    You could just ask to be transferred to one..
    So I come through to an India call centre, would they even have the option to transfer the call to a UK call centre? Anyone working in a bank call centre out there know?

    why dont we build a database of geographical numbers that only go to UK call centres, a bit like say no to 0870 web site but more specific

    That is a good idea, taking the serious part of what you said!;)

    I was thinking of.......
    • Internal numbers people know to get straight through to a call centre in the UK
    • Perhaps the phone number for the reception of a call centre and they can put you through to somebody
    • Changing the last numbers of the main phone number to get through to someone in UK
    • There must be ways!
    • Say NO to India and yes to Inverness (I'm taking about the call centres;))
