I spoke to tom tom people the other day, and surprise, surprise she was actually English, but based in the Netherlands a most enjoyable experience speaking to someone that I could actually understand!!!

My sister phoned British Gas regarding her electric and gas bills last week, to ask why they were both read separately and she received two bills from the same company.............

At the end of the conversation she asked the person at the other end of the phone if she was working from Britain.............. no, was the answer. ... South Africa ! :-0

I had one today here in Spain.
Said his name was John Watson, from Microsoft but he sounded very Indian to me.
OH thought I was being really rude when I put the phone down on him, but OH is Spanish & this is all relatively new to them.

Twice in two days I have had those nice people who ring you from India get angry and slam the phone down on me.

If I am not careful they will be taking me off their list.

It is quite surprising that I am on here at all because the lady told me my computer would be blocked in fifteen minutes and that was a couple of hours ago. She must have forgotten or be too upset to be doing it!
