To say you should put everyone to the press department or customer services is just silly.(They also get things wrong) I'm sorry but I was simply explaining company policy. If you had any idea how many E Mails senior people get in a day alongside everything else they have to deal with you'd appreciate it was a non starter to make an approach in that way. Also if you were expecting a detailed reply it would get delegated to the person who was closest to the detail to provide the answer. I should know - I've had to do that in respect of queries from government departments, ministers, the Mayor, students, other transport organisations and many other people. Can you imagine if you asked a member of staff which platform to go to and they said they were under contract not to reveal the information. And here you use the "ludicrous example" technique to try to make your point. I cannot believe any member of LUL staff would be so daft as to adopt that approach. When it comes to passing information about service disruption onto customers. I think you will find that frontline staff have as much difficulty finding out as the travelling public. I think it is getting marginally better but I would accept it is not ideal yet. As for no PA for seven years then maybe you should ask the local staff why not. Try asking on a day when there is no disruption you may get a better response. for the original poster not Anon which station is the original poster referring to and is their query related to a particular day or time of day? There *may* be extenuating circumstances like noise restrictions or something but I do find a seven year gap very odd indeed. -- Paul C Admits to working for London Underground! |
