I can't understand any of the dialogue between host and vendor and host to viewers.
Between regional accents, squeaky voices and speaking speed .... I haven't a clue to what most of them are saying.
I haven't heard any Host or Vendor with any such regional accents, squeaky voices or speaking speed. Can you name them?

No.... I can't name them. I don't know the names of most of the hosts.

I have no horse in this race as I don't watch QVC. Online here. But I think ALRATIBA might have meant many hosts speak too rapidly, or too fast.? That is one complaint I have heard a bazzilion times on these forums. Maybe squeaky ....she means the shrill voices posters have mentioned on these forums? Just reading between the lines. IDK about regional. My CC is small, I am close to TV, but have trouble reading it. But not to worry, I haven't turned TV on since last year. lol

I haven't had this problem watching the Q but I do at times when watching a movie. Often people will have a strong accent, speak softly and there is background music. It can be annoying when listening to accents that aren't native to me.

It depends on the speaker. Some are able to speak clearly in a nice tone while others slur words together, speak too rapidly, mumble, and two speaking together really difficult for the tv audience to distinguish words. I wonder why qvc hosts seem to be a side note to most every presentation...only two hundred left and this is burgundy mauve! If you have a host and a vendor you increase the cost of the item.
