There is another advantage of shifting call centres to eastern Europe it keeps their nationals there rather than swamping the UK job market. I've spoken to HP and Microsoft reps in Czech and Lithuania who had perfect English accents. Let's hope this keeps more of them behind the former iron curtain

Good point Dedworth.
Lots of these places in Ireland too.
Maybe I'll apply for a job at one.
It will save me a few grand in ripoff visa fees etc...if I decide to bring my partner here.
