In our weekly installment of Clients from Hell, a hilarious collection of anonymously contributed client horror stories from designers, we present “Maybe nobody likes you, bro” For previous posts, click here .
I delivered a website to a client and after one month he starts sending me angry emails that the contact form on his website doesn’t seem to work.
I check the contact form, I test it again and again and I don’t find any problem. I send them an email through the contact form.
Client: Thank you! Now it works!
The very next week they sent me again another angry email that the form had stopped working again. I run a bunch of tests but cannot find any problem, much less a solution. The form seems to be working with all the different emails I test it with.
Long story short, the form had always worked. They hadn’t tested it, and assumed that because no new clients came in through it, it was broken.
