I want to speak to a human being not a machine...

I`ve just about given up, this my last resort.
How do I get to speak to a "human being" at BT in the UK (not a call centre, I can`t understand a word they are saying........)
I`ve been on their website and that does not help whatsoever.
I have an enquiry about an unrecognised outgoing number on my telephone bill.
. . . it must be remembered that the sea is a great breeder of friendship. Two men who have known each other for twenty years find that twenty days at sea bring them nearer than ever they were before, or else estrange them.

I understand your frustration about wanting to speak to a human .... been there myself !
However, regarding your "enquiry" about a logged outgoing phone number ....
Even if you did manage to get somebody  ... I doubt very much whether they would be able to help you much,
other than to say ... yep, you made the call, or nope ... you didn't .... but probably the former, as it's all automatic, with no human intervention.  
Been there as well ....

    This is not Apple Technical Support. If you want to talk to Apple, you'd need to use the information provided using the Contact Us link at the bottom right of every page.
    This is a user-to-user forum. Most of us posting here are human beings.

  • Has anyone else managed to speak to a human being in the App Review team

    I have had my app rejected twice on the basis that they think all the functionality can be incorporated in an epub format even though the epub format explicitly can't support what my app does. But every time I try and contact the team, it is only allowed via email (with very long waits for responses) and I just a standard script response, e.g
    "2.21: Apps that are simply a song or movie should be submitted to the iTunes store. Apps that are simply a book should be submitted to the iBookstore".
    Even when I appealed I just got the same script back and I keep being told that I can't talk to a human being.
    Has anyone actually managed to speak to a member of staff in the App Review Team and could you give me some advice as to how I can do this. The process has been dragging on and all I need is a 10-minute discussion with a human being,
    Thanks,
    Dave

    Thanks KT.
    I did get a phone call after a few days and it did end up as a useful conversation.
    I do think though that there should be contact numbers so that developers can actually ring a named individual in the App Review Team. I was really surprised that the Apple switchboard said that they were unable to connect incoming callers to specific teams or members of staff. As a Customer Service experience it seems pretty poor.
    Anyway, the member of staff in the Review Team was helpful and we are making some of the suggested changes and resubmitting the App.
    In terms of ePub functionality, it actually can't do everything the App can do as there is no way within an ePub of changing navigation based on whether you are using an iPhone or iPad. There are a lot of things you can do (in fact you can build an HTML5 app within an ePub if you want) but whether an ePub format is appropriate for all the things you can do is another matter. That is a discussion for another day ...

  • I need a phone number to speak with a human being.

    Does anyone know how I can find a phone number to speak with a real live human being about a software purchase which I've paid for but can't download because they say I haven't provided proof that I'm a teacher (which I have already uploaded twice). I'm so frustrated!!! Trying to be nice and reasonable is getting harder and harder.

    Uploading photos and videos taken on your iPhone to your computer should be quite straightforward. You simply attach your iPhone to the computer with the USB cable that came with your iPhone. The computer should recognize your iPhone as a camera and start its photo handling software.
    There are instructions on exactly how to do this for the PC and Mac here:

  • HT204088 how on earth can I speak to a human being?

    I want to speak with a rep about my billing history.  Now, not tomorrow, or next week.  I've already wasted 45 minutes of my life getting to this stage.  Email me a direct customer service phone number, thank you.
    It shouldn't be this complicated!
    I am frustrated enough to give up being an apple customer.  This is mind numbing!!!!!
    <Personal Information Edited by Host>

    Most of the people on these public forums, including myself, are fellow users - you're not talking to iTunes Support here. I've asked the hosts to remove your phone number from your post.
    You can contact iTunes Support via this link : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption, and chose one of the contact methods that show on that screen.

  • How do I speak with a human being at Adobe?

    I have been trying to get help with a problem.  I cannot get Photoshop 12 to work on my Windows 7 computer.  I have spent many hours going around in circles and keep winding up in places like this, which I tried yesterday with no luck.  I believe that there must be a simple solution, but I cannot get to anyone who can help me.  There are no telephone numbers or email addresses that I can find in the Contact Us section.  This should not be so difficult.

    I don't know what you tried yesterday but it doesn't appear to have been asking for help since this appears to be your very first posting here.  The same goes for the first responder to your post who appears to have only ever posted the one reply you received.  If you (both) have a problem that you need help with you need to provide the details of the problem so that either a solution can be provided or you can be directed to a better resource for help.
    It's unfortunate that the first responder didn't provide a phone number since there are mentions of phone calls being made, which is one way to talk to someone at Adobe - though it is not likely someone physically at the Adobe headquarters.  I don't know any phone numbers to hand out myself.
    Another option is to chat with someone.  There are different channels available for chat depending on what your problem is.  If one of the following looks like a match for your issue then give it a try.  If none do, then try describing your issue(s) and maybe someone can help.

  • I want to speak to a human!!! multiple problems

    Mutiple problems - Mozilla cannot connect - Skype is being sabotaged - I am comming to the conclusion that Comcast is in league with Microsoft to make it impossible to download anything not in the MS pocket.
    At my office no problem with Mozilla - solves a lot of connection problems - at my home HP - disaster

    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
    Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
    Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

  • Can somebody help me to organise my Bookmarks.....books, instructions pages have all failed....desperately want to talk to a 'human being'!!!!

    I simply wish to put my bookmarks into folders but for example the Dummies book of Firefox says click on Manage Bookmarks but I don't have that on my screen.
    I have a very long list of bookmarks that I simply want to sort into order so I can access more easily!!!!!
    PLEASE!!!!!!!

    Sorry, Mozilla doesn't have telephone support.
    Manage Bookmarks was renamed to Show All Bookmarks back in the Firefox 4.0 version.

