Tried that kaya, she is SO pushy - wont let you go until you arrange an interview and meanwhile the queue behind you gets longer & longer. Is embarrassing and that poor man with the wife in a wheelchair was really skewered . Think they trained under the KGB. But now I know its not mandatory I'm fine and will be ready for her !

Just say to her, "No thank you. And whilst you're at it, please can you tick that box on your screen so that you stop asking me this every time I come in, as it's getting quite irritating".

Job done.
If she doesn't get the message after that, then she's a half wit.

Just say No Thank you..she must take your answer. If not tell her you want to speak to her manager.

By the way are you at an English RBS Branch ?

If you are ask her to help you to move to a Scottish branch unless you really want to face her as a Santander employee which will be even worse.

She IS the manager :rotfl: and I have complained about her already

Did you write to RBS head office? I complained about my manager and got an appology from them. An added bonus is that she never asks to see me now:T

Another option would be to arrange an appointment then "forget" to attend. After a few attempts she might get the message and realise she is wasting her time instead of yours.

It's a con. They just want get you into the place so they can subject you to high pressure selling.

I feel like phoning the bank cust services and complaining.

Yes, you should. This is an obnoxious practice and it should be discouraged.

I'm not very good at resisting pushy people so I would probably make the appointment but not turn up. Wonder how many times you could do that before they stop hassling you.

Or one way that seems to put people off a bit is to just stare at them while they do their spiel and then silently shake your head at the end. This is my normal way of being and it does seem to confuse people. They expect me to have a conversation but I barely do conversations with people I know let alone strangers. They then move on to someone they can get a normal reaction out of.

There is a complaints section if you got to the RBS web page. You can file a complaint by email. Looks very straightforward

You didn't say if you were at English RBS branch or not.

When I deposited a cheque in my local bank the teller asked LOUDLY "What are going to do with this money?" I wish I had replied "None of your business". I declined an offer to put it into a Bond and an interview with a bank advisor. Banks are just sales offices now.
