If your like me and fed up of telesales and recorded messages ringing you. Then you can understand how frustrating it is when your waiting for an actual phone call form someone you really know.
Today is one of those days that they just wish they never called.
Heres how it goes.
I was sat here minding my own business waiting for the phone to ring. Alas it rang. ‘Yayyy’ i thought. But no. It was an auto recorded message. We get lots of these messages but i actually listened to this one as it pissed me off.
It was something to do with mortgage arrears and mortgage troubles. After the automatic voice stopped jabbering on. It informed me if pressed 2 on my phonepad i would be able to get help with my troubles! “Wow i thought. An end to my troubles?“ So i promptly pressed 2.
I was greeted by a guys voice who asked if i wanted help with my mortgage troubles. I replied “Hello, i got an automatic message saying you could help me with my troubles. I am interested.” The guy must of been drooling when i said i wanted his help because he wasted no time in repeating his first question. “So do you have troubles with your mortgage Sir?” the voice repeated. “No mate, i have troubles with automatic messages wasting my time all day long and i want to be removed from your database.”
He stopped being of use then and hung up.
Unfortunately for me i didn’t get the companies name (The guy just didn’t want to tell me it!)
Now i dunno where these companies are getting our number from. But we get at least 3 calls a day from such companies. Do we have mortgage troubles? No we live in a rented flat. Are we the home owners? No.
So why do they keep on calling? And why wouldn’t the last guy remove me from his database?
Bad business practises, all i want is for my name and number to be removed from a spam list.
