India is losing 70 percent of call centers..R.P voice,"More neutral"

Monty Python was a series of TV comedy shows, put on by the Monty Python team. They also made a few movies. Another was Life of Brian. A good one to watch.

Yes... that's because they deserve it

Why I hear you ask... because they're French

Every time I hear someone talk with a Cockney accent, it reminds me of this. Hahahahahhaha...

Let me guess, you are one of those who say all Frenchmen are cowards/sons of cowards because they surrendered during WW2. lol.

And that Napoleon is a midget, even though he's of average height back in his times.

Nahhh you're reading too much into it. I just don't like the French, who does huh?

I'm just tongue-in-cheek really but it's almost a requirement if your English to dislike the French (even if you really don't mind them at all)

Hahahaha... I guess I have to bring out the inner English in me then.

Ah sod off you Frenchies!

Go back to France or whatever gutter you came from!

Better?

Shine ya shoes Guvvna?

Top marks!

Sure but a'ff a pence ish all ya get, boy.

Hahahahhaha...

Though Cockney also reminds me of Jason Statham. I wish I had his badass voice.

Jason Stratham!!!!! Ha!! You avin a larff or what!

The real Guvvna was a famous Cockney street fighter named Lenny Mclean...Bless his cotton socks,he`s dead now!
Actually..I think Lenny did a cameo role in one of Strathams earlier films,lock stock and 2 smoking barrels.

Oh not because they're garlic-eating, wine-swilling, lying, cheating surrender-monkeys, then!

I know another McLean who passed away some years ago. He was a street fighter too. They called him 'The Boxer.'

But that's a story for another time. lol.

No. Pretty neutral. I'm originally from Oxford.

I just don't speak American I think.

How we see the Aussies...

Hahahahahha...

But you know what Aussies call the Brits? They call you guys Pommies or POHMS. It means 'Prisoners of Her Majesty's Service.' It can also mean the shortened word for pomegranate because of how you look when you're under the sun.

But really, Aussies especially the women are in love with the British accent (doesn't matter what specifically it is, though plus points for Posh British).

Ever thought about opening your own call centre Dom?

You could call it "hear me moan"

You're right Dom, this thread reflects that, the Indians are outsourcing the work to the Philippines now because its cheaper, plus they get the bonus of better English speaking call centre boys and girls, its a win win for them.

If the Indians are outsourcing to the Philippines, wouldn't that mean a middle man is involved so it would more expensive for the customer?
I would have thought the countries in the UK are contacting call centres in the Philippines directly? Maybe I'm wrong?
