Any similar experiences?
I've had similar - people with thick accents saying they are from Telstra and wanting to see if I'm getting the most out of my current plan. Maybe I am now overly cynical about people cold-calling me in foreign accents. Last time I got one, I told him that I wanted to speak with his supervisor and the line went dead. 'Nuff said?
