    Virgin Media Manila callcentre.

    I'm with Virgin, and every month or so I'll get a call with an unmistakeable accent.

    Now normally telesales would get short thrift from me, but these charming young ladies are rewarded with a very chatty customer who always needs a callback cos he can't make up his mind.

    Not just young ladies graham,I got a guy,bayot/bakla call him what you will,I called him Rey because thats what he told me his name was,I had a chat with him,told him I was going to Manila,he asked with who,I said on my own,he said he would be my tour guide and used to ring me weekly under the guise of changing a contract or offering me a new-deal



    Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.
    The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the passion that she shows to the outside world.

    I've got everything except a mobile phone with them, so they may be in luck yet.

    I don't believe that

    My Elaine was working in a call centre dealing with Aussies, she says she used to get at least one dirty old man trying it on with her everyday

    Girls usually say it's not the size of your package that counts but how you use it.....forget the Sports channels, get the Rom Coms and daytime chat channels, they love that

    No wonder you're having to look elsewhere.

    I'm with Virgin media too. Not had them call me yet, but had to call them last Sunday as a couple of the channels were not working. I spoke to a nice lady then who was very helpful. Not sure where that call centre was though? When I had to phone them with some internet technical problems (I was suddenly receiving loads of dodgey spam emails) around a year ago and I'm sure they sounded Indian. They were not so helpful, cut me off twice and i ended up with a big phone bill! They said something couldn't be done, when I found myself after that it could be done!

    They've only been calling me to try and sell me a mobile phone package. (The accent immediately gives their location away)
    I'm sure when I've phoned THEM with queries I've ended up in India though.
