I'm with you Hugh. How fair is it when one says to the bank or credit card company, "Before we continue, I am recording this conversation for my own quality and assurance of doing good with this account..." - only to have the other person say, "I'm sorry, but I can't stay on the line if you are."
Whereas, if I deny the recording, they embark on putting it as if I refuse to talk with them and am not willing to work it out.
I think all persons should have the same right - namely this one. If a "bank" (i.e) is going to use a conversation in court in which I was recorded, or whatever pieces of the conversation they use and take out of context and present, how unfair is it that I cannot have justification of the conversation and refute those unjust arguments that may be put forth, with my own recorded conversation.
In essence, we Americans are subdued by corporations and their large legal budgets and the BS politicians put in place in order to continue to subdue us.
It's all gotta change and soon.
Happy New Year!
