Oh, I'll find SOMETHING to be upset about!

[AquaGirl]

Proving the rule that SCs actually search for things to get angry about:

SC: I haven't paid since March, what's my balance?
Me: $69.47
SC: Hmm...that seems a little low.
Me: *brain exploding* um...I apologize? Would you like me to go over the charges?
SC:*sighing disapprovingly* no. Ill just pay it...I GUESS.

So...it's now so LOW you don't want to pay it? WTF!?

[Betweenshades]

My standard line is "I can charge you more if you'd like."

[protege]

*brain goes 'splodey'*

Er...I got nothing.

[tropicsgoddess]

Say whaaaaa......

[ShadowBall]

They can pay off my balance too, if theirs is too low. I don't have a balance yet, but that can change.

[NateTheChops]

My standard line is "I can charge you more if you'd like."

Ditto. Can't say much more than that.

[Food Lady]

I've questioned a low balance or charge before, simply because I am honest and want to make sure there's no mistake in my favor.

I question unexpected low balances because I don't want overlooked charges to incur additional fees for late payment.

[chainedbarista]

i have a few bills they can cover for me, since they're dissapointed by the low balance.

[Andara Bledin]

The questioning of the low balance is fine.

The being a complete twat from that point on is the problem. After all, the rest of us would have answered "yes" to whether we'd like to go over the charges.

That reminds me of something that happened to a co-worker...she went get a tag for an item that didn't have one. The customer questioned the sale price, which was about four dollars CHEAPER then what she saw on the tag. Co-worker asked her if she wanted to pay the ten dollars over the six dollar sale price.

[EricKei]

I've had reason to be suspicious of unusually low balances before -- they usually meant that part of the bill got charged on the usual bill, and the rest showed up 3 days later, but they didn't bother *mentioning* the latter...but I'm not gonna be a dick about it

[Sapphire Silk]

I would have said, "I just want to be sure I get my account current." In fact, I have said that.

[Antisocial_Worker]

My standard line is "I can charge you more if you'd like."

I actually did say that to a hotel guest once, when they were suspicious of why our rates might be so low. I believe my exact words were: "I can jack the rate way up if you like."

Nice!

I say this way too many times. I said it at the auto body shop at least once a day!
