A SENIOR MOMENT......
A 98 year old
woman in the UK wrote this to her bank. The bank
manager thought it amusing enough to have it published in the
Times.
Dear
Sir,
I
am writing to thank you for bouncing my cheque with which I endeavoured to
pay my plumber last month. By my calculations, three nanoseconds must have
elapsed between his presenting the cheque and the arrival in my account of
the funds needed to honour it. I refer, of course, to the automatic
monthly deposit of my Pension, an arrangement, which, I admit,
has only been in place for a mere thirty eight years. You are
to be commended for seizing that brief window of opportunity, and also for
debiting my account £30 by way of penalty for the inconvenience caused to your
bank .
My thankfulness
springs from the manner in which this incident has caused me to rethink my
errant financial ways. I noticed that whereas I personally attend to your
telephone calls and letters, when I try to contact you, I am confronted by the
impersonal, overcharging, pre-recorded, faceless entity which your bank
has become. From now on, I, likeyou, choose only to deal with a
flesh-and-blood person.
My mortgage and loan payments will therefore and
hereafter no longer be automatic, but will arrive at your bank by cheque,
addressed personally and confidentially to an employee at your bank
whom you must nominate. Be aware that it is an offence under the
Postal Act for any other person to open such an envelope. Please find
attached anApplication Contact Status which I require your chosen employee
to complete. I am sorry it runs to eight pages, but in order
that I know as much about him or her as your bank knows about me, there is
no alternative. Please note that all copies of his or her medical history
must be countersigned by a Solicitor, and the mandatory details of
his/her financial situation (income, debts, assets and liabilities)
must be accompanied by documented proof.
In due course, I will issue your employee with PIN
number which he/she must quote in dealings with me. I regret that it
cannot be shorter than 28 digits but, again, I have modelled it on
the number of button presses required of me to access my account balance
on your phone bank service. As they say, imitation is the most
sincere form of flattery.
Let me level the playing field even
further. When you call me, press buttons as follows:
1. To make an appointment to see
me.
2. To query a missing payment.
3. To transfer the call to
my living room in case I am there.
4. To transfer the call to my
bedroom in case I am sleeping.
5. To transfer the call to my toilet in
case I am attending to nature.
6. To transfer the call to my mobile
phone if I am not at home.
7. To leave a message on my computer (a
password to access my computer is required. A password will be
communicated to you at a later date for the Authorized Contact.)
8. To
return to the main menu, and to listen to options 1 through to
8.
9. To make a general complaint or inquiry, the contact will
then be put on hold, pending the attention of my automated answering
service.
While this may,
on occasion, involve a lengthy wait, uplifting music will play for the
duration of the call.
Regrettably, but again following your
example, I must also levy an establishment fee to cover the setting
up of this new arrangement.
May I wish you a happy, if ever so
slightly less prosperous, New Year.
Your Humble Client, Myrtle J Watson.
(Remember: This was written by a 98
year old woman...................DOESN'T SHE MAKE YOU
PROUD!)
