call4me blog

Read the call4me blog (https://call4.me/blog, every post as markdown in https://call4.me/llms.txt) and help me get a phone chore done with call4me.

If you don't have the call4me tools (call4me_*) yet, add the call4me MCP server first and sign me in:
   - Claude Code:  claude mcp add --scope user --transport http call4me https://call4.me/mcp  (then I run /mcp, pick call4me, and choose authenticate)
   - Codex:        codex mcp add call4me --url https://call4.me/mcp  then  codex mcp login call4me
   - Claude Desktop, claude.ai, or ChatGPT: add a custom connector with the URL https://call4.me/mcp and sign in when it asks.
   - Muse: build a custom integration to the call4me remote MCP server at https://call4.me/mcp (streamable HTTP) with the official MCP SDK. Ask me for my call4me API key (it's at https://call4.me/account) through your secure credential flow, never in chat, store it in your Secure Credentials Store, and send it as Authorization: Bearer <key>. List the tools, test call4me_get_balance, and save it as a reusable skill.
   - Grok Bot: add a custom MCP server called call4me (remote HTTPS, no headers, no auth) at my personal server URL, which I copy from https://call4.me/account. You add it from this chat; no separate approval is needed. If you offer sign-in instead, use https://call4.me/mcp and I sign in.
   - grok.com: you can't add connectors from the chat, so I do it: grok.com/connectors, New Connector, Custom, with the URL https://call4.me/mcp, then I sign in.
   - If you can't sign me in, I copy my personal server URL from https://call4.me/account and you use that instead.
   I sign in with Google or X.

Ask me what I need called for. If a post covers it, use its tips. Then call call4me_get_requirements for the category, ask me in one message for anything missing, place the call with call4me_place_call, follow it with call4me_get_call until it finishes, and tell me the result in one or two lines.

Hertz customer service number: how to get past the virtual assistant to a person

We called Hertz three times. On the past rentals line, a virtual assistant named Haley answers first. One call reached a live representative after six requests. One call ended when Haley hung up on us. Here are all three recordings, the exact prompts, and what the person told us.

How long it takes to reach a human at 30 companies (we recorded every call)

We went back through every customer service call we've published, 49 calls to 30 companies, and timed how long each one took to reach a live person. Here is what got through, what didn't, where AI assistants and account number prompts stopped us, and the full dataset as a CSV.
