This seems to be more of a phenomenon people bitch about on Facebook than something I encounter in real life. I hear the Spanish message, but can’t recall ever hearing to press 1 for English.

Chances are you live in an area without substantial hispanic population.

Real question is why do you press 1 for English and get someone who doesn't speak English.


People from India speak English

Spanish is not being retained at a high rate with each passing generation. It will always be around, but its not going to be as dominant as you may think...



There is a steep drop off for Spanish speakers under 17.

Pew Research says Latinos who speak Spanish are dropping gradually.

after Biden is inaugurated, you'll be forced to hear the initial message in Spanish.
