Companies that don't have a phone number where you can talk to some one Hmmmmmm

The problem is that phone numbers are now about as much use as a chocolate teapot with all the call centres and musical keyboard aps that you have to go through to get anywhere, it is rare to have real people anywhere near them now.

If you are going to embrace new technology such as 3d printing then you should also embrace more efficient communication systems as well. Email is far superior and essential than any phone nowadays.

Sorry don't agree with that.
Strange large companies in the CNC, Laser cutting and large format printing world still have a salesperson on the phone and for tech support.
