I received a misaddressed overdue bill for America Online at my home. It had my home address on it, but some stranger's name. So I called the 800-number listed on the bill to let them know about their mistake...
So guess where the call center for AMERICA Online is located? Yep, you guessed it. It's in India. Sheesh. Somehow, it seems a whole order of magnitude MORE wrong for a company with "America" in its NAME to outsource U.S. jobs overseas.

Doesn't surprise me. Over here the call centres for just about every Bank (not the NatWest, according to their ads), Building Society, Insurance Company, even BT's directory enquires, are based in India.

If they are wrongly billing people, maybe it is just safer to have the call center far, far away.
