great customer service

The train company, First Capital Connect, are using twitter for the bulk of their customer relations work. Reading through their timeline is eye-opening, with tweet after tweet of gracious apology and information in response to grumpy customers.

It might be screen-based, but their customer service is personal and has a great sense of humour. The Bedford-Brighton line was delayed this morning which meant that my Luton-St Albans journey took a little longer than it should have done. The cafe were playing the Indiana Jones theme which really lifted the mood of the situation. So I tweeted. And this happened:


Well done Jay and the team at @FirstCC

  1. Visiting from the A to Z Challenge. Don't you wish ALL customer service was like that? You might want to disable the CAPTCHA during April, though. You'll get lots more visits and comments that way.
