When I used to work with a bunch of other ex-RAF SNCOs we would all gather round the phone and listen while we strung the caller along for a good 15 minutes.
The old one about 'ringing about your car accident' was a favourite.
"which one? I've had a few recently"
In one of these I told them I had several cars and he would need to tell me which one it was he was ringing about.
He answered that he couldn't divulge that info due to Data Protection Laws as he couldn't be sure it was me he was talking to.
In another classic, my mate told them yes he'd been hit by another car.
No he didn't get a registration, but it was a distinctive car as it was mostly yellow but with red wings.
The driver had a blue hat.
Oh, and the passenger had a beard and very big ears.
.............At this point the supervisor came on the line and accused us of wasting his time.
