Pretty accurate.

My fav thing to do with an Indian support tech is to make small talk. They don't know quite what to do if you get them off their script.

Oh baloney. My wife is Indian. She thinks its just as much fun toying with them as I do. Hell, my nephew works in a call center in New Delhi.

Mumbling things in Hindi to them is BIG fun. They are torn because they're not sure if they should respond in Hindi.

If you complain long enough to HP's call center, they will put you through to at least a Canadian who speaks english well.

I remember when customer service meant something.

America, we have to only pick companies that have call centers in the US.
That is the main reason I stopped buying Dell!!
