- Line 1Tom 0:00
My phone has gone in for the same charging fault three times, and the store still wants another repair.
我的手機同一個充電故障已經送修三次了,門市還是要我再修一次。
- Line 2Emma 0:05
Is each visit documented, or were some of the earlier promises only verbal and easy to deny?
每次送修都有紀錄嗎?還是前面有些承諾只是口頭講、很容易被否認?
- Line 3Tom 0:12
I have two repair receipts and one email thread, and all three describe very similar symptoms.
我有兩張維修單和一串 email,三份資料都在描述很接近的症狀。
- Line 4Emma 0:18
That's already much stronger than a vague claim that the device has always felt unreliable.
這已經比那種模糊地說裝置一直不可靠,要有力得多。
- Line 5Tom 0:25
The technician says this model is tricky and that one more part replacement might finally solve it.
技師說這個型號很棘手,再換一個零件也許就能徹底解掉。
- Line 6Emma 0:31
Maybe, but repeated failed fixes change what counts as a reasonable remedy for a paying customer.
也許吧,但修了又失敗這麼多次,會改變對付費客戶來說什麼才算合理補救。
- Line 7Tom 0:37
That's exactly how I feel, because I didn't buy a phone to become part of an endless repair loop.
我就是這種感覺,因為我買手機不是為了加入無止盡送修循環。
- Line 8Emma 0:43
Then your argument isn't impatience, since prior remedies simply haven't restored ordinary reliability.
所以你的主張不是不耐煩,而是先前補救根本沒恢復到正常可靠度。
- Line 9Tom 0:51
Should I demand a replacement immediately, or first ask what their policy says after repeated failures?
我該立刻要求換機,還是先問他們對重複故障的政策怎麼規定?
- Line 10Emma 0:57
Ask the policy, but bring the conversation back to your documented history instead of staying abstract.
先問政策,但要把焦點拉回你的可證明歷史,不要一直停在抽象條文。
- Line 11Tom 1:04
Good point, because policy language shouldn't erase a pattern that keeps returning in practice.
有道理,政策文字不該把實務上一再回來的模式抹掉。
- Line 12Emma 1:09
Exactly, and you should also mention lost work, backup arrangements, and repeated trips to the store.
沒錯,而且你也該提到工作損失、備援安排,還有反覆跑門市的成本。
- Line 13Tom 1:16
If they offer one final repair with a written promise, would taking that still be reasonable?
如果他們提最後一次維修加書面承諾,接受這方案還算合理嗎?
- Line 14Emma 1:21
Only if the timeline is short and the replacement path is already confirmed if it fails again.
只有在時程很短,而且若再失敗時的換機路徑已先確認好,才算合理。
- Line 15Tom 1:27
That feels balanced, because I'm open to one last attempt but not to another vague restart of the clock.
這很平衡,因為我願意給最後一次機會,但不接受再一次模糊地把時程重新起算。
- Line 16Emma 1:34
Then ask for a solution that recognizes the pattern rather than only today's technician opinion.
那就要求一個能反映重複模式的解法,不要只看今天技師的一次判斷。
