[@antonyreed8281]

I rang virgin media 2024.... same experience ......no comedy just injustice to brits

[@SubBronze]

This is what the Virgin Media call centre is like EXACTLY.

[@vovin8132]

I'm reading these comments like they came from an Indian call centre ugh

[@Spjungen]

LOL xD This is good

[@Spjungen]

God I HATE outsourcing...

[@raidho5433]

[@mussegt]

BBC wouldn't make this today

[@hungrywolf4454]

So True 👍

[@neilramjee]

Kulvinder Ghir on voice over duties. Brilliant comedian.

[@carrroad]

Kulvinder Ghir, one of the stars of Goodness Gracious Me!

[@Beedo_Sookcool]

The man's a true vocal chameleon, a VO juggernaut.

[@brs31077]

Haha I live in Bradford and I find regardless of racial background they still have a West Yorkshire accent. I can't explain why but I always find it most strange when someone's accent doesn't match their apparent background i.e Chinese descended people with Scouse or Geordie accents. You kind of expect the stereotypical Chinese accent and you get "Ahhllreeet kidda! howay then, we gannin doon the pub?" Throws me every time lol.

[@CynicalOldDwarf]

Funny thing about this is I too lived in Bradford, and I worked in a call centre for RBS. One of my pakistani colleagues was always getting pissed off because customers kept asking to be put through to England to someone that spoke English. Their other call centres were in Birmingham and Manchester, so it always made me laugh when RBS and Natwest were using 'English call centres' as a selling point.

[@sh-hg4eg]

Yeah, haha. Irreversibly becoming a minority in your ancestral homeland is funny. Haha!

[@slushpuppie19]

​@@sh-hg4egBut it's ok when we did it in America, Australia, New Zealand? But no immigrants here please?

[@nffctrickett]

@@slushpuppie19exactly correct! It’s fine because we did it, I agree.

[@velvetinedrapes4359]

[@davh1231]

BT internet call center..lol

[@MK-qo1rz]

had this problem with 3 just the other day! even down to talking to three people! lol

[@SentinelSays]

Without question or shadow of doubt, the worst company to EVER have to deal with on the phone. I spent 10 years with 3 and had a system; every time I had a problem that I knew would be a nightmare call to deal with, I went into store and made them call in instead. Things got dealt with much quicker that way, even if it did completely inconvenience my day!

[@dadspan]

so clever!! lol

[@hemlock68]

It wouldn't be so funny if it wasn't so true.

[@slideshowrod]

Come on the canaries!

[@kreeperrock]

@giansideros I know that however i take offence to the fact they call themselves british telecomm when they outsource most of their fuckin work

[@thoomoo]

Hilarious

[@TakoyaKyono]

Chinese men with thick Belfast accents. "Ya'lright there Sham?". Cracks me up.

[@Sawrattan]

Shit, Phonejacker so ripped this off, I've never seen this until now

[@danielanderson12321]

be funny if this was still true after all these.....years...... oh....nvm

[@stupit467]

Oh god, after that it was the Cyclists

[@MrSelidor7]

@augustustoplady1. I think you might have something there. I worked for RBS (who own NatWest) and our adverts always said that you would only deal with UK call centres. What they didn't tell you that the processing work done when you called a call centre was getting sent to India. So the crappy phone jobs were kept in the UK and the actual semi-skilled banking jobs were being sent to India.

[@ahenmaxtae]

issat one of the actors from goodness gracious me doing the indian voices?

[@Taporeee]

ahenmaxtae Yes, it's Kulvinder Ghir

[@brs31077]

Haha, poor sods can't win with me. I used to see loads of black guys in fried chicken shops in London (There are about 100 KFC knock off's to a street) and think "God damn it! Stop enforcing the stereotype!" Then when other races aren't actually stereotypical, I am like "Damn it! That sounds wrong!" lol I used to have a black barman working for me, and one girl referred to 'his lot' being bad fathers' His response? "What? Men from Leeds?" in his thick Yorkshire accent. Her face was a picture!

[@RAFMnBgaming]

To be fair, Fuck Leeds with a passion.

[@sethstoll8525]

😂😂😂

[@giansideros]

@kreeperrock BT is a private entity...forget it, I shouldn't have to explain this, I can see where you're coming from, and I don't care to argue.

[@DoomKid]

LOL! indians on the phone XD....

[@SubBronze]

@franka64 Seriously, I am thinking about moving to Plusnet just so i don't have to deal with them.

[@ginosilva]

0:46

[@LSD_93]

@bulby1994 Virgin Media too? I thought TalkTalk was the worst.

[@DoctorKandosii]

You have to really nag the bastards to get put through to someone that can speak English and actually has the know-how to help you. I hate them with a dangerous passion.

[@antoniomontana95]

This is so racist. Keep making fun of us india will be a superpower anyway

[@MisaelCedillos1]

Never India is terrible overpopulated even they don’t like living there

[@ramudasanjuu]

This is 20 years old, when call centers were first transfered to India, happy times indeed. ❤
