Sentiment Trajectory
Transcript quality flagged: the ASR/quality-validation pipeline detected and excluded unreliable transcript segments from grading (1 hallucinated segment). Excluded from aggregate KPIs — treat remaining scores and transcript with caution.
Auto-Zero applied: Agent instructed customer to send private logs over unsecured email, violating data handling policy (InfoSec compliance failure — equivalent to 'B' Avoidance/Evasion or 'C' Discourtesy in impact). This constitutes a critical failure under Auto-Zero rule B (Avoidance/Evasion) due to improper handling of sensitive data and shifting responsibility to customer.

V2 Grader Summary

The agent failed to resolve the issue, perform troubleshooting, or protect customer data, resulting in no progress (R1, R2, T1, T3 Not Met). While escalation was appropriate and next steps were partially defined, the directive to send logs via unsecured email triggered an auto-zero due to critical policy violation. The customer’s experience was severely degraded by repeated requests and lack of empathy.

V2 Indicator Ratings

Resolution
R1 Not Met Issue actually resolved conf 96%
Agent states refund cannot proceed without receipt and completion of remaining troubleshooting, which the customer refuses; no resolution achieved.
R2 Not Met Diagnostic thoroughness conf 95%
No troubleshooting steps performed; agent only discusses internal process and documentation.
R3 Not Met Correct resolution path conf 93%
Agent insists on additional troubleshooting for a refund request despite customer’s refusal and prior extensive effort, which is not appropriate for the situation.

Agent does not ask diagnostic questions or attempt to identify root cause; only references prior team’s findings.
T2 Not Met Appropriate tools / resources used conf 92%
Agent claims logs sent via email go directly to their tool, but fails to offer secure upload method as required by policy; relies on insecure customer action.
T3 Not Met No misinformation conf 94%
Agent states 'email is directly uploading to our tool' — this misrepresents security protocol and contradicts best practices for handling sensitive data.

Agent provides case number and 24-hour timeline, but fails to set clear expectations at start or regain control after customer’s emotional outburst.

Agent references prior troubleshooting: 'they did replicate this scenario' and 'three troubleshooting recommendations left,' showing use of case history.
Escalation Judgment
E1 Met Correct escalation decision conf 93%
Escalation to higher management is appropriate given customer’s formal complaint, refusal to continue troubleshooting, and request for refund.

Agent forwards case and provides case number but does not specify who will act or give a clear timeline beyond 24 hours for internal review.
Customer Experience
X1 Partially Met Customer effort minimised conf 87%
Agent apologizes ('i do apologize') but responses are generic; fails to sincerely acknowledge customer’s time investment or frustration.
X2 Partially Met Tone & rapport conf 86%

