I call people all over the world as part of my job (anti-fraud for on-line seller). Invariably, people from the UK are so polite! It's always "Cheers" when they hang up and usually a pleasant comment or two during the short conversation.
Even the cranky mums who answer the phone at 2am are not rude to me. Other than late night calls, most are very upbeat.
Not that people from other countries are rude but none are as unfailingly polite as UK citizens.
I love it but wonder .... Why?