  • May i speak with a human being urgently

    I now have three accounts with skype, two set up in an attempt to close the first. this is absolutely ridiculous.
    there is no useful link to be reached on any of your pages, so i spent my day browsing, only to find out that a skype account cannot be closed! this is just so, so wrong, i never heard of anything like that from any other website. probably people don't protest because it just takes too long even to find the page where to protest!
    i now understand that my login names will remain but i can delete personal information from profile and hide my screen name. still not sure how to do this in android, but in order to do it i'd have to have my passwords back, and there is no one there to help me get back my passwords!
    i use skype sparingly so, one, i forget passwords and, two, i close email accounts. Both these things have happened now, so i tried to guess what my last email address was, and your website tells me that if i did not purchase any credit recently, then even this cannot be traced!
    how dare you. how dare you have such fraudulent settings. i don't buy credit because the last time i put credit into my phone and used skype there were no less than 5 pound sterling flying out the window over night and i have no idea where they went and why!
    and now, ask me why i want to close my skype accounts...
    your defaults are set to Public, so anyone registering in their real name have their name instantly advertied in the "public domain" from where a pornographic website somehow manages to pick up my name and automatically generate a page with embarassing adverts on. this comes up in google searches set to Moderate content so anyone can google my name and see this. as it happens, i am an art historian and this is deeply insulting.
    it appears only the seventh down on the list, as my name is rather unique! not many people may have noticed, assuming that it's all about somebody else with the same name.
    it's not my job to sort this out with google, on the ridiculous screen of a mobile and with no desktop computer at home. all i need is to close any account, which has thrown my name on the public domain, and this page disappears in only three days from all the searches.
    can a support administrator contact me urgently. mon.om

     Dear mon_om,
    Skype Premium subscribers are eligible for live chat customer support; a "Day Pass" may also be purchased.  Here is a link to start with: Skype Premium
     The above is outdated information and is no longer relevant as of December 2014.
    Regarding your observation that Skype privacy settings default to "public": this is not limited to Skype.  I find most, if not all, website account default settings are set to public, receive e-mail from all 3rd party advertising or marketing "partners," etc.  I am constantly monitoring my accounts to ensure they remain "locked down" and private.  I am not defending these policies; I agree with you.
    Please understand that it is not Skype's fault that when you added credit to your account, using a wireless hand-held device or smart phone, some malcontent may have happened to be within short distance of your device and either watched you input the details or used a listening device to steal your log-in details.  IMHO, I would never, ever trust a wireless device as secure or encrypted regarding financial transactions.  Period.  I would strongly recommend you use a computer on a secured network to purchase anything.
    In the case of a forgotten password, or other matters requiring contact with Skype Customer Service, Skype defined certain parameters to verify an accountholder's identity and to prove ownership of an account.  More details here: https://support.skype.com/en-us/faq/FA109/I-ve-for​gotten-my-password
    With all due respect, maintaining our privacy and the integrity of all of our accounts and records as well as our on-line "presence" has become a part-time job for all of us.
    Sincerely,
    [Removed for privacy]

  • Is there any way to speak to a human being at Firefox concerning an unresolved loading issue?

    I need to S P E A K to a technical person to resolve an issue that has been preventing updating downloads. Your suggestions have all been faithfully followed and have done N O T H I N G to resolve the problem

    Presumably, you're trying to update to v4.0.1. It has proved to be problematical for some people.
    If that is indeed the case, please follow these steps.<br><br>
    #Go to [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/fx/?ref=logo Download Firefox 4.0.1] and download the installation file to your desktop.<br><br>
    #Then go to Add/Remove Programs, scroll down to "Mozilla Firefox" and remove it, choosing to keep your bookmarks, customizations etc., (''don't checkmark the box'').<br><br>
    #Then reboot and delete the folder called "Mozilla Firefox" at this location: C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox<br><br>
    #Finally run the installation file you downloaded to the desktop earlier.<br>
    Your bookmarks, customizations etc., are maintained in a different location and will become available to you again once you complete the installation.<br><br>
    After you complete the installation, please go to the [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/ Plugins Check] page and update where necessary.

  • How can I speak to a live human being about firefox?

    I have updated to the new version 27 and do not like it. How can i change it. I don't get along with computer help program as the are no help to my limited computer skill. I would really like to speak to a real human being not as automated phone system or e-mail back and forth q & a. I have liked using firefox in the past but not this version with yahoo as the page.
    Please help me. Thanks Cordell Louivere

    Hello,
    The problem is your home page?
    Try change it:
    *[https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/How%20to%20set%20the%20home%20page How to set the home page]
    Other way:
    Go to '''about:config''', search for '''browser.startup.homepage''' change its value to:
    '''about:home''' deafault
    '''about:blank''' blank page
    '''URL''' one page that you want
    If you want to downgrade, i need to remember you that isnt recommended use a previous or a old version because it has some issues
    One alternative, try use a portable version:
    *http://sourceforge.net/projects/portableapps/files/Mozilla%20Firefox%2C%20Portable%20Ed./Mozilla%20Firefox%2C%20Portable%20Edition%2026.0/
    If you really want do downgrade:
    *[https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/install-older-version-of-firefox Install an older version of Firefox]

  • How do you get a human being from Apple for customer service? This is the worst customer support ever seen!

    How do you get an actual human being to speak with at apple to help with customer service?

    The Apple Support COMMUNITIES is a user-operated apple-run page where users of the COMMUNITY help other people the best they can. Apple employees do not have anything to do with this page apart from own the servers and design it. If you want to speak to Apple then go to their Customer Support here: http://www.apple.com/uk/support/contact/
    Remember, this isn't a customer support page, it's a community forum based on using Apple products. If you wish to refer to Apple employees then this is the wrong website.
    Hope this helps.
