Towards the end of October 2008 I receive a phone call from an advertising agency regarding a wall planner they were producing for a charity and being polite I listened to all their sales pitch. I listened to what they intended to do, to how my company could help with their goals by taking out an advertisement in their planner and to how this would cost me mere £495.
As I had already taken up such advertisements with 2 other advertising agencies I advised the sales representative that I did not wish to take up their service and that should have been the end of it. As you can imagine, I was a very surprised she told me that “you have already agreed to this a few months back”.
I do remember having a conversation with them a couple of months previous when my finances were stretched (as they always seem to be) and I agreed that they could call in a couple of months to see if my circumstances were any better, but to the best of my recollection I had made no such agreement. I had no letters from them about this agreement, no emails, not even any notes to indicate that I had agreed to this, and with both of the other advertising agencies only charging around £200, this commitment of £495 is definitely something I should have been aware of!
