:00:26.440 --> 0:00:27.760
<v Speaker 3>you should clean yours.

0:00:27.920 --> 0:00:32.720
<v Speaker 2>We should wash our shirts. Three days old. Lord, what

0:00:32.760 --> 0:00:34.360
<v Speaker 2>were we going to talk about the other day?

0:00:35.040 --> 0:00:37.839
<v Speaker 3>Something that everyone pretends to understand but probably doesn't. And

0:00:37.880 --> 0:00:40.479
<v Speaker 3>Gandhi had and.

0:00:40.440 --> 0:00:41.640
<v Speaker 2>You said it was a long story.

0:00:42.000 --> 0:00:44.080
<v Speaker 5>It's kind of a long story, but it's more of

0:00:44.120 --> 0:00:48.320
<v Speaker 5>a I don't trust it type of system. The ratings

0:00:48.600 --> 0:00:51.080
<v Speaker 5>for ride shares, I no longer trust them.

0:00:51.520 --> 0:00:51.880
<v Speaker 2>Explain.

0:00:52.120 --> 0:00:55.440
<v Speaker 5>So I get a message the other day that says, hello,

0:00:55.800 --> 0:00:58.840
<v Speaker 5>one of your drivers mentioned feeling uncomfortable with a conversation

0:00:58.960 --> 0:01:02.120
<v Speaker 5>during your ride. We're sharing this feedback with you because

0:01:02.160 --> 0:01:04.280
<v Speaker 5>we want everyone to feel safe and comfortable while using

0:01:04.360 --> 0:01:07.679
<v Speaker 5>y app. Our community guidelines do not allow disrespectful language.

0:01:07.760 --> 0:01:11.440
<v Speaker 5>We encourage you to keep conversation casual unfriendly. As a reminder,

0:01:11.560 --> 0:01:14.640
<v Speaker 5>not following these guidelines may result to you losing access

0:01:14.680 --> 0:01:17.440
<v Speaker 5>to your account. And then I lost access to my

0:01:17.520 --> 0:01:21.200
<v Speaker 5>account for the day, and I said, wait, what this

0:01:21.240 --> 0:01:24.400
<v Speaker 5>has never happened. I didn't even have any conversation that

0:01:24.440 --> 0:01:26.880
<v Speaker 5>would have been flagged not to be a dick. But

0:01:27.160 --> 0:01:29.360
<v Speaker 5>I don't even talk to drivers unless they talk to me.

0:01:29.560 --> 0:01:31.319
<v Speaker 5>If they talk to me, cool, we're gonna have a conversation.

0:01:31.360 --> 0:01:33.280
<v Speaker 5>But I let them be on the phone, listen to

0:01:33.319 --> 0:01:35.080
<v Speaker 5>the music, whatever it is. I don't care. I'm certainly

0:01:35.160 --> 0:01:38.119
<v Speaker 5>not having a weird conversation in the back of the car.

0:01:38.480 --> 0:01:40.080
<v Speaker 5>So I was like, this is weird. It wouldn't let

0:01:40.120 --> 0:01:42.240
<v Speaker 5>me report for feedback or anything. It just sent me

0:01:42.240 --> 0:01:44.320
<v Speaker 5>the message in and it temporarily suspended me. And I

0:01:44.360 --> 0:01:48.440
<v Speaker 5>was like, absolutely the f not. So I called. I'm

0:01:48.520 --> 0:01:50.960
<v Speaker 5>on the phone with them. They're telling me, sorry, we

0:01:51.000 --> 0:01:52.800
<v Speaker 5>can't give you any information because all of this is

0:01:52.840 --> 0:01:56.320
<v Speaker 5>reported anonymously to protect you and to protect the driver.

