Bernboy, I've never heard from any of the spanish speaking countries the word 'dime' being offensive. Do you know Lengua Espanola? otherwise, you could've placed an argment regarding the use of the word 'dime' I have many Ecuadorian friends and that statement is unheard of.

I'm sure it wasn't considered offensive, probably just impolite in certain situations like addressing a stranger or an older person when dígame would be more appropriate.
