~Donna's review of Earthlink customer service
GetHuman: So how would you sum up your experience for GetHuman's Earthlink 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.
~Donna: I wanted to have them change a file permission on their server. The person didn't know anything. She won't answer my direct question. She kept saying " we are checking the file permissions". I don't think she even understood my question.
GetHuman: Let's quantify your experience contacting Earthlink. On a scale of 1 to 5, how easy is it go get help on a Earthlink problem?
~Donna: I'd give them a three 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?
~Donna: I'd give them a four out of five on communication.
GetHuman: And what about Earthlink's ability to quickly and effectively address your problem?
~Donna: For that I would say three out of five.
GetHuman: And finally- any advice for other Earthlink customers?
~Donna: Call them early in the day or late. Don't forget any personal or account information you might need for Earthlink to know who you are.
GetHuman: Well there you have it. Some useful feedback and words from ~Donna taken from his Earthlink customer service problem that occurred on October 20th, 2017.
