*Timmargh dials number*

*ring ring*

Them: "Can I take your account or mobile phone number, please."
Me: "Yeah: my mobile number is 07xxxxxxxxx."
Them: "How can I help you?"
Me: "I'm due for an upgrade - can you give me a price for a SonyEricsson Z600, please?"
Them: "We can let you have one of those for £60."
Me: "£60? I can get it for £28 on a website I found."
Them: "Yes, but that'll mean signing a new contract and changing your number."
Me: "No, it won't. I used them last year and it was an upgrade - my number nor my tariff changed."
Them: "Are you sure? Can you give me the address so I can check, please?"
Me: "*sigh* It's www.ukphoneshop.com"

*brief pause while she checks it*

Them: "Well, you weren't lying! Sorry for having to check but we have to be sure."
Me: "I'll let you off."
Them: "I can't do anything about the price of the handset, but I can give you 2 months free line rental instead."
Me: "But that works out at £72."
Them: "Yes."
Me: "You're going to pay me £12 and give me a free phone?"
Them: "Yes."
Me: "Erm ... okay."
Them: "You'll have your new phone by Monday."
Me: "Great."
Them: "Thanks for calling."
Me: "Erm, you're welcome."