X3 Not Met Overall experience conf 94%

This is links to technical support calling. This call is recorded for quality assurance. Please hold as we connect you to a links specialist. Hello? Hello, so this is Mark from links. giving you a call back. Well, uh, actually last time I tried to but uh, I was able to get a hold, uh just today. So, uh if you wanna, uh, talk to a supervisor then, uh. Okay sir. I'll, uh put you on hold for now. Alright. [silence]
00:00
Speaker 2
Yes, hi. Uh, yeah, yeah. Mark, go ahead. Um, what happened? Uh, did you not send that request, uh, for your supervisors to call me? Oh, okay. Go ahead. Um, yeah, go ahead. And, uh, put me on, please. Yeah, okay. [silence]
00:00
Speaker 1
Thank you for being patient. Hello? Yes. Hi Andy, my name is Kirby and I'm one of the supervisors here in LinkedIn's technical support. How can he help you today? Andy? Yeah. [silence]
02:00
Speaker 2
f, Yes, yes, hi. Uh, So, Kirby, I think you and I had spoken before and, um, what's going on with your team, honestly? Uh, because this has been a really, really a shitshow. Um, I spoke with your team member Mark after you and I spoke. You told me that he's going to do I had told you even then that, uh, I can devote some time. I've already wasted a lot of time. [silence] And I made it very clear to both you and Mark and when he started troubleshooting, I told him, let's go through the process quickly because time is really of importance, especially because Lin kiss has is is not going to be replacing it, you're just going to be refunding it. So basically, I still have to go search out the new router, invest the time and once a customer buys a product, it's not that, you know, they invest time to research things and then I wait to receive the product, then I spend the money, I do all of this. I've already wasted three, four hours. And on top of it, I've talked to your team now for over two and a half hours. So there is a lot of investment of time. You can only refund me, you know, 100, 150 bucks worth of product, but what happens to my time? Remember? So that leaves a bad impression, and then people say, oh, the company is not doing so well because the customers are unhappy. Of course, customers are going to be unhappy. If your team doesn't know how to treat customers, well, how why would they be happy?
02:00
Speaker 1
Yeah, don't worry Andy because this call is recorded.
04:00
Speaker 2
So, anyway, I spoke with your guy, Mark, he took almost an hour and I had asked him to make sure, and I want you to review that call. Kirbe, okay? How he went through the double the troubleshooting that took an hour plus that day. And I told him, I want to finish all troubleshooting. I don't want to have anything left over, because we're not going to go back to the, you know, keep doing the song and dance. And at that time, I had made it very, very clear that we're not going to do any of this. He said, "Okay, send me the logs, send me this, send me that." He asked for a lot of stuff and we sent him everything, including the logs. By the way, the logs are private information, and you guys should be making and are you taking notes for these things, kirbe? Well, not just that, I want to make sure there are some actionable items because recording will go into a a store. I manage a team of 500 technicians, so I know exactly what you're talking. But what I'm saying is, I need somebody to take action on it. recording. doesn't do anything good to anybody unless somebody looks at it. So what I'm saying is, um, the, the whole thing that he did, that whole process. And by the way, he asked me to send the the logs. I told him, send me a secure link so that I can upload the logs because my logs have a lot of personal data in them. I didn't want them going over email. Your company, which means he said, oh, we we just take it over email. We have no secure link to upload. And don't worry, a lot of people do it. And I wrote to him and he said, I'm checking that email because that's what I'm saying, you you you you guys are running a company or seems like you're running a roadside T stall. Um, because when I told him that, hey, there's a lot of risk involved. He said, don't worry, a lot of people just send it to us. Now, you know, this is not a decision that he can make because you guys represent Linksys. You should not be asking customers to share logs on an email. You should you guys should be, you know, giving us a secure link. [KEEP_UNCERTAIN] Anyway, I sent it to him. I sent that lock to him over email. I sent him other things that he wanted the the speed tests with two different servers. I mean, with the same servers on two different items so that you can compare. So, everything was sent over to him and then he calls me after two days, three days. Uh, and I told him even then I said, go ahead process this. I have already talked to Kirby. If you guys are doing a refund, I need your team to quickly call me so we can go ahead with the refund. Uh, he takes like three, four days I think he took. And then he says, he calls me back and says, "Oh, can you do another test? Let's do another test." And I told him enough of this, you guys cannot be treating customers like crap. Especially when I have told you that I'm not going to be doing this. I don't have time for all this nonsense. We have gone through the test and that is it. So, then he calls me back. Then I told him four days ago he called me again. And I told him to ask a supervisor to call me four days back.
04:00
Speaker 1
i do apologize regarding that um andy so by the way um regarding the secured line or the secured um you know uh scanning of the logs uh basically yeah so uh basically that email uh is directly uploading to our tool so um we don't really have to use our emails um it will directly uh reflect on our tool so that if we open your case uh-huh
07:00
Speaker 2
This was four days back. And now he finds the time today after four days to have a supervisor speak with me. You think all of this appears good on your customer service. Somebody something you're exposing yourself, any hacker can get that detail. OK, so that's not right. And no company officially will say, send me log or private information over email. They always because this is 20 26. This is not 1979 or 1985. So, nowadays, every company sends you a link and says, please upload. It's almost like pictures, you don't want to upload pictures, you know, on an email because again, those emails can be viewed. And I was only concerned because remember logs, I don't know what logs contains. Logs more than likely have my internal network information, right? It might have. How does the customer know? That's the reason I said. But anyway, you can log it as a separate complaint and send it to your team. You'll get the answer from them that this is probably not a good way to do because now, see what happens is this, if tomorrow there is a lawsuit on Linksys, Linksys is not going to like that, right? If there is a data breach and Linksys is found guilty, that's not going to be good for the company.
