Waiting for a human on the phone and hear “this call will be recorded for quality and training purposes” - do you consent? Either you stay on the line and “consent”, or you can’t speak with a representative.

I don’t know if I was lucky of if it’s a German/European law thingy but all service desks I had the “pleasure” to call had the option to refuse a recording.
