I just makes them sound even more patronising.

Got off a call then, a simple one about my bill, and it ended up in me hanging up. I simply asked "why are you putting on that awful accent" the reply, "I don’t know what you are talking about sir", in a full on Indian accent!

What on earth are they being told to do out there! its seriously making Virgin Media’s brand look like some primary school science project and it should be stopped - but it wont!
as Ben says, you got through to our Manilla call centre. They learn American English there, so pick up the accent.

That was very rude of you to say that to the agent too, IMHO.
