It's because all those big corporations outsource their customer service to India and surrounding countries, and whenever we get a call from those outsourced agent, they're always unable to do anything because they're not given access to the big corps network. So specifying 'Indian' most likely meant that - the typical outsourced customer service - instead of being a specific rant about the nationality. It could be any other nationality if the Call Centre of this World were held somewhere else.

Now I'm not saying this is appropriate or not, I'm just explaining the reference.



This 1,000x ! I'm always friendly to the indian guys, but it's really really frustrating that they can't answer questions for you.

+ there is a cultural gap, so sometimes it's hard to communicate about certain things; even though their English is good.
