That's YouTube. The first minute also is. And a few more minutes in-between the start and end, depending on how badly a particular author content creator is trying to monetize his video.

... I have Herself trying to navigate an automated telephone system to confirm a Hospital appointment.
It's been going on for five or more minutes, and her discussions with a machine that isn't listening is getting more and more strident.
And graphic.
Oh, and obscene.
Now, I dislike them - particularly Vodafone's idea of "customer support" - but this is moving to a new level. I suspect the machine may give in out of embarrassment soon, either that or the phone will get a flying lesson.
Oh dear. I better intervene - the cat has just run away with his tail between his legs ... it's getting serious.

Has she got to the message that says, "You can also book your appointment through our online system at www.youllbelucky.com"?

Funny, I am in the middle of trying to pay my home improvement loan with a bank. Last month I paid it no problem. This month it seems I cannot pay it with my account at another bank where I do my primary banking. Unless I have an account with the bank I cannot pay the loan automatically. hmmmm, I am not happy. Now I am on hold waiting for a 'real' person. Who probably won't be able to understand my American Engrish very well.
The trouble with automation is that eventually they won't even need people. and I think that might be the goal.
To err is human to really mess up you need a computer
