Just a heads up: If you click to talk to support on the coles webpage and type "talk to agent" it no longer sends you to a 'real' person anymore, it still sends you to an AI bot but gives the bot a 'human-like' randomised name.. You can tell it's a bot as it types a huge long sentence with your name and details in a fraction of a second..

Never mind the fact that people are going to die from this sooner or later, sharp plastic through your food WILL tend to cause that if left unchecked by management.. 🤦‍♂️ 🤦‍♀️ 🤦 #Coles #CustomerServiceFail #FoodSafety
