Title: You are position 17 in the queue
Post by: klondike on March 07, 2022, 04:57:10 PM
Missed that my home insurance was set to auto renew. If possible I'll avoid or reset these. Renewal comes through. Plenty of better options. Especially if getting cashback.

Phone to cancel autorenew.
You are [big number] in queue press 1 and we will call you back.
They didn't.

Try live chat.
You are 7 in queue.
5 minutes later still got a stupid spinning gizmo. Still 7 in queue.

Phoned again 29 minutes ago. Down to two in queue now. Expecting to be cut off any time soon.

If they ask why I don't want to renew I'll tell them it's because they take too long to answer the phone and have the most annoying repetitive hold music I have ever encountered.

32 minutes. Still 2 in queue. This bloody hold music will probably be haunting me tomorrow.

36 minutes. 1 in queue. Whoopydo.

I bet the poor sods on the phones get some stick even though it isn't their fault. What a job.  :worried:

Almost as bad as those cold call centres trying to sell you what you don't want.  :nooo:

I thought you were talking about my GP surgery.

No I run out of credit usually listening to mine's prerecorded message telling me to bugger off. I just use Livi instead.
