Re: Bleeding voice recognition software
I tried an American accent. No joy. I also tried keeping quiet to try and force me through to a human. Unfortunately I have a cough and kept coughing at an inopportune moment. "I'm sorry, I don't understand. Please can you spell that."
My undoing was the landlords name -Ralph. Rarlf, Raarlf, Raarlfff. |

You want to have a go using "On Star"...that is literally hours of amusement.
At least with that one, it doesn't understand people from Maine either :lol: |

Sorry, don't understand. Probably being a bit thick!

Re: Bleeding voice recognition software
My phone was equally useless unless I put on a dreadful American accent. I couldn't even say "Call Nikki" without it acting as if I just farted at it. Luckily I managed to change the setting to British and it worked fine.
It used to be that you could skip the menu systems by just pressing zero a few times and then it would put you through to a real person, but too many people worked that out. |

Suspect a reference to a certain actor. While it is spelled Ralph Feinnes, it's pronounced, "Throat Warbler Mangrove"
