It is odd that we are asked to "Buy American" and when we do, they provide difficult to understand accent customer service from abroad, particularly from India and African regions not because they are tech savvy, it's because labor is cheap!
When we have a problem or product issue and call your customer service line for help and guidance, we can't understand a word of what' most of your customer service agents try to say due to extremely and I mean extremely thick, distinct Indian accent which majority of your employees possess!
What's the matter Microsoft?
Don't you make enough money off of America and Canada Customers alone, in order to provide us with decent customer service that we could at least understand?! By that I mean a toll free number specifically designed for USA and Canadian customers or at least hire more people with light or a fair amount of accents to perform a phone job?! Don't get me wrong, I too have an accent this is not against accents it's against hard to understand accents performing the wrong jobs trying to guide people or the difficult accent to understand.
For God's sake every phone job that I have had before they Interviewed the prospect to ensure they have a good, strong phone voice, are with reasonable accent that everyone could understand!
An accent when subtle or understandable is beautiful but when you can't understand a word they say it becomes very frustrating.

When there is a problem and we get frustrated with your product or service, we don't need to call your customer service line Waits Too Long for someone to pick up and then get more frustrated while struggling to understand what advise the customer service is trying to give us!
I often get MORE Frustrated, hang up and redial/ wait a long time just hoping for someone with less accent would pick up so at least I can understand and BOOM! Another one, equally as annoying as the previous one picks up! If you want to give us good service start screening your phone
Operators in customer service area for a good phone quality voice, making sure they're understandable. That's all!
I bet you would not hire sales people with the thickest, hard to understand accents for the purpose of marketing your products! Won't you show the same courtesy to the people who have already spent hundreds or thousands on your products and need help and shouldn't get frustrated for calling your customer service line.
Hope someone from Microsoft was a decision maker would actually read this comment and take it seriously.