07:00
Speaker 1
Yeah, all right, so regarding that, we'll have to check, since this is the only tool that we're using now. So, currently, that's the only way that we can receive the logs. Basically, that's a very, very good idea. And we can raise this up to our higher management. Yeah. Right. Okay, so, yeah. So, actually, Andy, basically, the technical support department is actually, shall we say, all hands tied up because the moment that we forward this concern to our customer service, then basically, they will be looking for all the troubleshooting... That has to be done. Okay, So basically, for the second-level technician, he has raised this concern to the upper management. And basically, there are recommendations left for the troubleshooting to see, because actually, they did replicate this scenario, and they haven't found any issues at all. And that is why they are asking for three troubleshooting recommendations left. But you don't have to worry, Andy, because once this has been done, then basically, we will have then to proceed with the replacement or the refund process. And by the way, Andy, just to inform you ahead, yeah, the refund, yeah. Yeah. By the way, Andy, I'm sorry. Basically, on our end, on your record, we haven't received any receipt yet. So it is also advisable that you can also send us a copy of the receipt so that then they can proceed with the [silence]
09:00
Speaker 2
Yeah, Uh-huh. Well, there's no replacement, like you said, so there's no replacement you said, right, so it doesn't, Yeah. So, here's Yeah, go ahead. Yeah Yeah, No, the copy of the receipt I can send you, but.
10:00
Speaker 1
Mm-hmm. I'm sorry. Okay. So. Okay. Yes. Okay. Alright. Okay, uh let's uh note that Andy. So Andy, um like I mentioned, um we won't be able to proceed with the refund process unless um this uh three remaining or four remaining troubleshooting recommendation from our um you know engineers uh will be done with this uh device. So I do apologize.
11:00
Speaker 2
I cannot do anything then there has to be a formal complaint launch that's a different thing and that will have to be carried by the legal means okay but I'm done with all this and let them know that I'm so pissed off especially with how this thing was handled unless I hear back from Linksys customer service and they say they are fixing it or they are either uh you know refunding me the money immediately or they are sending a replacement if they want to do a replacement then it's a different conversation then I'm ready to do something but not for refund okay okay okay okay so like I said I want you to send it back yes so no you don't have to apologize you have to just send it back to your customer service and say that the customer has refused to spend more time on this because they've already spent four [silence]
12:00
Speaker 1
[KEEP_UNCERTAIN] Okay. Okay. Yeah, but yeah. Um, you know, the, it will be sent to your email address. and Um, just to, just to mention it here on the record, your case number, or reference number is P S in Tango, E S in Elephant, zero zero, okay. All right. Uh, it would be best if, uh, T S in Tango. and then E S in Elephant. The numbers zero zero one, three, zero seven, five nine.
13:00
Speaker 2
[KEEP_UNCERTAIN] hours with Lynx is they had made it very clear in the last time of troubleshooting that they're not going to be doing any more steps. So let them know that that's how it's going to be resolved. If the customer service is ready and give me the case number, uh, you know, you can quickly document it or you you want to send me an email after the documentation because I think you have to write up a lot of stuff, right? Yeah. Yeah. Hold Hold on a second. Hold on a second. Yeah, PZ in Peter? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Hold. Silence. Hold on a second.
13:00
Speaker 1
Okay, so so um, here's what we're Yeah, so um, all of the documentation will be um, seen by customer service and uh, all of the technical support or technicians here. Oh, basically we don't have a uh, customer service phone number. we will forward these cases to them so that they can contact you. So, um, here's the thing, there's Uh huh. Okay. So, here's the thing, Andy. Um, even if I'm going to forward this case to them, without any uh, you know, approval from the higher management, so basically they won't be able to do anything at all. But, what I can do on my end, you, here is that um, you know, forward this to the higher management that you refuse uh, to troubleshoot the device. [ Silence ]
14:00
Speaker 2
Okay. This is the reference number. Okay. Now what is your customer service phone number? Okay. So, ask them now to call me because, like I said, from your side, uh you have already talked to me. Please make sure, Kirby, that every word of what we discussed is documented, because this is going to go in a very wrong direction otherwise. Yeah. Yeah. [silence] Yeah. [silence]
14:00
Speaker 1
[KEEP_UNCERTAIN] and uh we'll see if uh what they can um do on their end okay andy yes yes we will do that andy so by the way andy um i would suggest that um you prepare as well the a copy of the receipt so in case this will be approved for refund without doing the recommended troubleshooting then we are ready and and we can proceed with the you know the process and refund okay okay all right so yeah however yeah so uh basically if my request will be declined andy and basically um the the person that will be calling you will be our second double technician to perform the advanced troubleshoots that uh they have requested as well however if it will be approved
15:00
Speaker 2
Yeah. Make sure you mention all the details that I've told you, including the four hours of troubleshooting done and everything that has happened between you and I in the last 15 minutes that we talked. Okay? Yeah. All right. Yeah. Yeah. That's fine. Yeah, that's fine. I'll be ready. You can let them know that I'll be ready with the receipt as soon as they call me, we can have that process done. That's not a problem, okay? And ask them to call me at that 1018 number. Okay. [silence]
15:00
Speaker 1
Then, you know, you will be hearing from our customer service, okay? So, um, basically, we're still using the same tool. So, all of the the communication or all of the, you know, the notes and the updates of this case will be, yes. Yes. So, uh, please give us the 24-hours, um time, so that, uh, we will, we will be, um, you know, waiting for their update as well, regarding on how to, uh, proceed with this case for a customer that will be refusing for troubleshooting, okay? All right. Okay. Yes. Oh, okay. Thank you for, uh, pointing that out, um, Andy. Thank you so much, Andy. [silence]
16:00
Speaker 2
