Will You Please?

Hi,

Is it courteous to start a request with "Will you please?"
To me, this assumes that the person isn't willing to oblige to begin with.

What are your thoughts on this?

I would tend to agree with you if that is the very beginning of a situation. However, once some facts have been established, I'm sure it would be appropriate.

Thanks for the reply and clarification Philip. Yes, it was asked at the very beginning of a situation.
