My Grandad had lots of telesales calls....
...just after my Gran had died asking if he wanted to take out life insurance for him and his wife. Obviously this was quite upsetting for him given the circumstances and each time he would explain that his wife had died and say no thank you.
He must have been called one time too many however because when one company called him he said that yes, he would like like to take out life insurance for he and his wife and spend the best part of half an hour giving the man on the phone all of his details. Once this was completed he said `right then - I'd like to make a claim - my wife died 3 weeks ago'. They didn't call him again.
