Getting American customer service

I plan to give this a try the next time this happens to me.  If anyone has heard of this before and tried it, did it work? 

 Now that I know it is the LAW - I will do it for sure!

 > >

 > > Any time you call an 800 number (for a credit card, banking, 

charter communications, health and other insurance, computer help desk, 

etc) and you find that you're talking to a foreign customer service 

representative (perhaps in India, Philippines, etc),

 > > please consider doing the following:

 > >

 > > After you connect and you realize that the customer service 

representative is not from the USA , (you can always ask if you are not 

sure about the accent), please, very politely (this is not about 

trashing other cultures) say, "I'd like to speak to a customer service 

representative in the United States of America ."

 > >

 > > The rep might suggest talking to his/her manager,

 > > but, again, politely say, "Thank you, but I'd like to speak to a 

customer service representative in the USA ."

 > >

 > > YOU WILL BE IMMEDIATELY CONNECTED TO A REP IN THE USA .

 > >

 > > That's the rule and the LAW.

 > >

 > > It takes less than one minute to have your call re-directed to the 

USA .

 > >

 > > Tonight when I got redirected to a USA rep, I asked again to make 

sure - and yes, she was from Fort Lauderdale .

 > >

 > > Imagine what would happen if every US citizen insisted on talking 

to only US phone reps from this day on.

 > >

 > > Imagine how that would ultimately impact the number of US jobs that 

would need to be created ASAP.

 > > If I tell 10 people to consider this and you tell 10 people to 

consider doing this - see what I mean...it becomes an exercise in viral 

marketing 101.

 > > Remember - the goal here is to restore jobs back here at home - not 

to be abrupt or rude to a foreign phone rep. You may even get correct 

answers, good advice, and solutions to your problem - in real English.
