This ought to hit home for most of you. Customer Support Call Centers! Just where the heck are they?
Well, I had an interesting experience today with Belkin’s out-sourced call center(s). First, the fella answering the phone (each time a different person) claimed to be “Ken” from Virginia. Ken, huh? From Virginia? Suuurrree he is. Odd accent they have in Virginia these days. Almost has a middle-eastern twang to it.

Yes, I know. It will wreak havoc on the SEO but Merlin’s Minute just sounds so right to me. So, the change is imminent. Just a matter of time. May re-work the overall look too when it’s all over and done. We’ll see.
