Sadly, I haven't had a single call from such types ever since we changed to
Naked ADSL around 6 years ago. My history of conversation with such types
may have had something to do with this. -- "Oh yes, sounds excellent, let
me get my credit card <interminable pause>, random string of numbers, oh
no, that my bankcard, no, no hang on a sec ... hows the weather?, I forget,
what am I buying again?... Ah, here it is, my Masters Card, it doesn't have
numbers on it though? My Bunnings one does, would you like it?... "

Or not and it's just yet another plus of naked ADSL.
