Gah!! Me too... except for when the call drops. My phone provider is doing their best to stop me from leaving. BUT I think I've found a backdoor way of getting my PAC and getting the hell away from them and their shitty service.

Good luck!

Your call is very important to us which is why we are ignoring it, transferring it to our office in Timbuktu saving it to enjoy it later. Please hold the line till the cows come home, our nap is over our next representative is hired, free. Until then enjoy a recorded advertisement for services you'll need to speak to our friendly representatives to receive, alter or cancel. To receive this message in Spanish - oprima dos. To retain your sanity hang up and forget about it, because we will.

"We are currently experiencing higher than expected call volume. This should not surprise you. We are always currently experiencing higher than expected call volume. Nobody ever actually looked at the numbers to figure out how many people might call at any given moment, and we're staffed by one person and a bunny. The bunny is on break."

"Your call is important to us" Not!

Hahaha, well, if their other customers are as good at paying the bills as I am I can understand why they are understaffed....
