Nothing quite says “high-performance muscle car” like a popup ad for a Mopar Extended Warranty covering your whole center console. That’s right, Dodge Charger owners are now experiencing an exciting new feature: pop-up ads that appear every time the vehicle stops at a light. This absolute garbage feature was spotted in the wild, take a look here.

First question: What the hell is this?

Second question: What the hell is wrong with you people?

Yep. Just cuss them out, scream and abuse them every pop-up. If everyone did it the ads would stop in a week.

WTF? No! The call center people didn't do this. What the hell is wrong with you?

You call and ask them that you have a question, and that it's to ask their marketing team "what the hell?"

Treat call center folks are your allies, and they can easily become that for you. Abuse is literally the only wrong answer.

What the fuck, no, absolutely do not abuse the people working in call centers. What the fuck. They have ZERO agency over where some ad ends up nor who buys their capacity.

I mean... You can waste their time without.being awful. Someone has to pay those people, and Dodge won't want too. Teach dodge its to expensive.

Nope. They are paid by the hour though, so the longer you can keep them on the phone, the more it costs Stellantis.

Nope what?

[-] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

No to the thing you were also saying no to, namely abusing call centre workers.

What did you think I was talking about?

[-] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

Nope to them being innocent. Why would you reply to me with nope when you actually agree with what I say?
