Quoted: are researching a move to the Phillipeans. Firstly, it is spelled Phillipines. Named after King Phillipe of Spain. It was claimed that the various species of pine trees were King Phillip's Pines. Therefore Phillipines. Secondly, call center is where most of the customer service is done. It is basically a part of an organization where all call are funeled thru. This make the other depts more efficient in doing their jobs rather than spending their time answering calls. Most large service oriented organizations will have call centers. I.E. cable companies, telephone companies, etc. |

And, don't forget the hated telemarketers!
Offshore locations allow them to continue operations after state or national laws are created to prevent their efforts. |

A call center is where you call to get a call girl.

A call center is a place where your call is ignored in the order it was received.

Well, I'm an engineer working for a company that develops Voice over IP Call Center solutions, and the news doesn't surprise me in the least.
Many companies are moving their Call Center operations to overseas locations (India is particularly popular) due to the inexpensive labor. |

Quoted: A call center is a place where your call is ignored in the order it was received. My bride runs a call center for Ikon office solutions. She's run them all over for various companies. It takes a special person to manage a group of people who basically are on the phone all day, usually answering people who have problems, are late on payments, or are pissed off. The people who work in non-technical call centers are often underpaid and it shows in their behavior. It's a bunch of people who get yelled at all day by customers and take it out on each other. I wouldn't want one.. they are sometimes called Help Desks! Cheers |

0ne of the biggest complaints my wife says she gets about india from card members is that they can't understand them! she said some told her if the keep calling and getting them people from india that they where going to cancell there card. wages are cheaper eventually everthing is going to be moved overseas and we all are going to be unemployed so then who is going to buy there stuff or use there credit cards. |
