TELEKOM, STREAMYX & TELEMARKETING

Most of the times, I get really annoyed with those telemarketing calls, especially when I am in one of my foulest mood, which can be quite frequent.

I get calls from finance companies, offering me loans. Sorry, but I do not need your money and get myself into debts around my waist (hutang sekeliling pinggang). Btw, my waist not that big also loh.

I get calls from people selling hotel progammes, like you pay $xxx, get 1 night free stay at the hotel, 4-6 vouchers of 50% discount on their sisters/brother properties, meals vouchers, discount cards, etc etc.

I get calls from medical centres, telling me that no amount of wealth can equals to good health. Definitely loh, will they give me free check up meh, if I don't have money to pay them?

I get calls from credit cards companies, offering me more credit cards. Even if they are free, ello, I still have to pay for the RM50.00/card govt tax annually.

I do sometimes entertained calls from telemarketers, whom know what they are offering, since they are only trying to earn an honest living.

Getting calls from those whom don't do their homework, really gets on my nerves, cos they never bother, with the tidak apa attitude. Just hentam saja and then they kena hentam from me.

Received a call on my mobile this morning from a 019 - xxxxx.
Conversation goes like this :-

019 hello, ini …………………….? (is this ……………….?)

Me ya (yes)

019 saya panggil dari Telekom (I am calling from Telecom)

Me ya

019 Boleh tanya di rumah cik ada servis Streamyx? (do you have Streamxy service at your house?)

Me You panggil dari Telekom, you tak tahu kalau saya ada streamxy ka tidak? Pergi cek lah.
(You calling from Telekom, how come you don’t know if I have streamxy. Go check your record

019 she just hung up


See, basic telemarketing procedure pun tak tau, how to sell lah.
