I concur. I mean... I have never met Gazzuzz but Dude has been more than helpful. Thanks Gazzuzz

nwaneni, I have never met this guy gazzuz but he is not what you paint him to be. he pocks my calls and when he doesn't I understand he may be busy.
no one I know picks all his calls. I don't pick all of mine.
I send him texts when he doesn't and he calls back or replies the text. I have never paid him a dime but he helps out when he can.
we should all understand that people have a right to their privacy.
no offence meant by my post but the number of beefs and bashings brewing in the cartalk section is unbecoming.

proud and cocky as usual.please at least tell this forum how I was rude to you on the phone.
I have a competent mechanic who does well,but this issue proved to be beyond his expertise,after I left his office,thesame issue broke out on the way and I thought i should seek a second opinion,who else but gazzuzz.
Our conversation was thus;gazzuzz,how far(which is common btw Nigerian youths).I am experiencing......
What did you do after that?you hung up.
now tell me who the troll here is because I really think it is you,mightier than thou.

I would hang up the phone on you too. Realize you’re calling to ask for a favour and read this your conversation again. He’s not your friend, he doesn’t even have your number, and the first thing you say is ‘how far’ and start narrating your problem. Did you ask if it was a good time for him to talk? Nigerians sha and entitilement mentality.

hello?I am not crazy.i told him where I got his number from and did all formalities before proceeding.how far was just the first thing that I said to him which is normal between young people.get it?
Secondly,I was not asking for a favour,get that into your thick skull.its from talking to him that leads to patronage hence he gets to make money from me.

Guy! Google is your friend stop blaming people for your carelessness. Your engine knocked because you did not have the patience. The car was giving you signs what you should have done is to park it, and do your research to know what the problem is and the best way to solve it. But no you kept driving it in that condition, now you are blaming someone because he hung up on you. Na him buy car for you abi na him hand you buy the car from abi na him work on am before?

I have not met Gazzuz too. I have issue with my vehicle and I was given his number on this forum.

I called him on phone,but sincerely I was not impressed with the way he answered me but I said thank you and moved ahead. Not an issue,solution providers are every where and people have different customer management ideas.

Of major importance I want to point out,is that we all can't be professionals in every field.

The car experts should be open to even the silliest question from car users.

Over the years I have been driving only brand new cars,I never knew the name of any parts of the vehicle because it was only routine service I do.but when lately I bought a used car,I now know that mechanics are important,I have known names of car parts because I have been asked to change this or that.

Please lets be kind to each other

Considering your post history, and the tone of your replies in this section, I have little to no doubt that Gazzuzz was in the right. Not like this entire thing is any of my business, in any case, but I just decided to chirp in.

And lol at "how far". What ever happened to business courtesy?

Then you are not civil. Two wrongs don't make it right.
There is way to manage customers. If the caller did not show coutesey and you not Ok,tell the person and move on.it rude to hang phone on a prospective customer. It is because gazzuz is the owner of the business. If Gazzuz employed a customers service officer to recive calls for instsnce and a customer comes to complain that the customer service officer hung up because the customer did not greet properly,Will Gazzuz tell the customer service officer well done?

The business should be the focus.

Customer service officer will give information like appointment times, directions to workshop, details on car drop off and pick up etc..so that’s a wrong analog.

I’ll say this one more time. He was calling for a favour, for advice. With the amount of calls this person receives, did the caller ask if it was a good time to talk?

p
There is nothing wrong in asking for favor. We all will need favor at one point in our lives.

If the caller is not right at this instance,the person on the other end should make the caller know so and move on with the aim of the call.

He hung up. Two wrongs will never make it right.

Wealth is not measured by the car you drive. Gazzuzz had a good intuition in dropping your call.

One thing I know: Gazzuzz is one of the few human beings I can totally trust. And I have never met him in person.

And for me, he has been very very nice, and even patient. But the experience was not the same for some one I refered him to for vehicle inspection

Point is, HE IS A HUMAN BEING! He is a busy man. And if you respect him, he will respect you.

There was a time I begged him to purchase something for me. I transferred the money without telling him. He promptly refunded it . there I knew I crossed a line.

Customer service? Yep I understand. But you should also understand that his business is governed by policies which is obviously working for him.

If you are not happy with his style, you can kindly move on to the next one.

Not trying to defend anyone but myself being a mechanic, its start to diagnose car problem over the phone, the best thing is always phone to book an appointment or to get directions to the garage.

The best is always to physically investigate the problem on the car than a diagnostic over the phone

firstly, I just met Gazuzz for the 1st time on Sat. and I can tell u that this guy is principled to the max.... u have to first understand that!!

secondly, in his siggy I don't think there is any form of indication or implication that suggests he works on the Mercedes brand.

thirdly, I would like to paraphrase Gazuzz, "u r not a paying customer"
sadly most people do not bother to understand the logic behind that statement. for free consultation, u need to humble urself to the max..... (try consulting ikenna) so u can appreciate the priceless value of the free advice.
do u know what it takes for someone u r not paying to listen to ur problem, research on it(since he doesn't handle such regularly) to make informed suggestions.... then u cannot employ courtesy in ur convo? guy be civil.

fourthly, it's obvious u cannot isolate yourself from ur personality, I'm pretty sure it was reeking from your conversation with him. it might not be the content but the tone of words.

overall, I'd say Gazuzz made a wise decision by ignoring u. u pose a worse threat to his biz; esp his reputation if he had taken ur job.

all these ur Yankee escapades and Mercedes buying spree no go help u, calm down..

where u r today, a lot of people (faceless monikers on nl) have been there and done that infact many see that condition now as demeaning. u don't need to brag about anything.

it's unfortunate Gazuzz ain't about the money IN SOME CIRCUMSTANCES....
