How about a female voice that repeats every 10 seconds, "Your call is important to us, and will be answered when a representative becomes available"

Drives me crazy

What about silence, with a single beep every 10 seconds or so just to remind you that you haven't been cut off yet?

*twitches with rage*

Why not get one of the ocuk musicians to compose something. If I had time I'd whip something up. I'm sure theres plenty of talented people who would give it a go.

Actually after I made my earlier post I put myself on hold and ours isn't as bad as I made out. I did quite a good job of it all!

Excellent.

Go alice go!
Boom boom boom!
Alice the camel had, two humps..."

Atleast you don't get stuck with some crap music which makes you want to put the phone down. And you get to waste a minute of the hold time choosing. :cool:

Citylink have this 16bit stuff going on, its wicked.

pitchfork · 20 Nov 2007 at 17:52

I've always wanted some thelonius monk, or maybe some frank sinatra.

Bananaphone would be hilarious, at least better than IKEA playing ABBA!

zain · 20 Nov 2007 at 21:25

Relaxing Classic (not noisey violins) or Advertise the companies products.

You should put an audio book on as hold music. Would be really random to just hear part of a book, which you have no idea what it is

What if you know what the book is, and infact very coincedently it is the book you are currently reading, but happens to be four chapters in front of where you're at.

That would **** me off royaly.
