Zero Customer Svs & FAQs

I recently tried ‘contacting’ SiriusXM to combine my Pandora and SXM channels. The website responded to my query by sending me to ‘contact’ which sent me to ‘help and support’ which sent me to FAQs which sent me to ‘contact’ which sent me to ‘help and support’, &c.

I have had the same problem with E*Trade/MorganStanley and Angi. In addition, E*Trade requires a customer to call an 888#, puts one on hold, due to COVID hiring problems, for two hours and then kicks the customer out of the queue. Angi’s number sends the customer to a non-English speaking outsource who signs you up for services not asked for.

Shareholders and customers are screwed over.
