Not a Fun Day

I had reason to call the post office in relation to a credit card query yesterday which is always a daunting prospect.  First off, their 0845 number, so called "cheap" rate is charged at a mobile number rate by Skype and it was delightful watching our credit tick down like a frenzied stop watch as I had to navigate dozens of menus and sub-menus.

What I can't understand is that they as you to enter your 16 digit card number (and a whole raft of other details) and when you finally get to speak to someone human (and that's debatable) they ask you again to quote the same number.

Why?  I've already done so.

Anyhoo, it's done and dusted now and I nearly even laughed when she tried to sell me some shite on the phone.  Lady, I'm calling from Bangkok, at the rate of the national debt, I'm not paying to get a hard sell, kindly bugger orf.