0:01:56.920 --> 0:02:00.920
<v Speaker 5>And I said time out on that one, because anybody

0:02:01.000 --> 0:02:03.200
<v Speaker 5>could just report me if they didn't like a tip,

0:02:03.520 --> 0:02:05.520
<v Speaker 5>if they didn't like my face, if they listened to

0:02:05.600 --> 0:02:07.240
<v Speaker 5>the show and they don't like the show. You are

0:02:07.320 --> 0:02:09.079
<v Speaker 5>just telling me that you accept this hook line and

0:02:09.120 --> 0:02:11.680
<v Speaker 5>sinker no matter what they say, and it's gonna flag

0:02:11.720 --> 0:02:13.680
<v Speaker 5>me to the point that now you're gonna suspend my account,

0:02:13.840 --> 0:02:16.079
<v Speaker 5>and you're not gonna tell me what happened, what if,

0:02:16.120 --> 0:02:18.560
<v Speaker 5>in fact something did happen. And it was a very

0:02:18.600 --> 0:02:21.240
<v Speaker 5>inane conversation, like they loved dogs and I said I

0:02:21.320 --> 0:02:23.280
<v Speaker 5>like cats, and something rubbed them the wrong way, like

0:02:23.280 --> 0:02:25.760
<v Speaker 5>shouldn't you have some sort of recar.

0:02:25.680 --> 0:02:27.160
<v Speaker 2>Absolutely they can't.

0:02:27.240 --> 0:02:29.520
<v Speaker 5>You shouldn't just be allowed to dg someone with no

0:02:29.840 --> 0:02:31.400
<v Speaker 5>reference to them, like what happened here?

0:02:32.400 --> 0:02:35.840
<v Speaker 2>If you did it in the to the driver exactly

0:02:36.280 --> 0:02:36.600
<v Speaker 2>my mom.

0:02:36.680 --> 0:02:38.760
<v Speaker 5>So I called them. Who knew you could call, but

0:02:38.800 --> 0:02:40.880
<v Speaker 5>I call them and I was like, someone explained to me,

0:02:40.919 --> 0:02:43.720
<v Speaker 5>and they're going through this. Forty five minutes later, I

0:02:43.760 --> 0:02:47.120
<v Speaker 5>finally get a supervisor and they were like, well, it

0:02:47.160 --> 0:02:49.959
<v Speaker 5>looks as though did you get into some sort of

0:02:50.040 --> 0:02:53.560
<v Speaker 5>verbal altercation altercation with your driver today? And I was like,

0:02:53.800 --> 0:02:56.200
<v Speaker 5>that is such a great question because I wasn't even

0:02:56.240 --> 0:02:58.600
<v Speaker 5>in a car today. I didn't even take a ride today.

0:02:59.240 --> 0:03:01.880
<v Speaker 5>Was it reported for or a ride today? They said, yes,

0:03:01.880 --> 0:03:04.040
<v Speaker 5>the ride was today. I'm like, And by the way,

0:03:04.160 --> 0:03:06.360
<v Speaker 5>I called my dad and my boyfriend first, because I

0:03:06.360 --> 0:03:07.880
<v Speaker 5>was like, did any of you do something like this?

0:03:07.919 --> 0:03:12.640
<v Speaker 6>Because right I think that da that would be him.

0:03:12.760 --> 0:03:13.880
<v Speaker 2>You ever do something like that.

0:03:14.160 --> 0:03:15.960
<v Speaker 5>So they said it was reported that I got into

0:03:16.160 --> 0:03:18.000
<v Speaker 5>a fight with my drivers that day, and I was like,

0:03:18.040 --> 0:03:19.919
<v Speaker 5>I wasn't even in a car that day, and shouldn't

0:03:19.919 --> 0:03:22.960
<v Speaker 5>your own software tell you something like that before you

0:03:23.080 --> 0:03:26.239
<v Speaker 5>ding me probably impact my rating pretty seriously and then

0:03:26.320 --> 0:03:28.399
<v Speaker 5>suspend my account. Scary had to call me a car

0:03:28.520 --> 0:03:32.440
<v Speaker 5>Yeah I did crazy. This is insane, Yeah, rib I

0:03:32.440 --> 0:03:35.520
<v Speaker 5>think it's I think the anonymous reporting on both sides

0:03:35.560 --> 0:03:35.960
<v Speaker 5>is nuts.

