Alternative website for phone numbers?

Greenlizard0 · 10 Jun 2009 at 21:20

What's that website which reveals what alternative phone numbers can be used for companies?

I can't deal with Odeon's appalling voice recognition service and would rather speak to somebody in person.

well praps because OCUK use a 0870 number, and are listed on there......do the math

Greenlizard0 · 10 Jun 2009 at 21:43

It's not as said OcUK I'm calling.

LOAM · 10 Jun 2009 at 22:25

I know, but thats why its in the filter

Rainmaker · 10 Jun 2009 at 22:54

Quite arsey though, what? I mean, OcUK have a large and loyal customer base. Why be pedantic over something as insignificant as the office phone number? It's not like a landline call COSTS them money, it just doesn't pay 5ppm or whatever. Whoopdey-doo lol

Not sure that's what the OP wants anyway - he wants a number for an alternative destination (i.e. a human), not an alternative number for the same destination (the automated thing).

Hitting #, * or 0 repeatedly has worked for me in the past to get to a human on the crappy automated stuff.

What movie would you like to see?
"Hrasnalsdasogjedbas."
I'm sorry, I did not recognise that request, please repeat your selection.
"mmf brrp ahh."
I'm sorry, I did not understand your request, please hold while I put you through to an advisor.

Ring ring.

hello, bob speaking, which movie would you like to see?

I wanted an alternative number to speak to a person.

Did you star that out yourself?

No I didn't - I just quoted you.

It's starred out here as it has a non 0870 number for OcUK. Mods get around filters.

Dave M · 11 Jun 2009 at 01:09

it's not in the filter, and whatever number it has is wrong - remember we moved recently.

Nope - it's done it again.

Edit - just incase you needed convincing

Hmm, definately auto-starred here.

saynoto0870.com often lists alternative numbers that go to different places. One of the numbers for BT skips the queue and goes straight through, plus it is a geographical number. It was very useful whilst trying to get a BT line installed, it's all well them telling me to call an 0800 number but on a mobile it costs, the geographic one can be covered by inclusive minutes.
