Possibly. I know when I've had to call a few customer (dis)service numbers (Airlines, TWC tech support, AT&T tech support, etc.), I use speakerphone, and let it play muzak until either.

a) Call drops (at least 25% of the time)
b) I get through

Many service items needed can not be handled online.

Wow, just hang up the phone and try the call again.

Who would have the time to wait for 8 hours on hold?
