This site has come in handy more than once for me.

It's numbers to different companies and what to say/press to get you to a human the quickest way possible.

Dang! I must have done it wrong, RM. I was trying American Express, got confused and dialed the wrong number---I think it was a "900" number and I finally got connected to some really sweet gal who said---"What did you have in mind today, Big Boy?......" :D

I have actually used the one on closing the account...it was quicker. I actually thing Cingular has only 2 (complete idiots of course) working for them.

Heck I work for Cingular and always use the "close my account" (since it's one giant company account) to get through. Now however, you can type in your phone number then punch 0 on the next two menus and get straight through. The most difficult ones I have found are Nextel and Cellular One. They are voice activated and you have to speak jibberish 3 times in a row and then they will transfer you to somebody.
