they're alright on the phone, and online,
but the people they employ are horrid.

I spoke to Barclaycard on the phone recently
and the chap I spoke to (in India maybe?) was named 'Ronaldo Fernandez'. Funny, because he didn't have the latin twang that you imagine a Ronaldo Fernandez to have.

Best one I ever had was 'hallo my name is Steve Davis'.
I properly laughed at him.

A friend of mine worked for the UK arm of a call centre company
He said they had about 12 David Beckhams and 8 Alan Shearers in their India office.

no wonder no one could understand anything said

this is funny yeah, because normally you can't understand what's said as the telephone operator is Indian and as such has a thick Indian accent
but what I'm inferring is that as the workers were called Alan Shearer and Davis Beckham then they were hard to understand due to their respective estuary and Geordie accents!!

Wow, what are the chances of that?

I had some Indian fella giving it the 'hallo my name is Dave' the other day.
I insisted he call me Sanjay. When he said 'That is not your name' I pointed out he started the whoke fake-name thing first and no, I didn't have time to do his survey.
