Goes by your location. If the court case is in their state it's a bit more complicated so I'll leave that as IANAL. But it's definitely legal.

OK fine, not the biggest whopper. But I was just dumbfounded as she argued with me.

What whoppers have you been told?

She just got mixed up. I feel bad for her. I thought this will be a recording of one of those ignorant, arrogant reps....

It's illegal in the 11 states listed above, otherwise it's legal and admissible fwiu.
thought i Remember reading that there hasn't been too much precedent to know how courts will treat it

FYI that law about notifying is only applicable to phone conversations. When 2 people are in the room talking, both need to know you're recording. Over the phone at least 1 needs to know.

She made an honest mistake. I don't see the need to post this.

Now, if she was insistent even after you corrected her, that you can post.

Not on the phone, but in the airport trying to catch a flight to a funeral, an AA agent told me it is impossible to use American Airlines miles for a British Airways flight.

The title is misleading. He can post that on funny vidoes thread, but this thread is for when the rep is clearly wrong etc

It's a good thread to have, but she's not the whopper, as you posted in your OP.

Yup, was hoping to inspire others.
I do have whoppers, but that would require digging them up.

I'm sure you've heard a great number of awesome (and sometimes frustrating) whoppers over the course of your career...
