People were impressed with his ''brilliant'' idea
Bengaluru, the start-up capital of India, has a well-documented culture of innovation and entrepreneurship. In recent times, this city has also become the subject of several memes that highlight things that could happen only in Bengaluru. The latest entrant to "peak Bengaluru" behavior is a man who was so frustrated with dealing with customer care representatives that he sent a delivery service agent to handle his complaint.
The hilarious incident was brought to the internet's notice by Twitter user Shankar Ganesh. In a tweet, he shared how a man residing in Bengaluru hired services from Swiggy Genie or Dunzo, to convey his complaint at an Apple Store about a product. When the agent reached the store, the customer talked to the Apple representative through his phone, instead of making that call himself, and saving himself the hassle.
"A person sent a Dunzo or Swiggy Genie guy to the Imagine Apple Store here and spoke to the staff through his phone (to bypass centralized call centers). Just @peakbengaluru things I guess," read the caption.
