No, I know exactly what you mean. The last one I had was "Nigel". I did, however, have the need to speak to a technical guy at T-Mobile recently. His name was Gareth and, I was relieved to find, he was actually Welsh (I had feared the worst). What's more he sorted out my voicemail problem where all others had failed. A family member had to speak to someone about a computer problem and got a bloke in Bombay. After half an hour on the phone, neither of them was any the wiser. It's ridiculous.
