38 Corporate Circle
New York, NEW YORK 12203

+1 518 452-1242
+1 518 862-9519

Does this number work to get to customer service? BTW, 12203 is NOT New York City, it's Albany, which would match the 518 area code.

Thanks for spotting that...I found the number and address here. The address is formatted incorrectly, but it does say Albany in there, so the phone number should still work to reach TWE corporate.

Is there still a number for Priceline that goes straight to real live human being? There used to be one, but now when you call Pricline you have to enter your bid number and enter just the right selections options and listen to about 15 mins of recordings before you MIGHT have a chance of speaking to a real live warm blooded human being.

There used to be one, but now when you call Pricline you have to enter your bid number and enter just the right selections options and listen to about 15 mins of recordings before you MIGHT have a chance of speaking to a real live warm blooded human being.The number they list on their site is 1-800-774-2354. One trick that usually works to get out of a maze of touch-tone menus is to keep hitting zero over and over. Usually after about 10 seconds you'll get transferred to a real person. YMMV.

If that doesn't work, try swearing. Seriously.

University of Southern California researchers are working on software that switches from automated telephony to a live operator by sensing that a caller is angry, which could boost customer loyalty if the technology can be practically applied. USC professor Shrikanth Narayanan explains that a great deal of emotional information is communicated within the speech signal of spoken language: "The energy of the signal is one cue, the speech rate is another cue and there's also lexical information such as swear words," he notes.

Thanks for creating this thread. I just got off the phone with Amazon about a book that hadn't arrived, and they're sending a replacement.

PS. If I understand this correctly, this is their highest level of customer care, and I would only use this as my last resort. I say this because; they have access to all the purchases and all other stuff with just my phone number/customer number, so YMMV.
