Good Customer Service at Sylvania - A Rare and Delightful Event
During the past year, we installed compact fluorescent bulbs throughout our house. One of the benefits of switching from incandescent to fluorescent is that the bulbs are supposed to last a lot longer - most are guaranteed for 5 or 7 years. Well, we had three bulbs (all of the same type - Sylvania CFL Globe 40) die within a year. We have several more of the same kind that are doing fine, so it must have been a bad batch. So I sent them back for warranty replacement on July 18. I received four new bulbs on August 10.

No hassle, reasonable turnaround time, and an extra bulb for good measure. Good job, Sylvania.

It sure is nice to have a good customer service experience in today's world. It seems that customer service hassles have become the norm, and the positive effects of good service on customer loyalty are often overlooked and undervalued.

Nice doing business with you, Sylvania - you'll get more of my business in the future.
