Scottish ABCD request?
ABCD Scottish pass your message
ABCD request left 10 due weather.

This one annoys me. Although I will request first if it's something longer or more unusual to make sure the controller has time to listen properly, otherwise they just have to get me to repeat anyway and it wastes time.

I do however have to admit to occasional use of confirm.

I just feel that whenever I have heard a frequency for example 95% well and maybe just not 100% sure if that one digit was a 2 or a 3, I think it's so much quicker for it to be like:

ABCD contact london 121.025
london 121.025 confirm acbd?
affirm bye

rather than

ABCD contact london 121.025
say again ABCD
ABCD contact london 121.025
london 121.025 ABCD
