The reps have NO decision making authority* the title is just that a TITLE. For $** they have lost a customer that has given over $*** in gift cards since **** and bought * NOOKs* all for $**. The 'managers' can see that we had bought the gift cards but basically said I was lying about paying for the order...REALLY???? Spent over $**** with Barnes & NOT NOBLE and they call me a liar over $**.**Amazon & Kindle...here we come!**I am ** years old, spent ** years in Customer Service and if this company does not give front-line managers the ability to make a $** decision, they do not deserve my business.
