Anyone else getting these pestering phone calls from standard chartered bank? Have now had 2 in 2 days offering me a loan at "very low interest rates" combined with a platinum credit card.
When you tell them you're not interested and you have money thank you very much, it's the "maybe i can tell you more about it so you understand better" spiel
Patronising bastards as if people don;t know what loans are.
It's starting to get really annoying

I average about 2 a week from them. Both on my mobile and my office DID line which isn't even printed on my business card.

yeah, i got the call from them as well ..
just when i said no to the person calling in the morning, another lady call in the afternoon.
i still have no idea how they get my new office number!
guess they're just doing their job - though sometimes its annoying

yep, have been receiving a lot of calls from them too... seems like the marketing of standard chartered is outsourced to a company called efusion.. and based on what one of the marketers I've talked to, they have quotas to fill every week.. this is probably the reason why we keep getting calls from different people offering the same product... I just tell them I have spare cash and don't need the loan... still works for me..
