Apple Support Calls Me Rebecca!?

I decided to call Apple Support about a question I had about the Apple Watch, just because I wanted to know more about how it actually works with the iPhone (I might concider buying it). This is what happened.

Getting through to the customer support service was easy. I didn't have to do anything fancy, I just started Hangouts and called the USA phone number because that one is free and for some reason the Belgian 0800 number (which should, by law, be free too) complained about me not having enough money on my Hangouts to make the call.

Suddenly I hear a male voice say "Hi Rebecca, are you calling about your recent repair?". I freaked out because I thought I had done something wrong and called from someone else's number, so I was seriously speachless. The guy proceeded and told me to press 1 if it was about the repair and 2 if it wasn't. I honestly should've pressed 1 in order to see if they'd kick me off the call or not but I didn't want to do any harm to this "Rebecca" so I pressed 2 and he asked me what it was about. I was confused, so I really didn't know what to answer. I ended up asking the question but didn't get any reply so I hung up.

I think this is very weird and I decided to make a post about it just to see if anyone else has been experiencing this and if I did anything wrong by trying to make a call to the USA number while I live in Belgium.

If you know any more about this issue, please tell me by leaving a comment on this post.

My Opinion on the Apple Watch

This is not going to be an experience-based review, this is just me giving my opinion on the Apple Watch as the internet presents it. I get the information used to form my own opinion from the official Apple Watch page and various other blogs that have made reviews about it.

Apple went with a simple, modern and generally beautiful design. If what they claim on their website is true, this watch would be a very good buy. The only big flaw that I found out about on other blogs and that Apple didn't even mention on their website is that you need an iPhone in order to be able to use it. I guess my Motorola Moto E 4G (2015) simply won't do the trick when it comes down to using the Apple Watch.

They're apparently using the digital crown on the side of the watch as a main user input, but it also has a touchscreen on it so that you can also use it as if it's just a smartphone wrapped around your wrist. I really like this idea, even though I'm not really sure if it'll work that well.

Another thing we're not used to seeing from Apple but we will be seeing on the Apple Watch is a large amount of personalisation options. I really like that you're able to choose the looks on just about every single aspect of your watch so that your device is truly unique.

That's it for this quick opinionated review, I don't have the watch myself so I can't really do a more in-depth review while still being sure the information I provide is correct and reliable.
