In Spain ¿Dígame? is how you answer the telephone — the equivalent of hello? — and the shorter ¿Diga? does the same job. Behind a counter or at a reception desk it means how can I help you, and a shop assistant will say it to you within seconds of your walking in.
Grammatically it is the usted imperative of decir with the pronoun stuck on the end, which is where the accent comes from: díga plus me needs it to hold the stress in place. Among friends the form is dime. None of this travels — Latin America answers the phone with ¿Aló?, or ¿Bueno? in Mexico, and almost never with dígame.
