What's going on?I was in the park earlier this week happily watching some poor people fight over a £5 note I had left on the floor when my mobile rang.
The woman on the phone claimed to be from my bank. She told me she wished to discuss my account but first I had to furnish her with eveything from the mother's maiden name to my shoe size all for 'security purposes'.
I told her to piss off because I didn't know who she was and I wasn't about to hand over a load of personal information to a complete stranger on the telephone.
Why do these people need to know your life story before they'll discuss anything with you?

Well you might be a terrorist trying to launder a few bob.
Tell me did the poor people settle their disspute over the fiver before they had to go and draw their benefits

No, I told them that if they ripped it in half they would have £2.50 each.
They were too stupid to see the irony.

Same here raymond... i phoned my bank up to cancel a direct debit and they asked me like about 20 million questions, well not 20 million but get my drift, before he would tell me any details on my account and it pisses me right off and they asked me what my mothers maiden name as one of the security questions and i told him but he turned round and said that my answear was wrong and i thought to myself that im sure that i know my mothers maiden name but i think he miss heard me on the phone as the phone isn't very clear when you speak to people a little muffled.. so now he told me i have to go into the bank and do it over the counter. All that bloody hassle for 1 damn question does my head in just want to shoot them all.

Did you see the program last Monday evening where we were shown how easy it is for anyone to buy our information from Indian call centres?
I have not complied with giving information over the phone over the last 3 years, be it a survey or the Bank ringing me.
Last week I had a call from SKY repair or so they called themselves.
They used my name in the introduction, and said they were contacting me after I had called them.
I replied that it would be of no use for me to contact Sky repair, as I have not been connected to sky since 1997.
The man on the other end gave an embarrassed apology and hung up.
Guess their information was way out of date and a scam was avoided.
ROFL
