OT: Chatbot or person?

Jul 17, 2025 Last reply: 1 year ago 1 Replies

I contacted my bank using Online Banking Chat, and after a chatbot had fielded my question, I was passed to a person, 'Sumitra'.



"Good Morning, {my surname}.



Sorry for the inn convince.



Please allow me sometime to pull out your details. Please stay connected."



'Sumitra' speaks more like a chatbot than the chatbot did!



Several times, I had to confirm that I wished to stay on the chat, as the bank wanted to disconnect me for lack of action.


The banks are being allowed to do just as they please and no one from any political party is doing the slightest thing to rein them in. They're getting *everything* the way they want it and the customer can go f*ck themselves.
