In my opinion, the biggest complaint I see with customer service today is communication. Don’t get me wrong a lot of companies today have automated responses which greatly speeds up the contact process but the communication is lacking. You’re either talking to a robot or someone who doesn’t understand, therefore can’t effectively help.
Example…a few weeks ago I started receiving emails from Google saying they thought I was 13 or younger and they were going to delete my Gmail. I thought it was a scam and ignored it until I got the same email to my other Gmail. I contacted Google. Below is the end of the exchange of 11 emails between the rep and I.

• Customer service definition • P.A.C.K. meaning broken down
Let’s start with the definition of customer service:
the assistance and advice provided by a company to those people who buy or use its products or services. Definitions from Oxford Languages
The assistance and advice provided by a company. Actually, it is usually provided by a representative of the company. The problem with that is occasionally that person could give a damn about the company or the brand; they just need a check. This is where Customer Service can go left either due to the management not taking the time to properly train the rep(s), the fact the rep could care less regardless of training or a combination of the two. Regardless, this is a recipe for disaster when it comes satisfying upset customers or dealing with unhappy reps. However, if you are the owner and the Customer Service rep who is receiving complaints and bad reviews, then I can help you as well. Sometimes, it is a matter of a misunderstanding due to a language barrier, item marked with wrong price, or receiving something they find subpar. Whatever it is, I will help you work through it.
