Re: Why I hate VM's Indian tech support
don't get me started. I have got a degree in microbiology and like to think of myself as semi-intelligent and I met someone a couple of years ago who mentioned he was doing a degree as well so I keenly enquired as to what he was studying (thinking it would be something academic and interesting) and he replied "football management". I had to do my best to keep a straight face.

Reminds me of someone I knew who was a Doctor of religion but was allowed to use the DR title. A PhD in spirituality. It does devalue the trust one puts in the DR title when seen in the future.

Re: Why I hate VM's Indian tech support
I can't agree with Qtx here. You're a Doctor of Medicine, a Doctor of Philosphy, a Doctor of Religion. Nothing to devalue. Quite the contrary.
But how many of VM's Indian tech support are Doctors of anything?

So you give the same value to a medical doctor as a doctor of religion?
Where did I say VM Indian tech support are Doctors of anything?
The point is a title or qualification is not universally at the same level. Be it a doctorate or degree.

Yes in cases other than medicine and science. And just to drag this back on topic again, as I would if that person had a degree in IT. But as Hugh suggested if they are not permitted (or willing) to go off-script then having the degree itself will be of little benefit.

Re: Why I hate VM's Indian tech support
Just keeps getting better and better.
We were told a superhub would arrive today, I stayed in all day and...yep you guessed it, it did not arrive. Rang VM tonight only to be told the agent who said he'd sent it and would be with me today had no right to do so as it hasn't even been dispatched yet and would take 3 to 5 days.
What the hell is wrong with this stupid company??
