Terrible Customer Service

Garrison Calagoure Monday April 22, 2019

The agent who set us up and did our orientation in Seattle was amazing and got us on the road feeling very good about our decision to use Roadbear. It didn't last. 8 pm on the friday a hose connector breaks while we were driving causing the RV to flood with water. Called the after hours number on the keychain 23 times between 8 Pm and 8 am the following morning trying to get someone to help us. no Answer 23 times.

Called the corporate number wanting to leave a voicemail for when they opened the following morning. Press zero to leave a voicemail - phone hangs up. Or stay on the line to leave a message - phone hangs up.

Finally when the customer service line comes on at 8 am I get a hold of someone. They tell me the following over a 17 minute conversation between 2 agents
-Stop dwelling on the past.
-Refer to your contract.
-It's not our fault.
-No refunds.
-Drive it to our nearest office.
-No compensation will be offered.
-What's done is done.

We drive to the Vegas office. at this point 16 hours without running water. German guy running the office Literally Argued with me over the issue. Told me he couldn't do anything because the two bosses above him don't work Saturdays. took almost 2 hours to fix. Offered to pay for breakfast on the condition it was under $10 per person.

RV gets fixed - leak in the shower now happening. RV door stops locking. Swings open as we drive down the road.

Go to drop the RV off at LA office and get great help from one of the staff. Then his German boss gets involved and she argues with me the same as in Vegas to the point her boss had to get involved.

Good morning,

Thanks for your feedback which – unfortunately! – does not sound the way we expect our partner to provide customer service.

In regards to the roadside phone: Yes, we have heard that their phone carrier had issues and calls were not routed correctly for a couple of days. Also there should be a voice mail option – they will fix this.

We will check with staff who served you and will get back to you in private. In the meantime please accept our apology for our partner not meeting expectation in regards to service.

We will let you know in private the conclusion of our discussions.

Kind regards,
