Ooh! ^This^
Along with "actually" and the overuse of reflexive pronouns (e.g. Can I take a few minutes to discuss a personal loan/new car/insurance policy/mobile phone contract with yourself?) this is one of the prime causes of twattish sales people.
Somehow, somewhere along the line, twats in sales came up with the idea that saying basically, actually, and yourself/myself/ourselves a lot made them sound more professional. Rather than just twats.

^This too^
It's bad enough when it's an off-duty middle manager at a beer festival asking his mates whether they'd like to go for another pint of Old Nun's Discharge.
When it's a teenager in a Burton's suit trying to ingratiate themselves into some commission, they're being a twat of the first order.
