the number you need to phone is one tree sewen tree nine.
Now I love India but sometimes it`s ruddy hard work with the call centres.
And as for UK centres??? For advice about this press 1
For advice about that press 2
For other matters please press 3
Thank you for calling-we will now put you on hold and play musak for an eternity.
Thank you for calling for a repeat menu please press the # key.
Thank you for calling,if you are now close to insanity due to being on hold listening to musak please press 4
This will send a sudden bolt through your phone putting you out of your misery
Funnily enough I had one of those this afternoon. Thank heavens for cordless phones because at least you can be doing other things while you have it lodged under your chin.
The bit where they say 'your call is important to us' really grates because if it is why don't they get more staff
