now I'm in the mood to call a call centre

2016-07-06 19:28:51 UTC  

lol I'm doing that right now

2016-07-06 19:29:13 UTC  

recording it too incase they tell me some bullshit so I can prove I got bamboozled

2016-07-06 19:29:24 UTC  

I'd always hang up on people who drop that on me

2016-07-06 19:29:31 UTC  

it's illegal to not announce it in the UK

2016-07-06 19:29:35 UTC  

at the very start of the call

2016-07-06 19:29:42 UTC  

so they'd sometimes be like "BTW I'M RECORDING YOOO"

2016-07-06 19:29:46 UTC  

15 minutes in

2016-07-06 19:29:59 UTC  

I'd tell them they just broke the law and hang up

2016-07-06 19:30:01 UTC  

lol whatever I don't wanna get fucked over by this company again

2016-07-06 19:30:09 UTC  

just say it at the very start

2016-07-06 19:30:28 UTC  

don't know Canadian laws but it's totally illegal to do that in the UK without letting the other party know

2016-07-06 19:30:46 UTC  

is it possible that that will get me better service since they know I have a recording

2016-07-06 19:30:53 UTC  

sure, if you're nice

2016-07-06 19:31:00 UTC  

being nice and polite is 100% best way to do it

2016-07-06 19:31:06 UTC  

those people get shouted at 9-5

2016-07-06 19:31:12 UTC  

someone being nice is a godsend

2016-07-06 19:31:19 UTC  

I hate dealign with folks on the phone when I'm pissed off

2016-07-06 19:31:22 UTC  

fug

2016-07-06 19:31:27 UTC  

because I feel like I'm taking it out on them

2016-07-06 19:31:29 UTC  

the automated system hung up on me

2016-07-06 19:31:34 UTC  

I know

2016-07-06 19:31:43 UTC  

it's never them, it's the company

2016-07-06 19:31:44 UTC  

I actually was on the phone with royal mail because they shipped an item via fucking surface mail to the USA instead of on a plane

2016-07-06 19:31:55 UTC  

and he was talking about something being policy because of customs

2016-07-06 19:32:10 UTC  

and I remarked that it's fucking stupid, but made sure to interject

2016-07-06 19:32:17 UTC  

I'm not saying you're stupid

2016-07-06 19:32:28 UTC  

just that the inconsistent policy is

2016-07-06 19:32:40 UTC  

but royal mail is a whole different level of fucking retards

2016-07-06 19:32:46 UTC  

yeah royal mail is a tough one

2016-07-06 19:32:49 UTC  

and scamming bastards

2016-07-06 19:32:50 UTC

2016-07-06 19:32:59 UTC

2016-07-06 19:33:02 UTC

2016-07-06 19:33:13 UTC

2016-07-06 19:33:19 UTC  

if you think people are mad at royal mail

2016-07-06 19:33:21 UTC  

sounds about right for a uk courier company tbh

2016-07-06 19:33:23 UTC  

yodel is next level

2016-07-06 19:33:33 UTC
