Do we supply any other services? - No, but why the silly question?
How do you pay your bill? - Does it not say on the screen in front of you? - Yes but we have to ask these questions - That's ridiculous
Can you confirm the amount on your last statement? - Is that information also on the screen in front of you? - Yes, but we have to - Go away, bye *click*

Not fussed if they turn up or not now, will probably change supplier.
Getting absolutely fed up with having to go through 20 questions every time I answer the damn phone

I must next time say when I get the "you've been in a accident".

I must say either "what the one where I hit an elephant" or "Do you mean the one I was killed in"
Or better still, "The one with a Circus Dwarf, the elephant and a tub od industrial lub?"
