Low-life twit award winning company

Low-life twit award goes to this company. ARGH!

The phone rang at 5:20 this morning. It rang 4 times before I could get from one end of the house to the other to grab it - and by that time it was an open line. Back to bed.

The phone rang at 5:25 this morning. It rang 4 times before I could get from one end of the house to the other to grab it - and by that time it was an open line. GRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!

I sat in my chair cradling the phone waiting . . . waiting . . . waiting.

The phone rang at 5:30 this morning. Hello . . . hello . . . . HELLO! Young lady talking to me - almost impossible to hear her as there is such a clamor of talkers behind her.

Do you have any idea what time it is? I ask sweetly. Erm, well, no, I just got to work. she says.

Well, you have been busy as this is the THIRD time you have called me - the first two times you hung up before I could get there. No, this is only the second time I have called you.

May I speak to your supervisor please?

What?

May I speak with your supervisor, please!

Please hold - I will see if he is busy - I don't want you to think I am hanging up on you.

irritating elevator music in my ear . . . .

Hello?

May I have your name?

(he even spelled it out for me)

What is the name of this company?

Low-life twit award winning company in Quebec.

Well, (enter twit's name here) you have called me THREE times this morning - getting me out of bed twice to hang ups . . .

No, we have only called once.

Funny, your girl just told me she had only called me twice!

erm . . . stutter . . . stammer

do you have ANY idea what time it is?

no . . . .

It is FIVE-thirty a.m.! Do you have ANY idea where you are calling?

Yes - Arkansas!

ARGH!!! NO!!!!
AK stands for ALASKA! It is 5:30 a.m. You have disturbed my rest - I am not a happy camper . . . .

(buzzzzzzzzzz)

the twit hung up on me.

I googled the to see that this self same Low-life twit award winning company is a SCAM operation (well, duh, moosie, you already had that one figured out.)

I called their 800 number and got a recording asking me to leave my name and number . . . gah! No, I didn't, but I did leave a "nice" message about their sales staff.

And then I did something I should have done when it first came available . . . I signed up for the National Do Not Call Registry. Sure hope they take care of Quebec, also.

Last word from a very tired, sleep deprived moose tonight . . . .

beware calls from such Low-life twit award winning companies. You'll sleep better.

And, so will I.

Night all

I've been on the no call list since it started. Still get a few calls - dummies leave their company name, their name, phone number. One just leaves their phone number and wishes us a good day. I've turned every one of them in at the registry, but one of them has now called twice and been reported twice. You'd think they'd learn.
