Apologies - something very clearly went wrong here. We’ve already begun investigating, and some very early results:

* Any AI responses used for email support are now clearly labeled as such. We use AI-assisted responses as the first filter for email support.

* We’ve made sure this user is completely refunded - least we can do for the trouble.

For context, this user’s complaint was the result of a race condition that appears on very slow internet connections. The race leads to a bunch of unneeded sessions being created which crowds out the real sessions. We’ve rolled out a fix.

Appreciate all the feedback. Will help improve the experience for future users.

Literally no one wants this. The entire purpose of contacting support is to get help from a human.

Sorta? I mean I want my problem fixed, regardless of it it's a person or not. Having a person listen to me complain about my problems might sooth my conscience, but I can't pay my bill or why was it so high; having those answered by a system that is contextualized to my problem sand is empowered to fix it, and not just a talking to a brick wall? I wouldn't say totally fine, but at the end of the day, if my problem is solved or my query, even if it's weird, I can't say I really needed for the voice on the other end of the pHone to come from a human. If a companies business model isn't sustainable without using AI agents, it's not really my problem that it's not, but also if I'm using their product, presumably I don't want that to go away.
