I had a call from 1-514-484-7140 a few minutes ago. Of course, it was a telemarketer. The old "Your credit card is ok but we can help you with it." ploy. Hit 1 to talk to an operator or 2 to not get called again.
As in the past, I started off with 2 just to prove it doesn't work. It didn't. According to the computer it was invalid. Of course it accepted 1 and sent me to an operator. As before the operator had an east-Indian accent.
He started his spiel from the minute the line opened. "Hello. I can help you lower the rates on your credit card. We ..."
I cut him off with my old spiel "What bank are you with?"
"Oh sir, we are not a bank. We are a company that can help you lower your interest rate by at least 10%."
"Wow." I replied, deciding to take a different route. "That is fantastic."
"Yes it is sir. We can do this ..."
I cut him off again. "Can you lower it by more than that?"
"Oh it is possible sir. I would have to get your credit card information and then we can see how much it can be lowered."
"Amazing!"
"Yes sir. Can I have your information."
"Amazing that you claim to know my credit card information and can lower my rate when I don't own a credit card."
He hung up. :)
Fucktards.
