Thankfully, it’s just the mobile providers and central directories of big companies (like railway operators, hospitals) here, very few others get the number of bot-serviceable phone calls to justify that. And they only recently started to ditch keypad-navigable systems and require you to speak, probably due to the state of Czech TTS (our language is phonetic so it’s technically easier than English but with just 10M speakers, only recently did Big Tech really invest in Czech TTS, driving up the reliability/price ratio).
But American businesses at least take care that their website is up-to-date and not a 502: Bad Gateway page, right? So you barely need to make calls, right?