0:03:35.960 --> 0:03:38.120
<v Speaker 2>You shouldn't well the fact that if this is a

0:03:38.160 --> 0:03:41.760
<v Speaker 2>court of law, which it obviously isn't, you should be

0:03:41.760 --> 0:03:44.520
<v Speaker 2>presented with the evidence that the other side had. Yeah,

0:03:44.520 --> 0:03:49.080
<v Speaker 2>for sure, So whatever conversation, I need proof of this

0:03:49.160 --> 0:03:51.680
<v Speaker 2>conversation because anybody could say anything, and.

0:03:51.640 --> 0:03:54.280
<v Speaker 6>Before they suspend you or whatever, they should do an

0:03:54.600 --> 0:03:56.440
<v Speaker 6>active investigation.

0:03:56.080 --> 0:03:59.240
<v Speaker 5>Right exactly, not just send me a message and then

0:03:59.280 --> 0:04:01.320
<v Speaker 5>be like you can't bond, good luck and now you

0:04:01.320 --> 0:04:02.200
<v Speaker 5>don't get access to it.

0:04:02.240 --> 0:04:04.440
<v Speaker 6>I was like, I always think of this when I

0:04:04.480 --> 0:04:06.920
<v Speaker 6>see how's my driving on the back of people's cars,

0:04:07.200 --> 0:04:09.640
<v Speaker 6>call whatever whatever, And I always think, how does this

0:04:09.680 --> 0:04:12.400
<v Speaker 6>stop people from thinking they're funny and calling and saying,

0:04:12.920 --> 0:04:16.080
<v Speaker 6>you know, this truck was driving crazy? On the this

0:04:16.120 --> 0:04:16.799
<v Speaker 6>is their license.

0:04:16.839 --> 0:04:19.040
<v Speaker 4>No, that's why half of them are scratched off all

0:04:19.080 --> 0:04:19.360
<v Speaker 4>the time.

0:04:19.560 --> 0:04:22.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, do you see the phone taps on that? Like,

0:04:22.839 --> 0:04:24.479
<v Speaker 2>I don't know if you ever did, like you call

0:04:24.560 --> 0:04:26.360
<v Speaker 2>up that one of the numbers of how's the driver?

0:04:26.480 --> 0:04:28.280
<v Speaker 2>Oh my god, k L for seven.

0:04:28.120 --> 0:04:29.560
<v Speaker 1>One is just all over the one.

0:04:30.120 --> 0:04:30.800
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:04:30.520 --> 0:04:31.760
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, and that's terrible.

0:04:31.839 --> 0:04:34.200
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's one sided.

0:04:34.400 --> 0:04:34.800
<v Speaker 5>Hate it.

0:04:35.720 --> 0:04:36.600
<v Speaker 4>How do we fix this?

0:04:36.839 --> 0:04:38.599
<v Speaker 5>So I don't know how we fix it, but know

0:04:38.680 --> 0:04:40.479
<v Speaker 5>that you can call and you can be like, no,

0:04:40.520 --> 0:04:42.480
<v Speaker 5>I'm not going to let this go, which I know

0:04:42.800 --> 0:04:45.120
<v Speaker 5>you said sometimes a dog with a bone. I was like,

0:04:45.160 --> 0:04:46.760
<v Speaker 5>oh no, this is happening.

0:04:48.320 --> 0:04:50.240
<v Speaker 2>Because you waited on hold for forty five minutes to

0:04:50.279 --> 0:04:52.520
<v Speaker 2>speak to somebody, you actually solved your own problem.

0:04:52.640 --> 0:04:54.480
<v Speaker 5>I told my story to four different people, and.

0:04:54.400 --> 0:04:57.440
<v Speaker 6>I was like, good for you.

