New figures obtained by the Liberal Democrats show that since the beginning of 2003, over 119 million calls to Government helplines and call centres - or 36.6% of all calls - have been abandoned, were met with an engaged tone or went unrecorded by the system.
The real number of calls unanswered since 2003 is likely to be even larger - with many departments unable to provide complete records for the period, discounting calls abandoned before a set period of time, or not recording callers who receive a message advising them to call back later.
Over one in three people calling Government helplines are receiving engaged tones or abandoning calls when they should be able to speak to an adviser.

 Awful tone when calling engaged phone - MoDaCo   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
Before I get the engaged tone I hear a particularly harsh tone which almost made me pass out the first time I heard it seeing as the phone was against my ear at the time.
I only seem to get the tone whenever I call someone who is using their phone (normally land lines as most mobiles seem to transfer to voice mail).
You may well be lucky you don't get the engaged tone then :wink: From my experience it isn't all it's cracked up to be and is a rather painful experience.
