Female customer:






A white one...

Customer: Hi, this is Maureen. I can't get my diskette out.
Tech support:
Have you tried pushing the Button?
Customer:
Yes, sure, it's really stuck.
Tech support:
That doesn't sound good; I'll make a note.
Customer:
No

Tech support:
Click on the 'my computer' icon on to the left of the screen.
Customer:
Your left or my left?

===============
Tech support: Good day. How may I help you?
Male customer:
Hello... I can't print.
Tech support:
Would you click on 'start' for me and...
Customer:
Listen pal; don't start getting technical on me! I'm not Bill Gates.

===============
Customer: Hi, good afternoon, this is Martha, I can't print. Every time I try, it says 'Can't find printer'. I've even lifted the printer and placed it in front of the monitor, but the computer still says he can't find it...
============== =
Customer: I have problems printing in red...
Tech support:
Do you have a colour printer?
Customer:
Aaaah....................thank you.

===============
Tech support: What's on your monitor now, ma'am?
Customer:
A teddy bear my boyfriend bought for me at Woolies.

===============
Customer: My keyboard is not working anymore.
Tech support:
Are you sure it's plugged into the computer?
Customer:
No. I can't get behind the computer.
Tech support:
Pick up your keyboard and walk 10 paces back.
Customer:
! OK
Tech support:
Did the keyboard come with you?
Customer: Yes
Tech support:
That means the keyboard is not plugged in. Is there another keyboard?
Customer:
Yes, there's another one here. Ah...that one does work...

===============
Tech support: Your password is the small letter 'a' as in apple, a capital letter V as n Victor, the number 7.
Customer:
Is that 7 in capital letters ?

== =============
Customer: can't get on the Internet.
Tech support:
Are you sure you used the right password?
Customer:
Yes, I'm sure. I saw my colleague do it.

Tech support: Can you tell me what the password was?
Customer:
Five stars.

===============
Tech support: What anti-virus program do you use?
Customer:
Netscape.
Tech support:
That's not an anti-virus program.
Customer:
Oh, sorry...Internet Explorer.

===============
Customer: I have a huge problem. A friend has placed a screen saver on my computer, but every time I move the mouse, it disappears.
===============

Tech support: How may I help you?
Customer:
I'm writing my first e-mail.
Tech support:
OK, and what seems to be the problem?
Customer:
Well, I have the letter 'a' in the address, but how do I get the circle around it?

===============
A woman customer called the Canon help desk with a problem with her printer.
Tech support:
Are you running it under windows?
Customer:
'No, my desk is next to the door, but that is a good point. The man sitting in the cubicle next to me is under a window, and his printer is working fine.'

===============
And last but not least...


Tech support:
'Okay Colin, let's press the control and escape keys at the same time. That brings up a task list in the middle of the screen. Now type the letter 'P' to bring up the Program Manager.'
Customer:
I don't have a P.
Tech support:
On your keyboard, Colin.
Customer:
What do you mean?
Tech support:
'P'.....on your keyboard, Colin.
Customer:
I'M NOT GOING TO DO THAT!!



All the best Stotty............







 
i can imagine that most of these issues really did happen...which makes it all even funnier... :ROFL:
 
lol all are funny
 
Very funny, I've actually seen this one before.........and these are probably 100% true, I can't even begin to count how many STUPID questions I've gotten from people, and how helpless with computers some people are........................and they just refuse to even try to learn.
 
actually i made a pretty silly mistake the other day..i rang up Sky saying my broadband box wasnt working and no lights were showing - and then i realised i couldnt hear the pump on in the tank in my room...he actually laughed at me when i said someone had turned the power off because there were builders in my house..and i didnt even notice lol.:wall: i remember telling him nothing was working in my room except the phone...then he told me to check if the electricity thingy was switched on:duh:
 
haha great post. :)
 
Good stuff.. LOL
