Ann Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 While waiting on the phone, how long can someone put you on hold before you just hang up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geri Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 It depends on the reason for the call, if it's not important not long at all. When I answer the phone I give them 2 hello's....... if no one speaks I hang up, it gets rid of any computer generated calls straight away.

dchurchi Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 like Geri it depends on how critical the call is. If I am calling a Government office I just plan for the wait to be very long Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kasey Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 I usually wait longer than I should.......then am MAD at myself that I did it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Wood Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 Normally, not very long. If it is information or service I need, I tend to be a bit more patient. Don Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ry Posted May 22, 2007 Share Posted May 22, 2007 It depends on if I have a speaker phone and something to do while I am waiting. The cable company and social security will put you on hold forever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
