    Gotta love calling PTV, or the department of transport as they now call themselves.

    Call

    Go through the menus choosing the right option

    “Sorry that’s not actually my department, let me transfer you click

    Hold music that’s meant to be relaxing but is actually really terrifying

    Old dude who’s definitely smoked a few too many ciggies answers and gives you oddly specific information with information you never provided (thanks Myki history)

    Old dude spends half the call coughing

    At the end of the call cue smoker voice “yeah thanks for calling. There’s a survey now”

    Click

    “HOW LIKELY WOULD YOU BE TO RECOMMEND PUBLIC TRANSPORT VICTORIA TO A FRIEND OR COLLEAGUE???”

    “Thanks for calling click

    This is why I email

      Recently had to call PTV as well and it was pretty much exactly the same as your experience minus the coughing. But plus a narration of every single step that was taking place (not that bad rly).
