Get lost!
I answered wondering who was calling me - only to be treated to an automated voice promising me a wonderful car insurance premium and inviting me to "push 1 for a call-back or to push 9 to opt out".
Opt out!!! Why the hell should I opt out when you had no right to call me in the first instance - and waste my time on a busy day!
I was so irritated that I pushed 1 - just so that I could k*k the person out when they called me thinking that they had a hot lead. I also want to know the name of the company who would stoop to this level of marketing.
Unfortunately I missed the call-back which was made an hour later from 021 557 **91 - but I am hoping that the person is going to try again, and I will get a chance to vent my spleen.
Surely this has to be illegal? It is certainly the very nadir of marketing. Does anyone know who they are?
