When you call support tech they know everything what to do in a book or something? How does one like myself get the same book or info they do when they are talking to you over the phone? I would like to have the same informaion they have.

Thank you

Hi,
Customer Service Reps and Tech Support have manuals listed on their computers while they are talking with you.
Yes, They can search for a particular topic, until they find what your issue is; and give you an answer.
I was a Customer Care Representative for a short time for a well-known cell phone company, and the info we had was not to be emailed to customers.
You will have to find your own info on the web, using Google or any other search engine.
These computerized manuals are not available to the public.
Best wishes,
fredg

It is true that support techs generally do have a script of troubleshooting tips that they go through to help diagnose and/or fix the problem. These scripts will vary from company to company and from product to product. Whether this script is available to the public depends on the company and/or product. You would have to ask the techs whether you can get a copy as it might be proprietary company info.

Many companies have knowledge bases that are used by support techs and can be used by customer. A great example of this is the Microsoft Knowledge Base (MSKB) available at support.microsoft.com.

But a lot of techs have their own knowledge and experience to draw on. I don't use a script when helping people. I read/listen to their question/problem. I may then ask questions to help pinpoint the problem based on my experience. From there I can offer troubleshooting procedures, pull a solution from my experience or do further research.
