Course they do as we dont really make much here any more.
But we are all at some point doing business with banks/insurance/phone companies and if people could be bothered there is an opportunity to support ones that support our workforce, but as MK says the general apathy of the population will probably prevent if from happening.
However, if a national newspaper started a campaign to promote the use of companies that only use English call centres, and if everyone who cared about it sent a simple email to all of their contacts making them aware of situations like this, maybe public opinion might make a difference.
I know Sussex and suitcase and plenty of others wouldnt agree but is there actually anything wrong in supporting your Country ahead of others?
There's nothing wrong with supporting your country. If people are really serious about it, you can probably find most things are manufactured in this country but they would be very expensive. If you can't find something that isn't made here, you could always go without.
The banks are just making the same choice you are when you fail to buy british.
