I had a cold call this morning. The conversation went as followed. "Hi, I'm Emma from the accident helpline. I understand you've been in accident and it wasn't your fault." Me, "Yes, I have been in an accident however it was completely my fault. Goodbye." Then I hung up. What innovative responses have you given to cold callers?
My wife hates it when I answer these.... she is convinced they are going to blacklist me on an instance database
My first reaction reply is to ask which accident as there have been a few....
Then when they say they cannot be specific, I concentrate on one, and let them give the spiel about being able to claim
Then drop in the fact that the Police said it was unlikely I could claim at the time, so what had changed.
Then drop in the fact that the car was stolen and I was high on a mixture of crack cocaine and alcohol at the time, are they sure I can claim
They normally hang up at this point
