I called one of those gentleman's 900 numbers and was enjoying a pleasant conversation until I said something to upset the beautiful lady on the other end of the phone. Anyway, she hung up on me but I had 1/2 hour coming to me & only received 12 minutes. Got the phone bill today and was charged for 30 minutes.
I called the number to complain but all that happened is I got another lady who thought I was seeking a "good time" conversation. I assume I'll be charged additionally for another 30 minutes now.
What should I do? How do I get in touch with the managers at this 900 number without going through the beautiful girls assuming I'm looking for a "good time" conversation?

You should get a girlfriend and watch those hourly charges disappear.
Have a nice day!

Read the small print if there is any. The lady may have had to hang up on you based on company policy. There are some things she cannot legally talk about. And she could lose her job over one caller.
In the future you may wish to call a by the minute kind of place rather then a by the half hour sort of place .
If you keep calling you will keep getting billed. It is very hard to get a charge back from such companies. So many people try it that the company is really geared against it. Is there an email address ?

The 900 "good time" numbers are predominantly called by old people who are home and are lonely and rarely is it erotic conversation. There was a gentleman in my college, who putted from the rough, who worked for one of these companies and impersonated a female voice when on the phone with his "clients". You can probably save yourself a whole lot of money by getting a girlfriend or cybering on the net with some perverted chicks (or pretend to be chicks).

Quit calling 900 numbers. How much money do you need to pay before you figure out that they are ONLY in it for the money?
How do you know these women are "beautiful" over the phone? For all you know, it's your grandma on the other end.
Recommendation: only talk to real women face-to-face. Having a pleasant voice in your ear is going nowhere.

Stop calling 900 numbers, go ahead and pay the charges, and consider it a lesson well taught not to call anymore.

Didn't you know that you are speaking to retired 80 year old women?

Let it go and don't call anymore. Get a real friend!
