GetHuman-walter2: skewing the rating by killing true negative reviews
GetHuman: Can you tell the rest of us a bit more from what happened on 11/23/17?
GetHuman-walter2: Richmond Hospital in Richmond BC is a horrid place, deserving its bad reports, but yelp has made a ton of them useless, which would give the hospital a fair rating, ie one star, rather than the bogus bs there now.
GetHuman: Let's quantify your experience contacting Yelp. On a scale of 1 to 5, how easy is it go get help on a Yelp problem?
GetHuman-walter2: 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-walter2: I'd give them a two out of five on communication.
GetHuman: And what about Yelp's ability to quickly and effectively address your problem?
GetHuman-walter2: For that I would say one out of five.
GetHuman: And finally- any advice for other Yelp customers?
GetHuman-walter2: Call them early in the day or late. Don't forget any personal or account information you might need for Yelp to know who you are.
GetHuman: Well there you have it. Some useful feedback and words from GetHuman-walter2 taken from his Yelp customer service problem that occurred on November 23rd, 2017.
