Re: 106,000??
There used to be about 30 people on the phones to answer calls to the Big Ban's office.
But some in London must be like me - constantly shoved from one building to the next as inter departmental wars were fought for budgets and control of tech.
I ended up being told I was now a Broadband Helldesk bod --which, at the time meant fielding calls from irate customers of OTHER providers who had found a 'modem' in a box of cornflakes (standard issue, cheap and shite while the Tadpole just worked).
The job was dealing with other companies not even looking at work and marking them 'BT Fault' then dumping them in in our work queues.
Oh Talk_talk you may have changed your name but NEVER your practices and as for Virigin --- standard Branson promises of Unicorn poo that was never delivered.
At least I had several years of working in some of the best touristy bits of London.
