PLA011 Phone Call Transcripts

Phone Call Transcripts

Written by RedBoxChiliPepper on December 15, 1994

Here's a bunch of phone call transcripts that I typed up simply because I have no life to speak of. Most of them are actual calls, typed straight from a cassette tape but a few are just made up, something I did to kill time on a rainy day. The made up ones are pretty obviously made up, as they include operator suicides and police raids on phone booths.

By the way I have tons of cassette tapes FULL of most of this crap and more. If you'd like to order the actual tape or want to submit some of your own calls, go to our prank call page.

MasterRoy:

AT&T: "This is the AT&T operator, may I help you?"
RBCP: "Yeah, I want to use my credit card to bill this call."
AT&T: "Please hold while I get an operator who can validate your card."
RBCP: ".........Hello?............Hellooooooooooo??....Hey, operator, what, you get drunk and fall off of your chair or what?"
AT&T: (Irritated) "If you'll wait just a minute, sir, I'm getting someone here who can validate your card."
RBCP: "Well, geez, it's taking you long enough. Don't you know you're not supposed to drink on the job?"
AT&T: (New operator) "This is AT&T, what kind of card will you be using?"
RBCP: "It's a MasterRoy."
AT&T: "Excuse me?"
RBCP: "MasterRoy. You know, Master the possibilities? The universal credit card? No other card more accepted on the planet?"
AT&T: "You mean Mastercard."
RBCP: "Well, it's from the bank in Roy, New Mexico and they call it a MasterRoy. They're pretty silly people, aren't they?"
AT&T: "Could I have the expiration date, please?"
RBCP: "Yes, it's 13/97."
AT&T: "What's that?"
RBCP: "The expiration date is 13/97."
AT&T: "That can't be right, sir."
RBCP: "Well, the kid who put my card together at the Roy Bank was new and I think he made a misprint on my card. It's probably supposed to say 12/97."
AT&T: (I hear her hitting the buttons harder, as if in frustration.) "Thank you for using AT&T. Your call is completing."

Operator 4592:

AT&T: "AT&T, Operator 4592. How were you wanting to bill your call, sir?"
RBCP: "I want to charge it to my home phone. My number is 618-258-1160 and my name is Darin McCall."
AT&T: "Just a minute......Sir, the man on the other line says that HE is Darin McCall."
RBCP: "Hmmm...Maybe that's because I just picked his name at random out of the phone book and I'm trying to call my friend in Austraila and bill it to him."
AT&T: "You can't do that. Obviously, it doesn't work."
RBCP: "Yes it does work, actually. About every third try it seems to work. You see, usually the wife will answer and she'll think it's her husband trying to make a legitimate phone call."
AT&T: "You'll be caught, though, sooner or later."
RBCP: "And if the third number billing doesn't work, I'll simply use one of the stolen calling cards I've obtained or perhaps a business's PBX number."
AT&T: "I hope you get caught."
RBCP: "I won't. I wrote down your operator number you gave me and I know how to get your name from that. If you don't start being nice to me, I'll charge some calls to your house. You can't stop me, you know."
AT&T: "Fuck you, you little bastard."

Then she hung up. I swear, some operators just have absolutely no sense of humor at all. I was just trying to make her job a little more exciting. I did feel sort of bad when I saw the news that night and found out that she had tried to hang herself shortly afterwards with her operator headset.

A Little Fun Backfires:

AT&T: "AT&T, Please deposit 80 cents for the past three minutes."
RBCP: (I take a handfull of coins and jingle them next to the mouthpiece.) "You hear that? I've got all this money and I'm not giving you one damn cent! Hahaha!"
AT&T: "Oh, well THAT'S fine with me, I'll just bill it to the number you called then."
RBCP: "Hey, go ahead, buster. I was harassing those people anyways. I'll be even better if they get a bill for it.........Well...hmmm, I guess maybe I can give you a little money. Here's fifty cents..." (beepbeepbeepbeep)
AT&T: "Sir, it has to be real coins, not a recording. Do you want me to turn you in to security right now?"
RBCP: "That's not a recording, it's a red box! They're electronicly produced coins. Learn to tell the difference, you shmuck."
AT&T: "Okay, let me turn you in to security right now....."
SUPR: "This is the supervisor. Can I help you?"
RBCP: "Gee, that's funny. He told me that he was getting security but all I get is a lousey low-life supervisor. What do you want?"
AT&T: "Sir, 80 cents."
RBCP: "Okay, here...." beepbeepbeepbeepbeep....beepbeepbeepbeepbeep...(I box in the eighty cents he wants.) "Oh, and here's an extra quarter just because I like you." beepbeepbeepbeepbeep!
SUPR: "Those aren't real coins, sir. Do you want me to send the police over there right now?"
RBCP: "Yeah, sure, send the police over here. If I had a nickle for every time an operator threatened to send the police to me..."

Suddenly, I look up and there's a helicopter overhead with his light shinning down on me. I turn to run toward's the shopping center but there's a few dozen men in army fatiges with machine guns running down the side of the hill. So I turn the other way and three local police cars are sliding to a stop, surrounding the pay phone. Two FCC vans pull up and about sixteen Illinois Bell trucks follow close behind and I think, "Man, I'm surrounded. I am fucked!"

I had to destroy the evidence, so I took my modified Radio Shack tone dialer/ red box and swallowed it. After hours of grilling by the police, they finally let me go because of lack of evidence. Later that week, every employee of Cincinatti Bell Telephone found that their home phone services no longer existed. It took them days to fix it all.

McDonalds

MCDS: Thank you for calling McDonald's, May I help you?
RBCP: McYes. I'd like to have a 69 piece McNuggets, a McCoke and two orders of McFrench fries delivered right Mcnow.
MCDS: We don't deliver, sir.
RBCP: McExcuse me? I'm looking at your McAd in the McPaper and it SAYS right here in black and mcWhite that you McDeliver.
MCDS: Well, that's some sort of printing mistake or something.
RBCP: This is McRediculous! Let me speak to your McManager!
MCDS: Okay, please hold.
RBCP: McHurry, you McLoser.
