  • Hello, am I speaking with Jim?

  • Yes, who’s this?

  • This is Mike, calling on behalf of Signature Bank. You have been our client for five years. Right, Jim?

  • That’s right. What is this about?

  • Well, we are offering a higher interest rate if you open a savings account with Signature Bank.

  • Nah, I am fine with my current status.

  • Are you sure Jim? This is a great opportunity.

  • Yeah, I’m sure. Thanks for calling though.

  • Thanks for your time.

  • Hello Maam, I am calling from Coventry Health Care.

  • Yes, how can I help you?

  • Well, we are offering health insurance with better premiums to valued customers.

  • That’s great to hear. But I am satisfied with my current insurance.

  • I’m sure yours is a good one but we have medical centers all across the country and we also offer dental as well.

  • Just give me two minutes so that I can explain the details.

  • I’m really sorry but I have to go out. I’m already late.

  • No problem. Thanks for your time.

  • Am I speaking with Jim Novak?

  • Yes. This is Jim.

  • Jim, this is Jack from Bank of America. I have some good news.

  • Is that so? All right. I’m listening.

  • You have been banking with us for several years so youve been granted a credit card for your wife at no additional cost.

  • That’s great. So I’ll just have to pay for what I buy right?

  • That’s right, Mr. Novak.

  • Good to hear. My wife would love to have a credit card for herself.

  • Great. I’ll send someone over so that we can deal with the formalities.

  • Okay, let’s just schedule a day.

  • Hello?

  • Hi Nancy. This is Mike from AT&T Incorporation.

  • Yes, how can I help you?

  • Nancy you have been using our prepaid connection for a couple of years, right?

  • Yeah, that’s right.

  • How would you like a post-paid connection that allows you to make free unlimited voice calls to 3 AT&T numbers?

  • I would love that. But what’s the catch?

  • There’s no catch. There will be a monthly rental which you will have to pay, like any other post-paid connection.

  • Fantastic. Sign me up.
