I got a phone call yesterday, I think it was from Origin Energy (South
Australia).
Phone rings
Me - Hello
Recorded message - Hello, I'm sorry that I had to put you on hold ...
I hung up.

It's past being put on hold when calling someone, the machines are now
calling you.

Nothing will change if people don't complain.
Visit their Web site; let them know.

I've been making complaints to broadcasting companies about these huge
graphics that are appearing in programs. not happy with just station ID
(which is now displayed almost constantly), some channels dump huge,
distracting garbage on us.

I agree about the onscreen crap.Very annoying.

Nothing will change if those type of calls result in sales.
