funny you should say that because I have noticed an increasingly large amount of adverts on TV now advertising UK based call centers to the point that I don't actually know what is being advertised (Coca Cola or car insurance?) and what is good about that brand/company apart from the fact that they have UK call centers. And just to prove a point, on Sky it is insurance adverts/sue/claim adverts galore to the point that it just becomes a blur but the one that has stood out to me which I noticed this morning was LVE car insurance and that was because they were primarily advertising UK call centers and that is it, and I must admit that as a selling feature (which it even shouldn't be considered as one) it is something which appeals to me now because of the poor experience I have had with indian call centers (albeit from a a different business sector). I don't know what proportion of businessed or types of businesses use foreign call centers but I am fortunate in that all the people i need to ring for my mobile phone (car phone warehouse) and car insurance (priviledge) are all UK. As stupid as it sounds, if i was looking for another provider for something and I found out they didn't use UK call centers, I wouldn't go with them out of principal. The french wouldn't like using UK call centers so why should UK peops tolerate non-UK call centers?
