Phone challenge......
« on: April 21, 2006, 05:59:16 pm »

My phone rings and foreign person is on other end .The conversation goes:


Caller :Hello this is Shareen calling you from London about T mobile.


Me : Again?


Caller :Hello this is Shareen calling you from London about T mobile.


Me : Again?


Caller :Hello this is Shareen calling you from London about T mobile.


Me : Again?


Caller :Hello this is Shareen  then hangs up on me.


My challenge to you all is can you get the next foreign person who tries to sell you something over the phone to repeat themselves more than 3 times.

Funny, except check your next bill.   You will have been charged for the call.

The same thing happened to me, they have a way of reversing charges.  I complained to Carphone Warehouse and they refunded it and chased up the caller who was in Honk Kong or somewhere.

Honk Kong



Can't do that to me. I don't get a bill. I pay a certain amount to Telewest every month for unlimited calls.

I've lost count of how many times I've seen people write Honk Kong.
