All this thing about calling numbers etc. brought back to mind about somebody who I had heard of he had a very nice little earner, it went like this.
He had a number 0898 number , but back in the day these were really premium rate, UK Forum member will remember how high these prices were.
So on the back and sides of his legitimate van he had 0898 etc. with these words.
If the driver of this vehicle is not driving in a courteous many please call the transport Manager immediately on 0898 . . . . . . .
So if you are cut up by the driver or he blows his horn or other occurrences you call this number.
You are answered immediately by a very kind voice who tells you that they will immediately go and get the Manager who is in a meeting but has given orders for him to be brought to the phone forthwith., then nice music is played while you wait for the manager, you end the phone call in your own time after you have got sick of waiting
In the meantime the errant van driver continues driving like a T**t and blowing his horn regardless and all the time coining it in.
