One morning I saw an online survey about refinancing your mortgage through the HARP program and thought I’d see what we might be able to save. I filled out the questionnaire, and then it began asking for my name, phone, email, address, etc., all the while saying I would never be contacted.
Well, the autofill on the computer started with Carlos’ name and no sooner that I had hit the enter button to find my savings, did the phone start ringing from Quicken Loans. I ignored the first four calls, but on the fifth, I politely told the caller that Carlos wasn’t home, and we weren’t interested in talking refinance right then, but that it was something we would look into.
Cut to the evening when we get home from work and there are messages and messages from Quicken Loans and evidence of 8-10 calls from them during the day. Right after dinner, the phone rang, and, yes, Quicken Loans. Carlos took the call and, well, let’s just say he was like Ricky Ricardo ripping Lucy a new one for one of her hairbrained schemes.
It.Was.Magical.
