VIDEO: TM shows how they solve customer problems

Posted:  August 22, 2010   By:    9 comments   


This video first made its online appearance in May and we have to admit, this is the first time we’re seeing this. It starts off showing an irate customer giving a TM Point front-liner a hell of a mouthing about, from what we can gather, is a problematic Internet connection.

Then the, we can only assume, branch manager steps in trying to find an amicable solution to the problem but the customer is having none of it and walks out. The branch manager look distraught and sets in motion a bee-hive a activity from the TM workforce to solve the customer’s problem. How the video ends, you have to watch it for yourself.

We guess the video-mercial was made with good intentions but it begs the question, why let it get to that point to begin with? We’re pretty sure if the antagonist in the video was a real customer he would’ve called TM customer service numerous times to get his Internet fixed. It’s not in the psychology of a customer to just barge into a shop and make noise without first being completely frustrated with the service being rendered.

Also, the video portrays the customer as the idiot, the one who always marah tak tentu pasal. A person who has a short fuse, can never be rational with and will always want things done on the double. The customer, it seems, is evil.

And so, the video leaves us wondering, what is actually the message that it is trying to get across? If it is that TM takes customer satisfaction very seriously, then surely prevention is better than cure.

Or could it be that with this video TM is slyly telling its customers, “look how much of a douchebag you look like making noise at TM Point”?

What do you think?

both my phone line and internet was down for 2 weeks before they fixed the problem. and they call us almost everyday to ask if the problem has been resolved. it's such annoying that we asked back and told them to inform us instead of asking us if the problem has been resolved.

I wish it's like that, try calling 100 and experience for yourself. Worst still with their so call contact center , I am sure you will be pissed if you go thru the waiting time and step of performing the unrelated test when your internet is down.

What we can learn from the video:

1) It's ok to litter when you're angry
2) Road bullies are quite likely TM customers in rage
3) TM on the road staff makes sudden brakes when reaching their destination
4) Assumed new corporate motto: TM – always waiting till the very last minute

Final comment: Cancel your current outsourced PR contract to avoid further embarrassment.

They are saying customers are arrogant and stupid. Way to go TM, you just made your customers proud.
