    My state is single consent and I was recording a call with att once and the rep straight up tried to gaslight me. When I told her that I was recording this, so I can play back exactly what she said, she told me that she’s in California and didn’t give consent. I laughed and told her that since I’m not sitting in California I don’t really care about their laws at the moment.

      Fun fact in all party consent states consent is obtained merely by notifying the other party that the call is being recorded.

      It’s a really weird definition of consent

        And almost all calls with a company will start with a line about ‘recording the call for quality purposes’. Well, both parties consented after that point, record away!

        If you don’t consent you can just hang up, but that basically means the deal is “give consent or you get no support”.
