There is the issue of imposing a Service Charge on callers. Additional charges are the norm when booking tickets anyway.

However, in this case the service provider imposes a Service Charge on callers who are greeted with a message saying no one is available which is particularly disgusting:

The answer machine had a message stating that the operators were busy, to try to call again later and that the call would shortly be disconnected.
