Over the years, I've posted to Facebook about the random sales and questionnaire calls I've had, and how I get bored easily so fill them full of nonsense. Today I hit a new level......
I just fill them full of crap with my answers now hoping they'll get sick of me, but this guy is special.
By the way, I'm neither blind or in a secure hospital unit!
Caller: Do you own a car?
Me: No, I'm legally blind...
Caller: And would you like to save money on your car insurance?
Me: No, I can't see to drive!
Caller: Could I ask who provides your electricity and gas?
Me: I'm in a secure hospital unit so the NHS pays.
Caller: Are they part of British Gas?
Me: Are you serious?
Caller: Oh ok, Scottish Power.
Me: *laughing*
Caller: You sound very happy. Who provides your current mortgage?
Me: I'm in a secure hospital unit!
Caller: I'll just put the Halifax Building Society
Me: Really? Are you for real?
Caller: Going back to your car, are you interested in an extended warranty?
Me: I don't drive. I'm blind!
Caller: So someone else in your household is? That's great.
Me: Are you listening to anything I'm saying?
Caller: Of course, this is carried out on behalf of our clients! Have you ever had a loan or mortgage?
Me: No, I've never had either.
Caller: Ok, I'll arrange someone to call about you claiming back any costs or charges you may be entitled to via the PPI scheme.
Me: I've never had any charges, I've never had a loan or mortgage!
Caller: But they will check to make sure!
Me: I'm going to go now, I've got a driving lesson.
Caller: I thought you said you are blind?
Me: I am, but I have a modified disability vehicle.
Caller: Oh, that's great, have a nice day.
I'm lost for words...
I'm now going to post a copy of this to the Halifax and Scottish Energy!
