This Eclectic Life had a very funny post on trying to get past an automated system to reach a human. We’ve all been there.
Shelly found this site, Get Human 500 Database, which gives ways to get around these automated systems and move straight to a human voice.
I thank you, my family thanks you and my friends thank you. We all complain about voice mail/recordings and the site will be very helpful.
Glad to be of help!
Wouldn’t it be wonderful if there was a similar site for France!
