Hi Danielle,
I sent a complaint to the University of Sunderland, since I've experienced extremly poor customer-support, from them, when I've contacted them.
I also explained the problems today, when you called them, and was just transfered from department to department.
Hope this was alright!
Best regards,
Erik Ribsskog

Subject: Complaint to the Chief Executive of the University of Sunderland Peter Fidler/Fwd: Problems with the Gateway/Fwd: Reminder/Fwd: English-test
To: peter.fidler@sunderland.ac.uk
Hi,
I've experienced some extremly poor customer-support when I've contacted the university as a former student.
Here are some examples:
– When I contacted the Student records department, on the phone, last year, I was told that they couldn't find my file. I had to travel by train to Sunderland, to Liverpool, to get my student-number, (049039692), in the Gateway, at the City campus.
– I sent an e-mail, (which is forwarded with this e-mail), to the Gateway, on 27/7, and a reminder on 10/8, but I didn't get any answer from the Gateway.
– I then contacted Joy Taylor, (who I got the e-mail address to, when I traveled to Sunderland, and went to the Gateway there, earlier this year), and asked her who was responsible for the Gateway. She just wrote that she didn't know, and didn't bother finding this information.
– Today I was at Working Links, here in Liverpool, and Danielle there, tried to contact the University about my file from the English-test etc., (which I got the best result on), but she was just transfered from department to department.
So I'm wondering if you have problems with 'mob', at the University, that are messing with the Study Abroad-students?
I hope you have the chance to sort these problems, since I think a university, shouldn't treat people as bad as this.
Yours sincerely,
Erik Ribsskog

Ok,
what's your position at the University, if I may ask?
Who's in charge of the Gateway?

I'm sorry I am unable to help you with
your request. I do not have access to students english tests, and
unfortunately I do not know who holds this information. I will
forward your email to the student records department to see if they can
help you.

Gateway/Fwd: Reminder/Fwd: English-test
Hi,
I got your e-mail address, when I was in Sunderland, earlier
this year, regarding some problems when I called to the University,
last year, when they couldn't find me on the computer-system there,
and I've also been in contact with you, on e-mail, after that.
Now, the problem is, that the Gateway isn't answering my
e-mails.
I'm trying to get hold of a file, showing that I got the best
result, on the initial language-test, in English, that students from
abroad, have to take, at the begining of the Study Abroad year.
Since I think that a file like this, would be fine to have, when
applying for jobs, in the UK etc.
So I hoped that you could please help me with the problem, with
that the Gateway aren't answering my e-mails.
Yours sincerely,
Erik Ribsskog

Hi,
I studied at the University of Sunderland in 2004 and 2005, on
the study
abroad programme.
I had some problems with my study-finance from Norway, so I
had to end
my studies before I got my degree, due to the problems with this,
and with
my home university not wanting to accept the modules I'd chosen,
for some
reason.
But, I think it looks a bit stupid, not to have any files from
when I studied
in Sunderland, so I thought that perhaps I could try to get a
file with the
result of my English-test, that all study abroad students had to
take,
where I got the best result, so that I didn't have to take
English courses.
That file would have been very fine to have.
So I was wondering if you know who I should contact then,
that has to do
with files like this, at the Language-study department.
Thanks in advance for the help!
Yours sincerely,
Erik
Ribsskog
