A week ago, I had a cold call (number withheld) from someone with a very strong Indian accent called 'Barry', who said he was calling from the local council. Intrigued, I let him carry on. |

If someone phones ME and asks me to confirm any details, apart from admitting I am the person they asked for, I always refuse. They called ME and yet I can't confirm who THEY are. |

My sister once had an interesting call - from her bank. |

My contention with the bank when they ring is how do I know THEY are who they say they are! I had a chap ring my home number from his mobile when I was out once saying he was my bank and to ring him back on his mobile. The first thing is you worry what might be wrong or has happened. I didn't know his name and ended up phoning my local branch for them to check who he was first. It turned out he was the manager of the branch where I opened my account and which I never use! By the time I got hold of him all it was was a courtesy call, so I told him his courtesy call had caused me concern, cost me 2 phone calls and wasted time. :-S He hasn't rung since. |
