I never understand people who engage with chat bots as customer service.

I find them deeply upsetting, not one step above the phone robot on Vodafone support: "press 1 for internet problems" ... "press 2 to be transferred to a human representative". Only problem is going through like 7 steps until I can reach that human, then waiting some 30 minutes until the line is free.

But it's the only approach that gets anything done. Talking to a human.

Robots a a cruel joke on customers.

The alternative was that the first human you got to speak to was utterly useless, with no authority to do anything substantial other than transfer you to the "real real" human (with the same 30 minute wait time) once they determined that you had a legitimate problem.
