Achievements

Feedback

Laura / Graeme / Suresh,

I would like to let you know that as a customer I was totally delighted by Steve Doig's exceptional customer service.  He deserves to be rewarded!!

It was such a pleasure to deal with someone from IT who has all the knowledge and expertise to deal with any issue presented to them and with such professionalism.

Steve truly has an excellent investigative and problem solving intellect which allows him to carry out this type of work so quickly, efficiently and at such a high standard of professionalism.  Not to mention that he establishes an excellent rapport and communication with his customer which when all put together more than exceeded my expectations.

These are the type of people we need in the IT Helpdesk area and Telstra.

All too often the IT Helpdesk staff are simply not able to handle the issues presented to them and on the odd occasion we get someone like Steve who is capable of doing everything.

I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate you for having such an excellent staff member as Steve.  He is certainly a credit to you and the organisation as a whole.  May I suggest that he should receive the highest recognition & reward that he so rightly deserves.

Don't lose him!
 
Please pass on my sincere appreciation and thanks to him.

Best regards
