Caller wanted to speak with owner ASAP. Same situation - told him to call at 11:30. it was 12:30 when he called. He identified himself as 'Chris' from Douglas Company - said he had an 'Urgent Legal Matter'. When I wouldn't transfer him to my boss, he wanted his cell number - NOW. He kept interrupting me and wouldn't let me finish a sentence. I had to finally get rude back and told him at the very least he has to listen to what I am replying to his silly demands. He says he will call back - Good Luck I said getting through me.....
This caller was extremely rude. Insisting that he had an appointment to speak to our owner at 2:30 central time. I told him our owner was not in the office. He said 'go and look'. I said I didn't have to because I know he is not here. "Are you sure" he said. I said I was sure. "I need to speak to him, go and get him now", was his response. He was extremely insistent, extremely rude. "Put him on the phone please" he said next. I put our manager on the phone and she could not believe how rude this person was. Worst experience with a telemarketer EVER'.
I just had the same type of phone call. i advised the caller that the owner was not in the office and he said "well i need to get into contact with him right now!" i have never heard such a rude demanding person like this. I told him that he had to leave a message and he said he didnt want too that he wanted to wait on the line until the owner was avialble. Seriously, not a good way to start the day.
Very rude indeed. He asked for the name of the new owner of the company and when I repeatedly asked him what this was regarding, he eventually said it was "Chris" calling from "The Scott Group". He did ask for one of the old owners by name, and when I gave him the first name of one of the new owners, he promptly hung up. The call display shows this number and the name 'UNKNOWN'.
