Outlaw Pete 2,224 Posted June 2, 2013 Report Share Posted June 2, 2013 I wanted to top up my phone, yesterday. Seemed I'd forgotten my log in details. So I rang O2 to ask them. Now, I must say, it seemed to take half the night, listening to 'the following options' and pressing 2. But, how lovely it was, finally, to hear a female voice with a trace of Irish accent saying " My name is Linda. How may I help you? " It was great! We then proceeded to communicate like two human beings who shared a common language. I understood every word she spoke and never once had to ask her to repeat herself. Best of all, once she'd sorted my problem, I was able to say, " Thank you very much for your help, Linda. " Because I'd heard and understood her name in the first place. What an absolutely delightful change from " Hullo. My nem is Rasheed ..... " Nice work, O2 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Malt 379 Posted June 2, 2013 Report Share Posted June 2, 2013 You sure she was Irish Pete, what with you and your recent hearing aid troubles? You might get a nasty surprise over the next few days when a brand new and very expensive million minute a month contract lands on your doormat! Don't phone sky then,Good evening my name is Gupta ,how can I mess up your broadband,wankers I find Sky hit and miss. Either I get a very softly spoken Scottish voice when I phone or I get some Indian dude asking me how the weather is then proceeding to tell me how shite his is because it's the monsoon season when I automatically return the pleasantry! I get less Indians now since I don't use sky broadband any more though, maybe their Indian call centres deal with the bulk of the internet stuff and their British ones deal with the TV..

I mean, if anyone takes issue with anything I put on an internet forum then it's more fool them right ? I'm a 22 year old boy, from the valleys with a mouth bigger than it should be, if anyone gets upset because of me they seriously need to grow the f**k up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
