Think I might be decluttering my Broadband supplier.
So I get a call offering me an 'upgrade'. No point in interrupting him in mid flow, so I wait for him to draw breath and say - politely - that I am happy with my present deal and do not want to upgrade.
He hung up on me :mad:
Sorry - I'm the customer - you called me - I declined your offer - you apologise for bothering me and end the call politely.
Trouble is I am on a good deal and don't really want the hassle of notifying all the organisations etc. that have my email address.0 -
