We have plenty of classical music that would be available freely,
that we could use instead of an irritating jingle.

Obviously, every phone system needs "on hold" music.
There's nothing
obvious about that unless your intention is to annoy
people. A lot of this elevator music makes me want to hang up. The
upbeat stuff is the worst. If people must endure this kind of
torture
make it low volume Gregorian Chant or meditation music.
If I want music I'm quite capable of turning on the radio or
starting a CD.
