I always recommended Constant Contact to my business associates because of your great customer service. Every time I called with a problem, I was greeted by a human English speaking voice. Now I get a recorded virtual assistant with a menu of very non-specific items and no way to get around it. In addition, when I recently tried the on-line chat, it was obvious that the person was working on other cases at the same time as mine since she was away from the chat for periods of time. My issue was time sensitive. I could tell she was not equipped to get the problem fixed and that she was just a call center operator reading from "the book". I asked her if she would have to refer my problem to someone else; she agreed and then told me that someone else would get back to me within 4 business days. Obviously, this was unacceptable and I told her so. Then she said within 2 business days at which point I told her I needed a resolution within 12 hours. We lost a client over this. Needless to say, I am very disappointed. It looks to me like Constant Contact has grown too big and branched out into too many different areas to focus on customer service.
