Ooma lack of urgency in providing support

Post by dcmidnight » Mon Oct 13, 2008 11:24 am

I am getting really frustrated in my attempts to received live support from Ooma. I installed my Hub a couple weeks ago and it typically has taken 3-4 days to receive responses to email questions and phone support has been just as helpful. Saturday I attempted to call with no answer. Looked up their times and support doesnt open until 11am East Coast time. OK thats fine. So I wait. And wait. And wait. I gave up calling around 1pm. Unfortunately for me I work an early shift so all the times I can call they are apparently just not open - and they do no better responding to emails.

Is this going to be typical of Ooma support? I can deal with a lot of issues in going with a small startup company. Not having 24/7 support is something I dont like but I can deal with. But I'm closing in on a week of waiting for an email response, having no status on my number porting and with two other unanswered questions.

Now I hated Vonage when I was with them and left for good reason - but at least they were there whenever I called, thats one good thing I could say about them. I'm about a week away from returning this thing and calling it a failed experiment.
