talking on the phone tonon BRITIS?

I have recently had a problem with ORANGE BROADBAND taking money out of my account 2 days early and my bank charging me £28 because my bill fell on a Sunday. When I phoned them I could not understand the girl (non British) as usual. all my other direct debits (sky, BT etc ) when they are due over the past 4 yrs have come out on the monday when they they are due over the weekend.anyone else agree??? when I phoned up as usual I got a Non- British and I couldnt understand them. Who else is ascared of phoning up about a problem with their operator because they are sick of not hearing their own accent or a foreign one as usual. I am sick as F*ck not hearing our own language in OUR OWN COUNTRY. But least of it is being charged 2 days early cause ORANGE are too hard up to what til MONDAY. I am Trying to make oRANGE PAY FOR MY bANK CHARGES. THINK IT WILL WORK ??????

    Hi there little Bluebinjulie

    Yep ! I've had some awkward occasions with these people out in India or wherever.

    As someone else said, I think that a lot of Brit. firms are changing back to native English speakers.

    banks are al law unto themselves, as for non brits on the phone I think a lot of UK companies are doing away with this cheap labour and bringing it back to home.

    tell them firmly that you wish to speak to someone with a good command of english ..... works for me !
