Background on GetHuman-369040's case
GetHuman: GetHuman-369040 - can you tell our other Yahoo customers when your case took place?
GetHuman-369040: Yes I can. It was middle of the night, on November 17th.
GetHuman: Did you reach out to Yahoo, and if so, how?
GetHuman: And which of these common Yahoo customer issues best describes the reason you wanted to talk to them?
(Shows GetHuman-369040 a list of common Yahoo problems)
GetHuman-369040: "Account hacked" was why I was trying to contact.
GetHuman-369040's review of Yahoo customer service
GetHuman: So how would you sum up your experience for GetHuman's Yahoo customer community? We'll censor any IDs, numbers, or codes and any inappropriate words here out of respect to the millions of other customers using this resource.
GetHuman-369040: You locked my email account when I desperately needed it. I had correctly answered a bunch of security questions but because my new computer wasn't recognised, some spotty ignorant Norman-no-mates git of a programmer decided the only thing to do was to block the account. There is no way to contact you - no emails, no access to an actual human being, just Machiavellian "help" pages, none of which work and all of which are just a scam to keep the public away. "We are experiencing a large call volume" - of course you are, your service is utter ****!
GetHuman: Let's quantify your experience contacting Yahoo. On a scale of 1 to 5, how easy is it go get help on a Yahoo problem?
GetHuman-369040: I'd give them a one out of five for ease of finding your way to help.
GetHuman: What about quality of communication. How would you rate that on a 1 to 5 scale?
GetHuman-369040: I'd give them a one out of five on communication.
GetHuman: And what about Yahoo's ability to quickly and effectively address your problem?
GetHuman-369040: For that I would say one out of five.
GetHuman: And finally- any advice for other Yahoo customers?
GetHuman-369040: Try to deal with them early in the day or later. Don't forget any personal or account information you might need for Yahoo to know who you are.
GetHuman: Well there you have it. Some useful feedback and words from GetHuman-369040 taken from his Yahoo customer service problem that occurred on November 17th, 2017.
