Look for a website called something like say no to offshore callcentres etc, I was told about it haven't had time to look for it...similar exists for premium numbers.

I did have a look: it's based offshore!

Don't get me started on call centres.

Just wasted an hour being bounced around More Than's UK and Indian call centres.

Grrr.

Why do British Gas...

BG are crap, that's why. Useless, moronic, imbeciles with the remnants of failed genetic experiments working for them.

Why do British Gas feel the need to call me every 2-3 days to arrange a weekday appointment for my boiler to be serviced, even though I've told them on the 5 previous occasions they've called that myself and the Mrs Chicane work Monday-Friday? Every time they say that they'll look into sorting out a weekend appointment, and every time I receive another call a couple of days later.

Seriously, it amazes me that whilst the reality of both adults in a household working full-time is perhaps 30 years old, virtually every utility company and public service in the UK seem to have failed to wake up to this.
