daibhidcYou know, I'm a fairly easy-going person. If someone phones and tells me they aren't selling anything, I believe them. If they ask if I can answer a few questions I usually say yes.
But is there any point in asking questions if you aren't going to listen to the answers? I couldn't even get him to accept my name; he had me down as P. Kennedy, therefore I couldn't be saying "David", I must be saying "Peter", even when I spelt it out for him. When he kept asking me to confirm I had £5,000 debt, while I was practically shouting down the phone "No! I have no debts!" I just had to hang up.
Edit: Come to think of it, I'm sure Mum's signed us up for something which means we're not supposed to get calls like that.
