Sitting listening to the canned music for an hour to an hour-and-half… I wonder what is the percentage of people who call this vital service vs how many live to get a live person?! (Yes, I have done this way too many times in the past few months!)
A couple of years ago, I saw the best description of one of those phone menus ever! “I finally got through and then had to punch in all the digits of pi to get any help”.
This is the price we pay for capitalism, no human response, and phone calls that we’ve wasted hours of our time and money on, with absolutely no results.
What type of phone does Jon have? There’s a circle in the middle at the top, so what phone is that? Or is it just Jim Davis trying to draw a random cell phone?

What will you get if you press three?
AllishaDawn over 3 years ago
I usually press 0 until it says ‘hold please’, and then I get an actual person.

Down here where I live, the first option is what language do I want to hear things in…

These days they have voice recognition, so that you don’t have to press a button. So I just keep repeating customer service until I get a person.

Mostly honest, but still deceptive enough to call themselves “Customer Service.”

Call 1-800-Collect (if that’s still around), maybe that would work.
