hold music update

We should look into changing the hold music, or being able to choose a different tune, I know it's classic and has been used for a long time, but some peaceful classical music or something a little more toned down might be more soothing while awaiting a representative to answer, especially with longer hold times during tax season.

I don't know what they are playing but if you are looking for something more appropriate, would ACDC's "Highway to Hell" be more fitting?

The First Cut is the Deepest.

Look, Here Comes the Sun.

I can think of more.

I have been complaining about their on-hold music for a few years now.  I mean come on, change it up for cripes sake.  Sometimes, I hate to even call because I know I have to listen to that offensive tune over and over and over and over and over again.

Now I feel compelled to call and to be put on hold to see what song everyone is talking about.

It could be worse ...

On Monday I was CRAZY tired because I had a really bad night's sleep.  But even worse than being tired is that I had a song/music going incessantly going through my mind for HOURS - It was the music to the "Chicken Dance".  😱

I agree, peaceful classical music is most appropriate.

How about going with classical music played on an accordion?   Classical music ------------ polka style🕺

@IRonMaN yeah but will we get the correct answer if they roll out the barrel?
