Clientele Legal Telemarketing Prank

Telemarketing calls me today to offer me life cover. I’m busy, never rude so I decline and hang up.

They call back 8 times just to hang up on my each time I do actually answer

Late afternoon they call back again and start the whole sales pitch. By this time I’ve had enough and insist on talking to a manager. I’m placed on hold and conveniently cut off.

Great service legal team. Absolutely atrocious, shocking and unprofessional behavior from such an institution.

Reviewer Update
Further to this reply, I was contacted by Clientele.
They claimed that I was only contacted twice, once in the morning when I declined the offer of services and second in the afternoon when another agent called and I insisted to speak to a a manager.

I requested an email, to which I’ve now sent them screen shots of my call history clearly showing the 8 calls. Truecaller did a great job of clearly identifying Clientele.

No reply as yet.

Firstly, if I declined the service in the morning, why call back in the afternoon?
Secondly, the investigator from Clientele didn’t have all his facts to start with. Even more of concern that they don’t know what is going on in their own company.
