A Day in the Life: Customer Service Volume 30

Wow!
30 Posts!
Whoever thought that I would have so many 
crazy
funny
nice
interesting
stories to tell about my job!

---

We offer a student/professor discount to, well, students and professors.
And the discount is pretty awesome!
It is almost 50% off of the normal sale price - for 1-year at a time {only}
Score!
For everyone!

This man called...

Customer: I want to get the {electronic version of the paper} for my daughter who is a student, what is the rate for a 3-year subscription?
Me: For the {electronic version of the paper} for 3-years it is $569
Customer: And how much would it be for me?
Me: $569

We talked a bit more about the subscription and what he would get with it
blah blah blah

Me: I will need your daughters name and information, what is her name?
Customer: If it is going to be the same price, we can just put it in my name.

We continued about the set up, I collected his payment information and we finished the call.

Um...were your trying to pull a fast one on me, mister?
I think so!
He was trying to get the student rate for himself!
What a cheater!
