weird call

July 2, 2009

Now that has to be the weirdest call I ever received… Vodafone woke me up from a nap.

Why? To tell me that I’m a “special customer” and will receive 25% off my next bill.

Sounds like a set-up to sell me something, right? Especially since I was initially, understandably I think, a bit snippy to find out it was only Vodafone who woke me up from deep sleep, and noticing my snippy tone the nice woman on the other end asked if it was a “bad time” to talk. Since the sleep part was already ruined, I figured I’d just get the sales schlock over with and asked her to go ahead and proceed.

But nope, that was it. She just wanted to know if it was a bad time to tell me that I’m a special customer and will receive 25% off my next bill. Nothing else.

Let me just say- if that was a prank call, it was genius.
