So, maybe you have all read about the big corporate entities this past week that lost security over their customer’s email address lists?
Today I woke up to emails from Chase and Marriott both saying “we’re sorry…”
I am so sick and tired of rich corporate entities just saying “we’re sorry”. In the game of business in America, when you fuck up this much, you should pay a price, not just send out a mass email saying “we’re sorry”. What happened to the card in monopoly that said, “Bank error in your favor, collect $200.”
The way I see it, these corporate entities that screw up like this have a choice:
1. Take a HUGE FINE from the federal government (thus reducing our nation debt – it would be a win/win for both republicans and democrats).
2. Give everyone a reduction in fees (skip a car payment or a free room at a marriott for a night).
I replied to Chase and Marriott today with an email that sounds like this.
STOP LYING LIKE EVERY OTHER CORPORATION IN AMERICA!!!
If you “take my privacy very seriously” you would pay me for your lack of attention and care or the federal government would fine you for carelessly collecting such information and not maintaining proper security around it. I would lose my job if I let this happened.
What penalty is Chase or any other big corporation paying for violating the trust of innocent customers?
NONE!
This is what is wrong with America! You big corporations are not held accountable to your customers and you will not pay or compensate your customers for your carelessness.
I will definitely be blogging about this. SHAME ON CHASE AND ANY OTHER COMPANY WHO THINKS A “WHOOPS WE’RE SORRY” EMAIL CAN COMPENSATE FOR THIS! I am very disappointed.
It’s funny after all the DAILY harassment this company has given me for being late on a car payment and consumers are just supposed to shrug off this gross violation of privacy makes me sick!
You should be fined HEAVILY!
I will be taking to the internet on every blog I can find and making sure that NOBODY does business with you because you think you can fix violations of trust with a simple “whoops we’re sorry” email.
SHAME ON THIS COMPANY!
