View Full Version : That was weird

So I bought a Honeywell thermostat that can be controlled over the Internet to replace the Honeywell thermostat that was installed 17 years ago. I followed the instructions and double checked by calling customer support. Things didn't work as anticipated so I sent in a customer service request from the web site.

Today I got a response, in French, to my request. Google translate shows that the response was stating that they solved my problem and did I want to rate their performance. I did not receive any information related to my problem, so I gave this feedback:

"Your email to me indicated a basic lack of understanding regarding customer service. By closing an open customer service ticket with no resolution, you believe that you should receive accolades. Good luck with that. I'm buying a different smart thermostat. I rate you zero."

Off I go to Best Buy to say bad things about Honeywell. I doubt very much that the employees at my local Best Buy can spell 'Honeywell' so it won't do much good. Fortunately, I can return the product for any reason within 2 weeks.

But I am not bitter.

Cela pue vraiment, ce service nul. Je ne peux qu'espérer que vous avez envoyé votre réponse en russe. Ou peut-être même Klingon.

Shenanigans aside, take a serious look at the EcoBee3. We've had one for about six months and we are incredibly happy with it. You can adjust if from the internet. With the app you can do it from your phone or smart watch. And if you're an Apple user it is compatible with the new Apple Home stuff.

Also I discovered coincidently that the app for the wireless meat thermometer I use for my smoker is compatible with it as well

Sorry about your Honeywell issues, Mr. Mark - we have them throughout the house and like them a great deal. Being able to control temps remotely is fantastic!

Got it all installed and working. Broke a wire in the furnace yesterday, so had the pros out at oh-dark-30 today so that I would still make it to class on time.
