Last Tuesday I did a funny part-time job as mystery shopper who is
employed to test the service in shops and businesses by pretending to be a normal
customer. I went to a mobile shop to check the staff about their customer service
etiquette. 1. I have to be a good actress: I live with my family. My mobile
phone is an Aquos sence3 plus, Softbank. I like to watch YouTube a lot. I use 10
to 20 GB every month. I would like to buy a sim card to get the second telephone
number. One is my Softbank . The other one is Rakuten. 2. I went to the shop without
having an appointment. When we (who?) went there at 11:40, a staff member was busy
serving a customer at the moment. Another one said to me. “We are fully
booked at the moment, if we find the time, we will call you. I told her my phone number, she called me 20 minutes later. * was Miss Suzuki. She seemed a tired and unmotivated woman. She said to me, “What kind of plan would
you like to choose? If you pay 3300 yen, we will give you one year free of
charge service. You can have domestic calls and surf the internet freely. Our
service is 5G, a very fast stable service. “ Unfortunately, my home area is
outside the cell phone service range. The staff may think this woman (which one?) came here just out
of curiosity, maybe she will not make any contract*. I said to her, “ What kind of service
options do you have? Can I apply for insurance to prevent any damage? If I
make an electric, Internet service, and mobile contract together, how much does
it cost? What kind of benefits can I get? If I didn’t ask her anything, she wouldn't have
explained it in detail. She was a cold and short-tempered saleswoman. It usually
takes an hour, her serving was only 30 minutes, She was rude to customers. After
returning home, I made a report to evaluate her attitude, clothes, explanation,
shop’s display, and so on. There were some complaints about the mobile shop on
the website. If many users use the line, the line is sometimes busy.
