In a hurry and frustrated? The last thing you need is to have to talk to the stupid robotic voice prompts when you call a company. Although these menus are probably made to direct you into the proper queue by a semi-helpful and friendly voice, you’re already on your last nerve… It would be nice to know how to finagle your way through the menus to get to a real person as quickly as possible.

With a Dial Zero application installed on your phone, you can do just that!

Dial Zero comes on the iPhone, Android, and Blackberry. It’s database currently has over 600 entries to get to a live person including tips from other users for getting what they want out of the company.

If you’re on a desktop, you’re out of luck with Dial Zero for the time being (however, their website says they’re working on it). You can use a directory like GetHuman.
