Today I received a telegram. I held it with great excitement and couldn’t wait to open it. I had not seen nor heard of telegrams being sent for a good number of years. Heck, weddings don’t even read them out anymore.
Imagine my anger when I open it to find that it’s a fake telegram generated by Dunn & Bradstreet Australia on behalf of Telstra trying to collect for the fictitious amount generated by their billing system error.
Yet more of my time wasted calling yet another person, to again explain myself.
I wish there was some way to seek compensation for this sort of behaviour. I am lucky this week I have time to deal with and follow up on this issue. If I was away with a show – all this would be happening without my knowledge given I have not once received a phone call about this issue.

Telstra have now finally settled. After weeks of wasting time with one of their resolution staff, I kicked up a stink and had her removed from the equation. 45 minutes after getting a new case officer, everything is resolved to my satisfaction.
