Craziest Call I have Ever Taken

[Ironclad Alibi]

Winnie the Pooh Bear will do to great lengths to get a pot of honey.

You know, I always thought there was something sinister about Mr. Bean's Teddy.

Could have been Rupert Bear.

Nah, Rupert is too much of a goody-goody to do something like that. Paddington on the other hand, might if he was despertate enough for his next marmalade fix

"it waszh a tiny liddle bear that stole it, I seen him myzhelf, with my own eyes, tiny liddle bear, too tiny i couldn't even really see him........."
I was so at this I actually said ""A tiny little bear stole your bank card?"

I'm thinking it might have really been "a tiny little BEER" - followed by about 20 not-so-tiny ones.

[Tama]

Tell us when he starts seeing four horsemen.

[chainedbarista]

well, at least he's more imaginative and seeing bears, rather than pink elephants.

Or hookers with big BooBoos.

Yogi! The ranger will not be happy about that..

He better watch his credit statement, and see if there are any charges he doesn't recognize, like ones for "Pick a nick baskets"

And it continues..............what is going on this week?

Disclaimer on This one, I am not mocking people with genuine problems, it was just that the call was...............well, you will see...........surreal.

Customer phones, and I ascertain that he is due an authorisation credit, it had been difficult getting to that point because customer was blind drunk and slurring his words very badly, also he couldn't remember a lot about his address, etc, however he did have a friend with him who was slightly less drunk who did kow his address, who I could just about uderstand.

I could not hang up because they were both very polite, just very difficult to understand.

So............I get to the part where I ask him if he wants me to credit the authorisation payment into his bank account, and here's where it gets surreal.

Customer starts to cry, and in bewteen sobs tells me that his bank card has been stolen and he says

"it waszh a tiny liddle bear that stole it, I seen him myzhelf, with my own eyes, tiny liddle bear, too tiny i couldn't even really see him........."

I was so at this I actually said ""A tiny little bear stole your bank card?"

At this point I could hear his friend berating him "It wasn't the tiny little bear, it was someone who robbed you"

I finished the call, did what needed to be done for him, and wished him good day.

That TINY LIDDLE BEAR will stay in my thoughts for sometime I think.
