Bad customer service

Bad customer service, very very slow. the price is high while value is not good. very very not user friendly not intuitive and lacking basic features that would make it a high school student level of application. not recommend. but the worst is the customer service. as a support tool having bad support is basic.

Terrible software

I haven't had any issues with their support but the product is just awful. It's a bandwidth hog and the UI is horribly slow and clunky. On a high end desktop, but with my home Internet connection of 2Mbps, it's unusable in terms of performance. Every UI action takes forever. We've been using Zendesk for years at our company and it seems to get slower and slower as time progresses. We don't have any plug-ins - it's a pretty vanilla Zendesk support setup.

The web interface is not responsive and very difficult to use on a mobile device (I do not want to install an app). The internal "tabs" of the web UI are very poor user interface trope.

Zendesk

Zendesk, a cheap help service that does not listen to anything, gives a lowbrow unspecific response to any query ( unless it is a legally binding one, so far anyway), waste of time speaking to them.

Awful customer service

Awful customer service. The company they represent is SilverCity and they are a total ripoff in crummy (Chinese) quality. Ordered a pair of sandals that were too big and they reused to let me return them.
Exchanged several emails with them but they would only offer a 20% discount on a new pair...why would I order a new pair when the first one didn't fit? Said "internationa shipping too expensive for us to refund"...then why are they in a customer driven industry but aren't customer focused?

Zendesk seems to represent scam…

Zendesk seems to represent scam companies. They don’t understand or are programmed to give repeated phrases and NEVER direct you to a human to resolve your problem. They represent AIORRAX, a scam company, and in my opinion, just served as a partner in Aiorrax’s scam. Zendesk is NOT very Zen. Bad name for a bad company. This is why AI will become the world’s bane!

Abysmal

This company presumably get paid by tomtom sat nav company to provide a “customer service” experience that is designed to wear the customer down until they give up. There is nothing about the service that in any way offers the customer any assistance.
They conveniently ignore Uk law and offer “support” to try to get you to ignore your rights enshrined in legislation!
A number of grossly incompetent "customer service" companies openly admit to utilising this awful company. The customer assistants for TOMTOM UK are clearly based in the subcontinent. Companies based in a number of countries abbrogate responsibility for their customers by subcontracting to this appallingly dysfunctional service.
I have yet to experience any company who passes on their responsibility to zendesk that offers two out of five star "service" total colour

2026 really not started well

2026 really not started well.
I received poor support, faced bugs, and my account manager left Zendesk with no introduction to the new person who will take over. When trying to reach out to the support I had to fight with an AI bot who was "happy to help me" with my request to churn the contract.

After escalating, I finally received some attention and help. Let see how things move from now. I really hope things will stay like this now and that it is not a temporary attention as the contract renewal is coming.

We appreciate you bringing these issues to light. We are actively restructuring our client handoff protocols today to ensure that when account ownership changes, your service standard doesn't drop. Your feedback is driving that immediate change.

Det här är praktiskt taget ett fejkbolag, undvik dem.
Det tog 4 veckor att få batteriet (stod 10 dagar på hesmidan), om du försöker returnera det sedan kommer du få tusen frågor från "kundtjänst" och när du gör ditt bästa för att besvara dem får du dubbelt så många fler. Sen vill de ha videos, bilder i oändlighet som om du är en heltidsvloggare, allt för att de ens ska skicka returadressen!

I slutändan kommer en riktigt drygt svar att för att du inte svarade på den 40000:e frågan så får du stå för frakten själv, trots att man lagt 5 timmar på alla korkade frågor.

HÅLL DIG UNDAN från det här ski*företaget om du inte är ute efter en ny brevkompis!
_____________________________________________________________

This is basicly a scam, AVOID them at all costs.

First it took 4 weeks to get the battery, then when you try to return it they ("customer support") will ask you an rediculous amount of questions repetedly and demand you send them videos, pictures like a full time vlogger. Come on!
And even if you do spend at least 5 hours of your life answering an rediculous amount of questions they just keep asking you more of the same. Anything to even give you the return adress and give you your money back (that your are entitled to acording to law)!
Absolutely rediculous. Extremely time consuming.

STAY AWAY, If you're not looking for a new pen pal.
I would not recommend this company to anybody.
