Title: Tired of talking to a Machine?
Post by Jimmy B. on Nov 25^th, 2005, 11:52am

Tired of calling a company that and only getting a machine that chimes every two minutes "Your call is important to Us." yeah right...

Mr Paul English has come up with a cheat sheet to get to real actual human beings at certain companies.

I'm getting this from

Guardian Unlimited and have yet to test it to see if it really works...so have fun.

Here's the Cheat Sheet http://paulenglish.com/ivr/

And if making a personal call and the person has a Bell answering service to bypass the stupid message (some people think they are so witty.......NOT) and/or any fucked up music (which they are inclined to play long and loud) just hit the pound key, it will go right to the beep. You be surprised how many people do not know this one yet. For those who still have the old fashioned answering machines especially the one with the literal 30 second beep, you should be shot, shit and pissed on. [smiley=laugh.gif]
