The government, the BBC and digital TV
I'm sure many of you are sick and tired of the major hype that the BBC are making with regards to it's digital TV and radio services (patronising adverts in nearly every BBC break).

How about starting a thread about foreign call centres, and if there were enough of us, perhaps we could start boycotting them.

Thought I'd put this on more for a laugh at my brother in law's expense really. He's just got himself a loan with Barclays and is very proud of himself that he managed to beat them down from an outrageous 16.9% to a more reasonable 5.6%. Now BIL gets a over-excited sometimes when he's telling a tale but he can't tell…
