For this generation, chat is just as good. And they do have chat.

"This generation" does not include everyone, and leaves out many older collectors. Good Customer Service includes everyone. Having some lame chatbox, where you have to wait, is not customer friendly and screams: who cares about your wants/needs.

I used to hate chat but I actually prefer it to waiting indefinitely on hold to talk to someone at Verizon, or my bank, or other businesses that nominally have phone reps but you often have to navigate through endless menu trees and then wait forever and most don't even estimate the hold time.

My wife likes chat, but shes in the computer industry.

I hate chat, mostly because it requires typing and I'm not good at that.

Not sure about the kids, but my youngest according to school types 70wpm at 100% accuracy. (and that at 11)


To me, if a company has no phone you can call, they're not really legit. It's the hallmark of scammers.

It's becoming a chat and text and email world. We can either bemoan it or adjust, I think.

Sounds like an obvious choice! I’ll take bemoaning for $600, Alex…

Don't forget the rise of the automated phone menus that replace people. I don't think I'll ever adjust to having to shout "TALK TO AN AGENT" multiple times in order to reach a human.

It works just as well if you don't shout.
