Spare a thought for this BT operator.Slightly O/T

Apparently BT wanted to give this customer his free 2meg line upgrade.
I must warn, Beware of bad language.
I wonder how the operator kept his cool LOL.

Em that phone calling monkey your referring was apparently trying to inform the madman that he would be getting his 2 meg free upgrade.
So you would tell them to f-off too?

Why does he need to tell him this ? It's obvious when you double your bandwidth. Do you like telesales people phoning you ? did you notice how persistent he was..typical telesales action.

It was nothing to do with offering him a free DSL upgrade, that .wav is years old.. it was from a BT telesales rep cold-calling people who'd switched to another operator for their calls, to try and get them back.

Moving this to, erm... after hours.. aswell.

It's been going around for years...

Yep that's an old classic. I like to derive extra humour from it by imagining that the two people actually live next door to each other.

wtf is wrong with his voice?

Its pretty funny alright, but i do feel sorry for the BT guy, everyone has to make a living, you shouldnt have to take that level of abuse just to make a few quid. I work in eircoms call centre here (thankfully not cold calling people but taking calls) and even that is probably the most stressful, irritating job imaginable, and ive not even had any calls that bad so far

Your lucky. Got a few calls that I couldn't fix, and although it wasn't as much swearing, it was the same "I payed X a year, fix my f*cking space" BS, even though our section didn't even do that :mad:
Also, you have to tell the customer these things, as most of them* are kinda dumb.

*I won't say where I worked, so I won't get into trouble
