That bloody woman on British Telecom who informs you that the number you have dialed is engaged. And could you please try again later. Does my head in every time!
Along the same lines the 118 number where they ask you if you would like them to connect you to the number you have asked for. 30p a minute.
It takes yonks to get the number out of the smug barsteward so you still pay through the nose anyway.
Tony B'liar. Enough said.
