Months ago I was ecstatic to find out that Dragon age Inquisition was going to get a collector’s edition called the Inquisitors Edition that came with a plethora of amazing physical and digital items. The first thing I did, as I always do, was to text my younger brother to tell him about it and how excited I was for it. I also knew that due to my current financial situation I would not be able to afford such an amazing deal. My brother, being a loving and giving person, offered to pay for it (I think because I told him I’d sell my left nut to get it). And so he did. He went to GameStop.com and preordered the game and I eagerly awaited its arrival. On July 23, 2014 my younger brother Daniel Pooler committed suicide. I was crushed. I lost an amazing friend. I don’t know how someone so amazing could feel so low as to end their own life. For weeks afterwards I was not myself. I was more irritable, angry, and depressed. I missed my brother. I missed texting every day to talk about new games, or technology. I still struggle with feelings of pain and regret. One of the few things that I was able to focus on while I was missing him was that I would be able to get the Inquisitor’s Edition of Dragon Age. I waited months to receive it in the mail. The closer that time got to November 18, 2014 I would check online each day for news about the game and any new info that might have arisen. Then came the amazing day Dragon Age was released. I checked Danny’s GameStop account and saw that the game was still in open status. So I went online and found that sometimes delays happen. Feeling sedated about not receiving the game I waited some more. THEN today November 19, 2014 I checked again and the order was gone. It was not in the order history, I had not received an email about it nothing it just vanished. That was just as my lunch break at work was ending so I had to wait four hours until I was off in order to call GameStop’s phone number to figure out why. After sitting on hold for over 20 minutes I finally was able to get ahold of an agent on the phone and told him the situation. He informed me that the order had been canceled due to account issues. I asked why I had not received any emails about this and he said he didn’t know. I then asked if I would be able to change the form of payment and he stated that since the order was closed he could not reopen it and allow a change of payment. I asked Jerry if there was anything he could do and he put me on hold for a couple of minutes to speak to escalation. When he came back from hold he stated that they were out of the game and I could not get the game that I had preordered months ago to guarantee that I would receive a copy. So now pissed off I am at my computer typing up this situation in hope of relieving some of my frustration at being treated this way. Why would you not try to contact someone about account issuers? I don’t get to even enjoy the last gift my brother wanted me to have because GameStop decided to cancel an order without contacting the customer. I have no hope of getting anything for my pathetic story or for anyone to believe it. I just wanted to say that I work in a call center for customer support and the customer support I felt in this call was horrific. I lost out on a gift because of companies not caring about their customer.
