So the other day I got yet another call from my cellphone provider. I run a debit order for R100 of airtime and data per month that more than meets my needs. I work at home nowadays and I have 50 Mbps fibre. Little need for any stinking mobile data. New phone? Meh. My ancient Samsung A9 is just wonderful.
As you know, there is no reasoning with these thick skinned people. You can politely say no but they keep talking. No is not part of the script. You can be rude and hang up. Not to worry, they will call back.
This time I am ready. Not much to do, plenty of time to waste. Especially theirs. So I am in for everything they are selling. One gig per month. Forget that, make it ten. Huawei Lite, nah. Who drinks Coke Lite anyway? Make mine an S21. I up the ante to about R1000 per month. When they wanted to talk delivery, terms and conditions I developed amnesia. Never said that. Oh yes you did. Yes but I was lying through my teeth.
After six minutes of the the penny drops and they hang up. Politely nogal.
I amafraid hopeful that this sort of behavior will get me in their black books. :Whoohoo:
