I have had to clean up too many screw ups by the geek squad so my opinion might just be slightly tainted.

You do not work directly with them as in most systems; you detail your problems, they are submitted to the Tech who will work on your case and you have little to no interaction with the person, unless you are using the chat box to interact with the Tech along the way. You take your turn with the next operation required with your case. Furthermore, it can take 1 to 3 hours for the support specialist to begin the problem solving process as well. Time means nothing to some people, Alan. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Alan Robbins Sent: Friday, February 07, 2014 8:52 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Geek Squad Remote Support with JAWS 12 10.5 hours to fix a problem?

I just finished a session with the Geek Squad overnight, taking 10.5 hours from start to finish. I believe all is resolved, but it would have been much quicker, if the Tech had called me as directed. Nevertheless, I did speak with a Supervisor about the problem of downloading the applet and being able to easily check proper boxes along the way. A matter of fact, I spoke with 2 supervisors during the night about JAWS and the problems many of us have with this process required to start a session. I actually needed the assistance of good eyes to get the applet ran, accepted, okayed and yessed along the way. Both support specialists wrote another message directly to their supervisors who work in the highest tier of escalations. Hopefully, something good will result from all of this time spent overnight. Let's hope I simply do not need their services anytime soon which would be the best resolution to the problem to begin with. Thanks and have a pleasant day. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of David Ingram Sent: Friday, February 07, 2014 6:04 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Geek Squad Remote Support with JAWS 12 If they use something similar to go to assist, then it should work because I had to do exactly the same thing with the exception that teen viewer, was already on my system.
