[Corpora-List] Telephone Language

I'm looking for English corpora that include frequent formulaic sequences
used in telephone conversation between strangers, such as calling to make
appointments, ask for information,  etc., especially beginnings and endings.
Or if this doesn't exist, I'd be grateful for ideas on how to construct such
a corpus, given the privacy and permissions issues.  The information I want
is excluded from Switchboard, as those recordings didn't start until after
the initial exchanges had occurred.
