On Tuesday afternoon my landline phone rang. I rarely use it nowadays and have actually thought about getting rid off the whole thing.
Anyway, the conversation went something like:
- Is it Mr $quandaŁot, asked a lady with American/Canadian accent?
- Yes, speaking.
- Do you have a central heating?
- Yes, I do, why?
- It's about energy...
- Well, I'm very happy with my current supplier and not going to change...
- I'm not asking you to...
- To carry on, I need to ask some security questions.
- Well, uhm, ok.
- What is your full name?
- My name is Jane Smith
- What is the full name of the company you are representing?
- Consumer...
- What is your mother's maiden name?
- Oh, uhm, hmh
- I asked you what your mother's maiden name was. To carry on this conversation I need to go through the security. Ok, what's your religion?
- What?
- Now, do you actually like girls or boys?
- I don't have time for this. Thank you any way.
So the lady hang up.
I bet this will work with everyone, including debt collectors if they are silly enough to ring me!,
