Please...I beg...to the customers that do not speak the best English...Please try to learn it better...English is all I know...I was raised in a family that only speaks english...I do not know any other language...

I think it is great that so many people want to come to America...but the only thing is that the main language is English...

Work with me please...I don't know what to do with people that ask me questions like:

"My cell phone door you call what?"

I do not understand it...

Or at least get someone who can translate for you to call in.

I get alot of teenagers calling in for their parents and act as translators. I think thats great πŸ™‚

Don't you have interpreter service? We have a service that provides whatever language we need, we conference in the interpreter with the customer, and we're on our way. So far I have yet to find a language they don't have an interpreter for, except for one obscure Hmong dialect, but they ended up both speaking a different dialect that worked well enough... it's a trip hearing all those different languages spoken, especially the English words that don't translate... 😎

How much do you think an American $20 is worth in India?

$20 dollars in the US is about equal to about 1000 to 1080 rupees....which depending on what u but is alottttttt.......u could order at least a 5 course meal from a expensive restaurant or bottled water for instace you would be able to buy anywhere between 66 -72 one liters of bottled water 😁

I think I almost died laughing when I was talking to someone that was trying to say..."I am trying to send a phone back to you all"


they ended up saying...
"I am trying to get a phone sent back to chayels (you-alls)"...

I could of swore he said he was trying to get a phone sent back to a person named Charles..


Also, I had someone ask me if there phone was "livered"...instead of delivered
