- 1:16Speaker 1: we received your request that you'd like to cancel your service,
- 1:19Speaker 1: and I was hoping to speak to you about that. Yeah,
- 1:22Speaker 1: that's right, okay, I like cancer. Before we do that, though,
- 1:26Speaker 1: may I ask why specifically? Well, to be honest with you,
- 1:30Speaker 1: you guys are pretty expensive, and I watched everything like
- 1:34Speaker 1: a Netflix and Hulu. I don't even really mute cable.
- 1:37Speaker 1: I can see what you mean. I do see here
- 1:39Speaker 1: that you're currently paying one hundred and twenty dollars a month.
- 1:41Speaker 1: Is that correct? Yeah? And that's like so expensive. I
- 1:44Speaker 1: can't afford that. Sure, Um, can I get one hundred
- 1:47Speaker 1: and ten hundred and done a month? Hundred dollars? Maybe?
- 1:48Speaker 1: Howndre dolls a months? Maybe? Do here a month? Going once,
- 1:51Speaker 1: going twice and sold to the man on the phone
- 1:54Speaker 1: five dollars? Wait a minute, what, I'm sorry what? I
- 1:58Speaker 1: don't get what you did? You just rample off the name?
- 2:01Speaker 1: Oh I'm an auction No. Well, in our customer feedback surveys,
- 2:05Speaker 1: you've seen a lot of people saying they just get
- 2:07Speaker 1: annoyed by having these conversations in general. So I thought
- 2:10Speaker 1: that I would make them a little more fun by
- 2:12Speaker 1: doing it in an auctioneer voice. So anyway, ninety five,
- 2:15Speaker 1: we're good on that price? I said, final, No, I
- 2:20Speaker 1: sent in an email. I can't sell well, I don't
- 2:24Speaker 1: understand what you're trying to do. Let me give you
- 2:26Speaker 1: a little insider secret here. Okay, okay, I technically can't
- 2:31Speaker 1: say it to you because this call is being recorded. Okay,
- 2:35Speaker 1: but if you say a certain price, then maybe we
- 2:39Speaker 1: can get to that price and I can agree with
- 2:41Speaker 1: you on it. Oh you know what I mean? Okay? Okay, Um,
- 2:46Speaker 1: so let's start to bidding. Um, how about what's the
- 2:55Speaker 1: funny that was? Really? Are you a comedian? What I mean?
- 3:07Speaker 1: Hold on? Look? Look like remember it's being recorded, so
- 3:10Speaker 1: if you say things faster, right, they may not catch
- 3:14Speaker 1: the number. So why don't you try it in that
- 3:16Speaker 1: auctioneer stole it I was doing, and then we can
- 3:18Speaker 1: go from there. Okay, So I okay, here's the deal.
- 3:22Speaker 1: I really do want the price to be lowered. That's
- 3:25Speaker 1: like was really the reason of my email was not
- 3:27Speaker 1: to cancel, but like to get it lower because a
- 3:30Speaker 1: lot of people do. If you yeah, we get it. Yeah,
- 3:33Speaker 1: everyone thinks they know the cable company more than we
- 3:35Speaker 1: get it. Look, let's start doing the auction. So just
- 3:37Speaker 1: started one hundred and twenty dollars and go down, dude,

- 4:07Speaker 1: is the price that I'm already paying, you know, but
- 4:09Speaker 1: we can lock that price in so you never pay
- 4:11Speaker 1: more or less. No, that's the value I email if
- 4:15Speaker 1: you get the price down. You told me that I
- 4:17Speaker 1: could lower it if I started one twenty doing the
