Be thankful you don't have to wait for all selections to come up in different languages and have to press 999!
But, you missed the main point. After you press one you get connected to someone who can't speak good Enlgish, like I did the other day and I couldn't get them to spell my name right, even after I went through the Edward Allen Richard Lincoln routine.

Why do we have to press 1 for anything?
What happened to real people on the end of a phone?

you only need to press one for English if you want to hear the announcement in English. Otherwise you should choose another language

If they are speaking english then it is assumed that you understand therefore you press. The people speaking in another language might not understand.....

Because we live in America...where people that speak English are becoming a minority. Didn't you know?
