BUT... for some things like the transit comendations/complaint line.. thats a good thing. Used to be if you actually talked to someone directly when you called that line you ended up getting a call back a day later or so.

And you used to be only able to call them 830 to 430... which sucked some serious ass when the problem happens on the way home from work and you think it should be fixed.

This 311 service sucks! I thought it was supposed to be a new service that people can call. It looks like all city numbers are now being directed to this #.

I called in my water reading this morning. ( 986-5858 - winnipeg water & sewer) - got directed to 311, where I sat on hold fro 20 minutes for the person to transfer me to the 986-5858 # where I sat on hold for another 5 min.

Fix it or forget it, but if you have to go through 311 everytime you call a city number that you know you want to call, so that they can transfer you to the number you wanted to call in the first place......

Well, 311 will direct your call to the chicken department, which will redirect your call to the egg department, which will redirect your call to the chicken department, and so on...

The chicken department is closed. When the chicken tried to cross the road it got caught up in traffic. The lights were fckd.

Try 411...they should give you 311...who may tell you that since it's an emergency to call 911...who will tell you it's a phone issue and to call 611 (MTS).
