swiftcover.com responds to Alliance & Leicester research citing 8 out of 10 don't want their financial products serviced overseas.
Andrew Blowers, Chief Executive of swiftcover.com comments: 'It is no surprise to see the research from Alliance & Leicester shows that 8 out of 10 Brits don't want their financial products serviced overseas in a call centre.

?Almost two thirds (62%) are unable to understand what the call operators are saying
?More than half (54%) of consumers are confused by endless automated voice options.
?Nearly two thirds (57%) loathe using call centres to make an enquiry
