It doesn’t work on all systems, but you can try spamming the zero button. My bank has the most annoying robot assistant I’ve ever had to deal with, but I’ve learned if I hit the zero button everytime it asks me something after about 4-5 times it gives up and just transfers me to a person… I have had this work for other companies, but it’s hit or miss.

It’s so stupid too. All they offer to help with can be easily looked up online. I never waste my time calling some dreaded hotline unless it’s a special case.
