Guess who just rang me?...

[Ping]

Ok don't bother, it's all part of this heart wrenching story...

I just had a phonecall:

"Hi, is this ****** *****?" (name removed to protect my superhero secret identity)
"Yep."
"Oh hi there, how are you? This is TWO magazine, we recently ran a competition you entered for a Kawasaki..."
*wibble!!* calm, calm... breathe...
*nonchalantly* "Oh yeah?"
"Yeah, we're currently doing 5 issues for £3**, would that be of interest to you?..."
"Er... I'm already a susbrcriber..........."
"Oh are you? Right sorry, Thanks for your time, bye." *click*

Bugger.

** May not be actual deal, but I don't really care anymore...

That must be the best call centre job in the world. "Hello, we're just phoning up to tell you you didn't win. LOOO-SER."

That must have been a shocker seeing as you picked up the mag by accident instead of Good Housekeeping, IIRC :wink:

Few years back the wife and I joined a gym for something like £30 per month and a joining fee of £40. Less than a week later we got a phone call from the same gym "Hi, we are doing a no joining fee offer this weekend only!"

Wife went off the deep end, the gym manager then calls us back to deal with the complaint and says "HEy, if you buy a dress today and it's in a sale next week, then it's in a sale next week and you don't get your money back!"

"yea, but the shop doesn't phone you to rub your nose in it!"






(Best bit still to come...)








(Month later we get our money back and the membership cancelled - wife became the Sales Manager of the gym!)

I won a steering wheel and pedals for my Dreamcast once, for answering questions on Pokemon :oops: Go Charmander!

I was talking to a bloke on a trackday and he had this lovely Crescent Suzuki GSXR1000 (K6) - which he won from T.W.O (or Bike can,t remember). I'm sure he would be disappointed to know that he could have got 5 issues for £3 instead though :lol:
