Company Presence On This Forum?

Hello,

I was wondering if more exeprienced members and visitors of this forum know if many members are actually also employees from the large companies likes Montblanc, Parker, Cross, etc?

 

I actually hope that this will be case. If i would be an executive at Montblanc or technician or nib mesiter, i would be extremely interested in browsing this forum. As company policy i would actually put a team on this forum. Helping people solving their issues but also learning from user experiences and as a result improving their service and company. I actually have a problem my self and I sincerely hope to solve it but I just can't imagine that respectable luxury brands as Montblanc, will not take their responsibily and solve any issue satisfactory.

 

Anyway, I sincerely hope that real pen enthousiasts including people working for these companies will be present to help us out here and add something extra to the entire customer service. I think it would make 10 times more sense being present actively here than on Facebook or Twitter for that matter.

 

To conslude I'd like to ask a question. Let's say the shop which returned my MB fountain pen doesn't do their proper job, can anyone tell me how I would be able to contact Montblanc directly myself? In my case I strongly suspect the store messing up my fountainpen so I fear that I need to take this up with Montblanc directly and explaining them in detail that the store I bought it really is ruining their customer experience. I think it's a shame that bad outlets ultimately destroy or can destroy a brand's image and reputation.

Thanks!

I think that a Google search for the MB customer service would be a good place to start. Second, I think that you need to expand your imagination. While there is no way for me to know if customer service reps visit the repair forum, I don't remember any of them ever posting here. I have or have had good working relationships with a number of service departments, and none of the people I've worked with ever looked at or read FPN, though they were always willing to share information with me as a professional pen mechanic.

 

Come to think of it, there aren't many other pros posting either...

They are too busy trying to cope with a mountainous backlog of pen repairs!

Thanks, yes indeed posting members use an alias so if they would not disclose more then it´s hard to know. Nevertheless companies tend to use more and more social platforms like FB and Twitter so why not use even better platforms like this one? Where true passionates about their products, meet and share information? Core market I would say, potential goldmine to improve your products, service and stay informed about what you most passionate potential customers may want or look for.

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
