THANK YOU ZOOM

[Allabord4Jah]

NOT SURE IF THIS GOES IN HERE, SORRY FOR CAPS, I BROKE MY WRIST AND CANNOT TYPE IT NORMAL.

THIS MORNING I GOT THIS EMAIL FROM A SISTER IN MY CONG., SHE SAID SHE VERIFIED IT, THATS IT'S A TRUE STORY.  I HOPE SO, CAUSE RIGHT NOW I CAN'T VERIFY IT MYSELF.  SEE BELOW

 

Hi, want to share this experience with you.  It was verified. Got it this morning:

I got this from SONSO yesterday. I checked snopes.com. & they had nothing so for now take it as real.



"A sister in Brooklyn, while doing zoom witnessing with her congregation, decided to write a letter to Zoom to thank them for how they have helped us all through this quarantine. So she looked for an email and saw that the customer service email comes with a statement that due to high volume of requests, no one is able to read the emails. She wanted a human to read her letter so she decided to find the CEO’s email address. It was hard work, and she kept looking on different websites without giving up and found it. She emailed him (the letter was beautiful!) a loving letter, thanking him, identifying herself as a JW, telling him how it has helped us remain encouraged and united and helped us continue our preaching and teaching work and she thanked him for keeping the basic 40minute plan free and how this was so different than other corporate greed that is seen in the world today. Under her signature, she referred him to jw.org. Then she took the time and translated it into Spanish and sent both versions to the CEO.



30 minutes later, she was out walking her dog, and the CEO wrote her back personally! He thanked her for her kind letter and how much he appreciated her taking the time to write him and how happy he was that Zoom was able to help keep so many people connected and encouraged. She was so happy, she didnt know what to do, and looked up at the sky and said a prayer of thanks to Jehovah.



A few minutes later, she received another email. This was from a Brother who works at zoom, who had been hired when the company first started up. He said the CEO had forwarded her emails to all 2000 US Employees!!! What a fine witness this young sister gave to so many people!”

I hope it is true, but time will tell. I was reading an article recently about the history of Zoom, and it mentions how religious groups are big users of Zoom.

This fits nicely with this experience. Sadly though, too many times an experience turns out to be an unverified anecdotal account. For example, to get the private email address of the CEO of Zoom is a big hurdle. And why translate the email to Spanish? The CEO is from the Hong Kong area...?

 

Below is the article. In the mean time I'll wait for verification before broadcasting this info.

PS Hope your wrist heals well. We do not mind if you type in lowercase. It is easier to read. ALLCAPS IS LIKE SHOUTING. LOL vs lol

I have to agree.  I did not pass this on when I received it for the same reason Tony mentioned.  I also had read the article about the CEO's rise to fame with Zoom, and had questioned why you would need to translate the email into Spanish for a Chinese-American.  We all hope it is true.

Our visiting speaker mentioned this during the week we had a regular meeting between the Fri and Sat Convention sessions - only he said that the Branch had written Zoom ... I did not pass it along since I do not know just how it came about. The Brother who gave our talk is a substitute CO - I would hope he verified the source before he related it ... but I really don't know for sure.

 

Seems someone may have written a letter and a brother who works for Zoom received it in company email ... not sure who wrote it.

[well]

I was also having big question mark when I heard about translating the letter to Spanish... AFIKN, the CEO came from China and he understands English

I've heard about this some weeks ago.

It is actually very very easy to find the email address of a ceo. 

 

In fact I have found an email address of the ceo of zoom already based on this post.

 

My father contacts ceos regularly to get a resolution to problems all the time. You may be amazed at what can be achieved. 😉

No confirmation of this story as there are some issues as mentioned by others.  But its easier than you may think.
