Dont businesses want custom ?

Had a very odd conversation with a company a few minutes ago. Our washing machine has died i looked on line for repairs but its easier and almost cheaper to buy a new one. Ordered it and they rang to ask why i buy so much ? ?

Ive had a tumble drier, fridge and a freezer from the company in the last 12 months apparently thats unusual and they were puzzled.

Is it me or is that an odd attitude ?

I go back to the one company because they are pretty good but im seriously wondering if ill do so again.

Re: Dont businesses want custom ?

Maybe they're suggesting you may benefit from a repair?

Your washing machine may just have a blocked pump.

I don't understand them ringing to ask you, though.

Its odd..........you seem to attract odd behaviour from strangers

They may think you are Money Laundering.

Re: Dont businesses want custom ?

Have other people had problems when ordering goods on line from Argos? When my order came on Saturday the bag had been split open and an item was missing. I took the courier's advice and sent everything back. The fun I am having trying to get sense out of the firm! I am e-mailing them as I refuse point blank to pay 60p a minute to phone them, that is daylight robbery! Once this mess is sorted out I will definitely not have dealings with them in future.
