I hate the way that they cannot deviate from their script.
Do what I do close every account you come across with a foreign call centre. If everyone did this they would soon get the message that good service doesn't equate to exploiting some poor sod for peanuts

swindonseagull said:The reason the call centres are in india is the Low daily wage.India is cheap to live so therefore wages are less. So its not exploitation of the workforce at all.its the companys saving money by moving to a cheaper workforce..its called econimics. NOT Exploitation, could you imagine what the world would be like if a worker in India demanded British wages to live in India?
The demands here and elsewhere would just rise ..
some areas of the world are cheaper, like some areas of the Uk are cheaper than other areas.
Why do you think Indians and others work in the UK? and send money home??

Half the people I worked with at ntl would have had problems using teletext, never mind sorting out a digital TV service...
