- jonatron 4y agoOn amazon you get company names and addresses like shenzhenshihenghongxingkejiyouxiangongsi at LONGHUAQUGUANLANJIEDAOGUANLANHUANGUANZHONGLU370HAO.
- rustyhalo 4y agoand it is perfectly readable and can be translated back into chinese, for instance this can be translated into 深圳市恒宏兴科技有限公司 at 龙华区观澜街道观澜湖安关中路370号 but it did look like someone touched their yubikey by accident.
- LorenPechtel 4y agoYeah, people tend to not be as happy with someone they can't see as a person--and not being able to say their name is part of that.
- daneel_w 4y agoAbsurd statement in the context of chat/e-mail support. Of course you're not gonna get to see what the staff looks like. And no customer ever became happier nor felt more "connected" with the advent of first-name basis support staff in chat/e-mail instead of anonymous styled "you're talking with Support, how can I help you?", just like no customer is ever impressed with sales people gussying them up by repeating their name during conversation. It's just product packaging, not a support quality bump.
- daneel_w 4y agoNo, nor would I be sadder. Most of them do present their names in kanji, and it makes absolutely no difference at all to how the e-mail/chat support errand will progress.
