Mack Hall called work last night

[Revenant]

My job involves a front of house role so it's nothing unusual to get a phone call asking for me by name (Contractors etc)

 

17.45 last night the phone rings . . . Conversation basically as follows

 

Me/ Good evening . . blah blah . . can I help you

 

Him/ Can I speak to Mr Revenant

 

Me/ Speaking . . how can I help

 

Him/ I'm calling from Mackenzie Hall

 

Me/ Ahhh Mack Hall . . what's this regarding

 

Pause

 

Him/ I't seems you have an outstanding balance with a company called Cabot

 

Me/ Oh them . . In that case any balance they reckon exists would be miraculous let alone outstanding

 

Him/ Sorry

 

Me/ Don't be as you can't help it

 

Him/ I don't quite understand

 

Me/ That's ok you're not paid to

 

Him/ Do you know who we are and what we do

 

Me/ Oh yes both companies have quite a following on the Consumer Action Group

 

Long pause

 

Me/ Do you like lemons

 

Him/ Pardon

 

Me/ Granted . . lets save both our time as I'm getting bored now . . put everything in writing and make

sure my phone numbers are removed from this file as I'm not allowed to take personal calls at work

. . call me again and I'll pass all your details over to the Managing Agents for this Building on the

grounds that you're making unsolicited/harassing calls . . good night

 

Him/ Ermm ok . . good night

 

Now just waiting for the letter(s) as Cabot have failed to tell Mackies that any dealings I had with them were two highly disputed accounts that they could not supply any supporting paperwork for plus of course the great letters from here tied them up . . Thanks CAG

 

One account went SB late last year and the other early this year and my CRF is now that good that Barclays gave me a credit card for being such a good customer

 

Will update as and when

ps It's not generally advisable to enter into phone conversations with DCA's unless you have the

confidence and can record the call . . in my case it's a bit of both because as I'm involved in the

Security Industry my calls are monitored

Hi Rev

 

You should report them to the OFT, it's against their guidelines to contact you at work. But it's good to see your in control.

Morning Reb

 

I will if they do it again but to be honest they may not have known it was my work number as I generally use my mobile as my point of contact and as I've been here +5yrs who knows what link they found it on

 

Regards

You always seem a busy bunny Brig and glad it gets results

 

The call was a few minutes time wasting at the end of the day whilst waiting for my night officer to arrive but if it had been during office hours he wouldn't have got the time of day

leave things to others, but the powers

contract each year, so yes I do keep

Will have to try the app, I haven't had any calls to wind people up in a long time. Report them to East Ayrshire Trading Standards.,

The next time should they call, you could say you work for security services and all calls are recorded so they can be listened to for security reasons.

After that conversation Rev I would

imagine that poor little office boy

is sitting on the bog blowing bubbles

through every orifice and muttering

about wanting his mummy.:Cry:

Mind you Brig it would depend on how long his brain cell could take to process the fact that he'd just been done
