I'm looking for a *geographic* equivalent of 0845 330 9876.
If they are going to keep me on hold for hours at a time I don't want
to pay for the privilege!
TIA,
Steph
You think that's bad? I spent *ages* (6 cycles of Pachelbel's Canon) on
hold to their sales line, which is 0870 and therefore costs even more!
That's pretty rubbish.
Since I first posted I have learned of a fantastic geographic number
through a popular website that often gets mentioned in uk.telecom. I
won't name the site or quote the number for fear of it being blocked -
you will be able to find it fairly easily with a bit of Googling.
The number is GOLDEN! London geographic number, goes straight through
to a human being, no menus, no rubbish, no nothing. Appears to jump
the call queue too as it is answered instantly (although it may just
be that there is no queue). As I said, not going to post it openly in
here as it might get cut off. But trust me, it's _well_ worth five
minutes of your time to find it...