0:04:57.800 --> 0:04:59.560
<v Speaker 3>I feel it's the same thing with the meal delivery

0:04:59.600 --> 0:05:03.520
<v Speaker 3>services too. When you're like when you delivered came late,

0:05:03.560 --> 0:05:06.120
<v Speaker 3>they're like, oh, sorry, we can't know if it was

0:05:06.120 --> 0:05:10.760
<v Speaker 3>delivered later or not. If I'm I don't by the.

0:05:10.680 --> 0:05:14.279
<v Speaker 4>Way, two hours late the other day, we need one

0:05:14.360 --> 0:05:16.880
<v Speaker 4>hundred dollars gift card to make that to make us whole.

0:05:17.160 --> 0:05:19.120
<v Speaker 3>I hate that it's the stupid chatbot.

0:05:19.920 --> 0:05:22.280
<v Speaker 4>We can get you get past them, Get past them.

0:05:22.320 --> 0:05:23.680
<v Speaker 6>How do you do that when you're doing like a

0:05:23.720 --> 0:05:24.800
<v Speaker 6>door dash or something like that.

0:05:24.839 --> 0:05:26.680
<v Speaker 4>How do they have they have customer shows.

0:05:26.920 --> 0:05:28.520
<v Speaker 5>You can say like I need an agent.

0:05:28.880 --> 0:05:33.240
<v Speaker 6>Caneah, no, I justly take the ten dollars credit and

0:05:33.279 --> 0:05:36.000
<v Speaker 6>I'm like, okay, ten dollars is more.

0:05:36.040 --> 0:05:36.960
<v Speaker 4>More than ten dollars.

0:05:37.240 --> 0:05:39.680
<v Speaker 2>So I have an issue right now with a provider

0:05:39.800 --> 0:05:43.080
<v Speaker 2>not to be named, and I have been dealing with

0:05:43.120 --> 0:05:45.760
<v Speaker 2>this for the last three months. I canceled the service

0:05:45.800 --> 0:05:48.000
<v Speaker 2>four months ago. I have been billed every month for

0:05:48.080 --> 0:05:51.320
<v Speaker 2>this service and they refused. They're like, oh, I'm sorry

0:05:51.360 --> 0:05:54.960
<v Speaker 2>this account because there's an issue with setting up the account.

0:05:55.040 --> 0:05:57.360
<v Speaker 2>They can't access the correct account, so I keep getting

0:05:57.360 --> 0:05:59.640
<v Speaker 2>billed for it. I'm like, can you please transfer me

0:05:59.680 --> 0:06:02.920
<v Speaker 2>to some but and then, because I'm so, I think

0:06:02.960 --> 0:06:06.440
<v Speaker 2>there's some sort of meter on the phone on their

0:06:06.560 --> 0:06:10.200
<v Speaker 2>end that they tell how irate you are when you

0:06:10.279 --> 0:06:13.080
<v Speaker 2>reach a certain level of anger, I just hang up

0:06:13.120 --> 0:06:16.240
<v Speaker 2>on you because every time I will get I'm like, please,

0:06:16.320 --> 0:06:17.960
<v Speaker 2>I need to speak to your shop, and then it

0:06:18.080 --> 0:06:18.640
<v Speaker 2>just goes dead.

0:06:18.839 --> 0:06:20.479
<v Speaker 4>I used to do that when I when I was

0:06:20.480 --> 0:06:23.760
<v Speaker 4>a customer service rep. I would accidentally hang up on people, Yeah,

0:06:23.880 --> 0:06:24.640
<v Speaker 4>when they got angry.

0:06:24.640 --> 0:06:27.520
<v Speaker 2>It's the last four times I've called. They keep billing

0:06:27.520 --> 0:06:29.440
<v Speaker 2>me and I keep disputing the charges, and then they'll

0:06:29.440 --> 0:06:32.320
<v Speaker 2>build me extra plus a fee because I reverse the

0:06:32.400 --> 0:06:34.640
<v Speaker 2>charge and I call and I'm I just need to

0:06:34.640 --> 0:06:36.880
<v Speaker 2>speak to somebody that can help me out, and they

0:06:37.000 --> 0:06:39.919
<v Speaker 2>just hang up on me. And I'm just so frustrating.

