[AusNOG] Anyone from tpp on list?

[ANSA SERVERS]

Hi Ross,

I tried to convey that in my reply however was accused of being raciest. I have nothing against the workers themselves, they are just trying to do their jobs my problem is with the employers who have no care or respect accept for making as much money as possible and paying the minimum amount of money.

There ARE skilled workers in Australia if you choose to look for more than 5 seconds. All offshore call centres are doing is infuriating the end consumer. I would much rather be told the centre is shut then deal with someone who has no clue what they are doing.

As I said to Jared, this fix ( if it was what I think it was) is a VERY basic issue, its actually in the knowledge base somewhere, well it was not sure if it still is.

Whilst everyone keeps sending calls offshore of a night time they will continue to go backwards in their customer service.

I do agree with one thing that Jared just said about low profits doesn't justify having 24/7 support in AU

Isn't it wonderful that we all live in a world that stops at 17:30 local time and starts again at 09:00 the next morning.

Isn't it wonderful that we don't have clients, or customers, who expect
24/7 operation of their stuff, and that when someone like tpp has a SNAFU, that the rest of the world is so understanding that "you'll get to it tomorrow, or monday, or whenever you can catch the eye of a passing tech"?

For a company the size of tpp (or the size they like to say they are...
and remember, TPP has actually been netregistry for quite some time, and both of them are actually melbourneit for the last few months.... that only makes the deal even MORE absurd... that what, 90% of the .au namespace is "administered" by one entity, who turns off the phones at
17:30 each afternoon.....???)

Anyone here considered setting up as a competetive, COMPETENT registrar in .au? I know a heap of people (myself included) who'd move in a heartbeat.

I wouldn't use melbourneit if they were the last registrar in the world, and tpp have gone to the dogs in the last 3 or 4 years. Between their incompetence and their "we don't care" attitude....

And that's got NOTHING to do with race, colour or sex.
