Regularly, our phone rings, with "unavailable" shown on the caller display & occasionally I pick up the phone, to listen to the recorded message..."According to our records, you have not yet taken advantage of your free loft insulation grant......please press button 2".
Usually, I put the phone down without doing anything, but I was sick of this and decided to answer this time, so I pressed button 2.
I spoke to a pleasant lady who launched into her scripted message & I stopped her. "Who are you?" I asked "and why are you calling me?" She started to explain that they wanted to know if we had taken up the offer of free loft insulation, so I stopped her again. "Do you know who I am?" I asked......."No" she replied. "Well you should" I said, "because according to your records you know that we haven't go loft insulation, so you should know who we are and where we live. What other information do you hold on us? She then hung up without further comment. What fun.
We did have our loft insulation installed 2 years ago.
What do some fellow cruisers do with these pests?
