AI ‘accent masking’ at overseas call centres sparks union backlash in Canada

It's 2026 and so many business phone lines are extremely poor quality, cut in and out, have distortion and static. And many play hold music or recordings that have a bitrate in single digits.
It quite literally scrambles my brain and makes me unable to think. Luckily for most of those businesses I will simply hang up before I get angry but it's a simple fix that can really pay off if you cared enough to bother.

Call centre operator that won major Centrelink contract paid no corporate tax for two years
The Perth-headquartered company, Telco Services Australia, generated more than $185m in revenue in 2024-25 but reported no taxable income, new financial documents show.
The year before, it reported $130m in income and also paid zero tax.
The two-year reporting period coincides with the company’s multi-year $90m-plus contract to run call centre operations for Services Australia, the agency responsible for social security.

"We are currently experiencing higher than usual calls" (on every #callcentre I have dialled in the last year) loosely translated means "we have got rid of lots of staff and you suckers are paying the price"

If you've ever driven along Burwood Hwy in Melbourne, you've probably passed Telstra's telemarketing call centre on the corner of Station St (near Deakin Uni). Internally it is/was known as the NTC (National Telemarketing Centre), or Proactive Sales. #Telstra #telemarketing #Auspol #CallCentre

Call centres.
Enhancing Customer Experience Of Phone Wait Time:
—
"There are 4 people waiting ahead of you.""The wait time is 7 minutes."
"We can call you back, in the order your call was received."
—
Detracting From Customer Experience:
—
"By calling us, you consent to being recorded.""Listen carefully, as options have changed."
"Your call is important to us."
"You can self-serve by using our website."
"We don't tolerate abuse."

Many companies offer a self-serve website and a call centre.
I researched why some customers use a website when the call centre is open. It could be:
• Privacy. Calling where others may overhear.
• Policy. Phones at work are banned.
• Hedging. Use website WHILE waiting on hold, until a call-centre rep answers.
• Barriers. Poor language skill or speaking ability.
• Cost. Phone, fees.#UX #UXResearch #UR #language #ESL #privacy #speed #wait #CallCentre #CallCenter #website #SelfServe #support

On the Walmart website, I could not find a way to update my credit card. The #callcentre was closed, so I used the #chat. After a 20 minute wait, I was told that I can change my #billing details, but only over the phone. So I called in when they were open. After a 40 minute #wait, they say they can't change my #payment method, so my order for ~$1000 will be cancelled.
And, no, they won't reactivate the coupon I used.
Unfortunately, #Walmart is our best hope for competition with #Amazon.
