Horrible Customer Service From Cargurus
Last Sunday morning my account was deactivated without explanation.
Monday morning I called Cargurus Customer Service at 1 800 227 4878 to find
out why. The first person I spoke with could not or would not give me any
information. When I asked to speak with their supervisor I was told NO and
hung up on! I called back two more times and was told to email user support.
So I did. After several hours with no reply I called Cargurus again at 617 354
0068. That number went straight to voicemail and I never received a return call.
Monday afternoon I finally received an email stating "We're sorry for the
inconvenience. Your account has been reactivated." No explanation of what
happened or why my account was deactivated in the first place! When I called I
told them I was on the question and answer forum frequently and had been for
several years! Obviously this made no difference! To me volunteering our
knowledge and time is no different than volunteering at my local church, fire
department, etc. It is because of those of us who volunteer this forum is a great
place to come with car questions! We have a lot of very knowledgable people
who volunteer to help others! Judging from the poor treatment I received it is
Obvious Cargurus does not appreciate or value us at all! I'm not looking for an
"attaboy", compliments, or anything more than some consideration when a
problem arises! Obviously Cargurus doesn't think we volunteers deserve that!
This situation was very upsetting to me and I wanted answers as quickly as
possible. The disrespectful treatment I received from Cargurus Customer
Service "team" was disgraceful. Especially to someone who has been
volunteering to help make the website a good one for the past seven years!
What should we volunteers do about it? I think we long time regulars, and you
know who you are, should put together a plan to fix this problem and make the
powers that be here at Cargurus realize what good people we have!!
Suggestions? After the terrible treatment I received I think it's important for us
volunteers to push back!! Jim