0:06:39.920 --> 0:06:41.359
<v Speaker 5>See, and then you show up at their office one

0:06:41.440 --> 0:06:42.760
<v Speaker 5>day and they're gonna be like ass talker.

0:06:47.720 --> 0:06:49.840
<v Speaker 2>Yes, and the guy and I was, you know, very

0:06:49.839 --> 0:06:52.400
<v Speaker 2>polite to the guy and he's like, I'm sorry, we

0:06:52.440 --> 0:06:54.800
<v Speaker 2>can't solve this. Here, here's another number you can call.

0:06:55.000 --> 0:06:56.719
<v Speaker 2>And it was just like another number that got me

0:06:57.240 --> 0:07:01.800
<v Speaker 2>to the same person. Oh God, I just they've I think,

0:07:01.839 --> 0:07:04.919
<v Speaker 2>here's my theory. They have made it so difficult for

0:07:04.960 --> 0:07:07.159
<v Speaker 2>you to complain, ye that they're trying to keep you

0:07:07.160 --> 0:07:07.760
<v Speaker 2>from complaint.

0:07:07.920 --> 0:07:08.520
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, you know.

0:07:08.600 --> 0:07:10.400
<v Speaker 4>The good way to complain now is Instagram, though, if

0:07:10.440 --> 0:07:13.360
<v Speaker 4>you send direct messages. Because I had a healthcare company

0:07:13.960 --> 0:07:16.760
<v Speaker 4>that apparently I had three outstanding bills, I had no

0:07:16.840 --> 0:07:20.040
<v Speaker 4>idea because they opted me into paperless billing without me

0:07:20.120 --> 0:07:22.600
<v Speaker 4>knowing and they all went to spam. I had no

0:07:22.680 --> 0:07:24.320
<v Speaker 4>freaking idea, and all of a sudden, I get a

0:07:24.360 --> 0:07:26.920
<v Speaker 4>letter from Collections and I'm like, what the.

0:07:26.800 --> 0:07:27.640
<v Speaker 2>Hell is going on?

0:07:27.720 --> 0:07:31.640
<v Speaker 4>So I contacted this health company and I sent it

0:07:31.680 --> 0:07:35.000
<v Speaker 4>to them a direct message on Instagram and they immediately

0:07:35.080 --> 0:07:37.400
<v Speaker 4>got back in touch with me, and they escalated it

0:07:37.440 --> 0:07:39.360
<v Speaker 4>and they called me and they said, We're so sorry,

0:07:39.600 --> 0:07:41.480
<v Speaker 4>We're going to remove it from collections and never should

0:07:41.520 --> 0:07:44.040
<v Speaker 4>have happened. And now I'm back to paper billing, baby,

0:07:44.040 --> 0:07:45.040
<v Speaker 4>because I'm old.

0:07:45.560 --> 0:07:47.520
<v Speaker 5>So public shaming, that's what has come to. You have

0:07:47.520 --> 0:07:51.520
<v Speaker 5>to publicly shame someone instead of just getting their informations.

0:07:51.520 --> 0:07:54.360
<v Speaker 2>So you know a lot of companies, you know insert

0:07:54.480 --> 0:07:58.600
<v Speaker 2>you know, blank dot com. Whatever the email address formula

0:07:58.720 --> 0:08:02.000
<v Speaker 2>is for us, it's like I heard media. If you

0:08:02.040 --> 0:08:04.920
<v Speaker 2>can figure out the formula and find the CEO or

0:08:05.000 --> 0:08:10.760
<v Speaker 2>president's email address, email them your complaints because I have

0:08:10.880 --> 0:08:13.400
<v Speaker 2>done that before. You just figure out if it's you know,

0:08:13.800 --> 0:08:17.680
<v Speaker 2>Frank Smith at blank dot com, email them say I've

0:08:17.920 --> 0:08:21.680
<v Speaker 2>tried repeatedly to get this issue corrected. And because they

0:08:21.760 --> 0:08:24.160
<v Speaker 2>will get that email, as we have seen without our

0:08:24.200 --> 0:08:29.440
<v Speaker 2>company will send it to somebody that fixes your problem.

