1-800 Shortcuts - Get a Real Person Quick

[frugalityisgood]

I came across this site called http://1800shortcuts.net which I find to be a time saver. It gives the toll free number for a huge number of companies. Plus it gives the shortcut to get through the automated system and get a real person on the line.

Examples
Verizon Wireless for example is 800-922-0204
Press 0# three times, once during each prompt, then press 0, then press 0#

Wal‑Mart.com 800-966-6546
Press * immediately, then press * again, wait for transfer.
