Corporate IdiocyComedian Al Murray recounts a run-in with industrial-scale stupidity: "Car insurance company rang, without having sent me a renewal letter, asking for money. Made them answer security questions." In the same vein, tell us your stories about pointless paperwork and corporate quarter-wits

Similarly related...Whilst I loathe the way TV liscening is enforced, I try to imagine that most of the people working for them are dispassionate about their job and only doing it to make ends meet.
So after moving to a new flat, informing the TV liscening company we had moved and no, we still don't have a TV. Then 3 months later re-applying that information online that I still didn't have a TV, the surprise visit by the inspector 6 months later was... well a surprise.
When he asked if he could come upstairs to check, I said he was welcome to by all means. He then replied "don't worry then, I can see you are willing to let me in so I'm sure you are telling the truth". Top notch investigation.