0:08:30.160 --> 0:08:31.480
<v Speaker 2>So that's a little tip for you.

0:08:32.440 --> 0:08:35.920
<v Speaker 3>If you threaten the BBB, the Better Business Else that too. Yep,

0:08:36.040 --> 0:08:39.040
<v Speaker 3>it does help all of a sudden. It's just like, huh,

0:08:39.080 --> 0:08:41.000
<v Speaker 3>we don't want to get reported to the Better Business Bureau.

0:08:41.800 --> 0:08:44.240
<v Speaker 3>That's not good. We have a rating. I mean, I

0:08:44.280 --> 0:08:46.679
<v Speaker 3>don't know what the rating does. It's basically Yelp for businesses,

0:08:46.760 --> 0:08:47.679
<v Speaker 3>but it's.

0:08:47.800 --> 0:08:50.680
<v Speaker 2>Some businesses are so bad they're like whatever, yeah.

0:08:50.600 --> 0:08:51.319
<v Speaker 3>Pretty much.

0:08:52.679 --> 0:08:53.199
<v Speaker 6>So true.

0:08:53.520 --> 0:08:55.400
<v Speaker 3>You're right. It's like when you're on Seamless or one

0:08:55.440 --> 0:08:58.280
<v Speaker 3>of those delivery apps and you're like, well, it has

0:08:58.320 --> 0:09:03.439
<v Speaker 3>a three point two they have two for one special,

0:09:05.280 --> 0:09:06.280
<v Speaker 3>could it be.

0:09:07.640 --> 0:09:09.199
<v Speaker 2>I'm sorry you're going through that.

0:09:09.640 --> 0:09:12.559
<v Speaker 5>Well I'm no longer because your girl stuck it out. Yeah,

0:09:12.600 --> 0:09:16.160
<v Speaker 5>I'm okay, sat No, not to my satisfaction, because in

0:09:16.200 --> 0:09:18.040
<v Speaker 5>a dream world, you know, to scaries point, I would

0:09:18.080 --> 0:09:20.480
<v Speaker 5>have gotten some free dessert there and some capacity for

0:09:20.559 --> 0:09:22.440
<v Speaker 5>all the time that I wasted having to fight out

0:09:22.480 --> 0:09:25.120
<v Speaker 5>the fact that I wasn't one hundred dollars in credit. No,

0:09:25.160 --> 0:09:26.400
<v Speaker 5>I got your.

0:09:26.360 --> 0:09:27.680
<v Speaker 2>Go to with everything.

0:09:27.880 --> 0:09:30.000
<v Speaker 3>Now you only one hundred dollars credit.

0:09:31.360 --> 0:09:39.360
<v Speaker 5>This, Yeah I should have I should have escalated it,

0:09:39.400 --> 0:09:41.520
<v Speaker 5>but that's fine. I just wanted my access. I will drive.

0:09:41.559 --> 0:09:43.200
<v Speaker 5>That's like all I rely on is ride services.

0:09:43.200 --> 0:09:46.280
<v Speaker 2>So sometimes breaking even as a win, right scary?

0:09:46.640 --> 0:09:50.719
<v Speaker 4>This is true even if not even Yeah, but in this.

0:09:50.760 --> 0:09:53.319
<v Speaker 2>Day and age, sometimes even as a win, I should

0:09:53.320 --> 0:09:54.400
<v Speaker 2>have charged on my hour rate.

0:09:54.559 --> 0:09:55.319
<v Speaker 5>They will.

0:09:57.080 --> 0:09:59.800
<v Speaker 3>That's a good idea for next time. Thank you.
