So you ring up your bank/mortgage/energy company then do the press 1 for x, press 2 for y, then again press 1,2,3,4, then another one and then off you go into the hold music, "you're call is important to us blah blah" then the music comes on for 10 seconds or so, and then there's a click and you think you've got through only for them to say "your call is important to us, an adivisor will be with you soon", back to the music. All wonderful fun Im sure you'll agree.
Ive just rung my new mortgage provider and they've dispensed with the press button 1,2 menu's four deep. Oh good you might think. No. Instead you now have to speak out loud your choices, so you can sound a complete berk in the office.
And then you have to read out your mortgage account number, date of birth and address to the automated system. Then you get through to the helpful Indian chap. Whats his first three questions?
Whats you mortgage account?
whats your date of birth?
Whats your address?
:bang::bang::bang::bang: :annoyed:
What is the bloody point? Are corporations deliberately trying to make the experience of ringing them up as annoying as possible?
/rant over!
