UFINDUS again
« on: February 15, 2006, 11:27:10 am »
Oh no, its ufindus time again for me, its daily and they get on my nerves.
The last chap who just phoned reached a new low even for this useless company.
I was cheesed off straight away because I could hardly hear what he was saying because of the music he was playing in the background ( these people must work from home then). He was really defensive when I asked him his name and would not give me a telephone number ( thats ironic ).

We belong to the TPS, but this company just don't care.

Why the music in the background, had them today again, and she would not take no for an answer, so I hanged up.

Whats the TPS?

You had music to??
ufindus actually want us to hear that rubbish, I presumed the loser that phoned me was a clueless idiot that didn't know any different and was phoneing from home. Unless you had the same idiot I did, it wasn't Andrew Thompson was it?
( something about his surname made me think he wasn't telling the truth )

Watch out for the music as it could contain hidden subliminal messages that only your subconscious can remember, saying buy from us, buy from us :D :D :D

Actually this form of advertising is banned. it was trialled in shops but withdrawn. With the way the shop sales are at the moment, they might just return to it.

I registered with the TPS, but waste of time due to their hidden telephone Nos and no name given.

All these companies are a pain in the arse i talk too more call centres in india than i do my wife! Broke a record on Thursday while Cleaning a lounge carpet, had 5 Calls in row all trying to sell me a new mobile phone.

As for ufindus tell them to go find them selves! but not quite so politely.
