Good news ! I talked to my British coworker today. I thought he was scottish, but he's not. He did say all callcenters have been moved to India lately.

And the scottish wear 'frocks' ? I don't know what he meant by that... I know skirts but what does a frock translate to ?

Some of them are still in the UK, apparently, especially the ones servicing the rest of Europe--not many people in India speaking Dutch, I'm guessing.

Hey, you should hear some of our colleagues ;-)

The spoken language at work is English, but watch it if you take one of your Indian colleages for a night out and he has to order a drink. Shocked me right off my feet. Well, those who are here for the longer run at least seem to show the courtesy to learn the language.

But yes, I wouldn't buy that 'all' either. He did mention something about accents but was called away afterwards. I would have told him your story.

Fingers crossed.
