Nothing more!

Thanks for the opinion and normally it would not even matter but just for the record it is obviously not made up if you bother to read the news article. Recording has been streamed 4 million times already.

From the news article:

"AOL product manager, Ryan Block, who is heard on the recording, said his wife initially called the cable provider to cancel their service".

"According to Block, the representative “got straight up belligerent” and was “aggressively repeating his questions” instead of canceling their service — so much so that after 10 minutes his wife eventually handed the phone over to him and he started recording".
