I got a Stanley wall cabinet for my birthday last month, but a plastic tab used to fasten the back to the sides had broken off in the box. So I called 1-800-STANLEY, and the conversation went like this:
(After one ring and a polite greeting.)
Me: "Hi, I got a cabinet about a month ago, and one of the parts was broken..."
Them: "Do you see a part number in the user manual?"
Me: "Yes, it's [part number]."
Them: "Great -- Let me get your name and address, and we'll ship another one to you right away."
Me: "Uh... Okay. [Gives name/address]"
Them: "I'm sorry about the inconvenience. Give it about a week to get there. Is there anything else I can help you with today?"
That has to be the quickest and most to-the-point positive customer service experience I've had... After speaking only about four sentences, I hung up the phone with a smile on my face.
...so I thought I'd share it. =)
