The problem with government services is that you have no recourse and people are treated like cattle. If I lose money in a broken parking meter and get a ticket - what are my options? Do I get a refund? At the very least I would be forced to spend the price of a postage stamp, adding insult to injury, to fight the ticket.You can contest a ticket online in New York. OTOH if I lost money in a public phone the company was required to issue a refund check merely upon my verbal report of the loss That's not true for all private enterprise. You can buy a product that's missing a piece, spend hours on the phone with "customer service," and end up paying shipping on the replacement part yourself. You can pay for insurance through a private company, then have a claim denied for an arbitrary reason with little or no recourse. |
