I heard of something similar. That's crazy though. I demand English speakers all the time.

Why would you necessarily think he is “softening “ his reaction. I have no trouble believing it just the way he said it. I personally have had several similar conversations with different companies customer service personnel. Quite a few times I’ve had to say “I’m sorry, just having a little trouble understanding you with you accent. Is there someone there who speaks English as a first language I could speak with”. And when they say yes and transfer me I tell them thank you. I don’t have to soften anything because I’m not mad to begin with. It’s not the customer service reps fault that maybe they have a thick accent. I mean, who am I to bitch, at least they are able to speak multiple languages. I can only speak one.
Sound to me like maybe you are just an a-hole and look for reasons to treat people like shite and are projecting how you act on everyone else. Many other people are capable of having normal polite conversations. Sorry you aren’t.

So if you are hispanic and ask to speak with someone who speaks Spanish, does that make you a racist? I'd bet Chase wouldn't close your account for that.


To be fair, common sense says this guys probably wasn’t closed for that either

When you really get screwed by a bank, remember the rules are set up to require that legal followup must be done in the federal system on their terms

How dare you want customer service reps to actually understand what they're looking at and speak your language!

You should probably do some more research into ESG scores.

Same reason I’m a strong believer ever in states rights; if you don’t like something your state representative does, you can show up in his office and confront him
/her. They may actually respond. Try that in DC…

How do you hand your wife a card that’s been dormant for years? Why would that even be somewhere remotely close, such as in your wallet at all?

Regardless, the story is fricked up.

I made the switch to online banks quite some time ago and couldn't be happier. Rates are too good. This sort of thing that has happened to OP is the new norm with money laundering/govt oversight. The 40 year loyalty to a company is sadly vanishing quickly or has already ended. Hopefully OP will have a good resolved update soon (apologies if missed in thread so far).

Please please so to national media, I can’t believe I am saying this but take this story to fox tomorrow and you should hire an attorney and sue their arse, just the publicity will cost them millions and I guarantee some congressman will want to hold hearing etc on this.

If this is true you should attack like a hawk

He won’t, because then the real audio would get out and everyone would hear what he actually said

Speaking of customer service issues I have a complaint about the biscuits at Popeyes they're getting smaller and smaller

Good luck with that if big money ever decided to actually go after it because parting you from your blockchain isn’t what they would do

They’d just make it impossible to withdraw anything of value from it and all you’d be left with is a nicely encrypted distributed data set

You may be right; but there was a story that blew up recently of Amazon bricking all the smart IOT devices in some guys house because a delivery man perceived racism from mishearing a smart doorbell’s default automatic message. I think these kind of stories highlight how easily a third party can ruin your day.

This kind of story is absolutely an advertisement for decentralization, no question.
