    Hi and welcome to the forum I didn't know we still had call centers here in the UK when I ring one it always seems to be answered some where on the Indian sub-continent by someone called Gary, he really wants to help as well unfortunately no matter how many hours we spend discussing my broadband connection my free phone line still doesn't work, but Gary has become almost a family member now.

    i've made many calls to calls centres in the last week or so (tax creds, bulldog isp, barclays,lastminute.com) and all the people i spoke to sounded like brits to me, i think your gary is a dying breed now

    as for working in the uk, you will probably need a workpermit, and there not easy to get any more

    I keep getting this Gary bloke all the time, when I try to contact BT Internet and my Bank.....
    Usually I end up putting the phone down because I can't understand a word he says and he hasn't got a clue about what I want him to do....

    A definite language barrier, maybe.....

    My favourite call centre is the one for Intercontinental Hotels. If you call in the evening, which i invariably do, you will be connected to a call centre in Manila.

    As mentioned, you will need a work permit to work here - not easy to get!

    Toks
    Be responsible with little so that you can be trusted with much!!
