They all have sales targets to hit or they are out. Her logic was probably that now you are debt free you may want to get some new debt to buy a car etc... because you're clearly a good credit risk

Yup gotta agree on that one, yes common sense, but she probably gets audited if she doesn't ask.
I work for a mortgage lender and work with intermediaries (mortgage brokers basically) and done bright spark in upper management thinks it's a good idea at every point of contact to ask the broker if they have any more applications for us.
So you can imagine:
Hello Mr Broker, yeah sorry I have to decline this application you submitted and I can tell you why (if it's fraud you can't tip them off) so sorry about that (insert here the usual abuse you will get).....but do you have any other applications for us?
It'll more likely be computer logic telling them to do that rather than staff discretion.They all have sales targets to hit or they are out. Her logic was probably that now you are debt free you may want to get some new debt to buy a car etc... because you're clearly a good credit risk
Yeah, she probably did/does, but c'mon, there's a point when you've just got to read the room, unless one is an actual human robot or an idiot.
I had to offer all kinds of crap when I was a car salesman, and yes we were audited (the customer was expected to sign a form saying they didn't want this that and the other), but I never ever pushed a customer to do it or pushed the products if there was little interest.
Whats the point? It just sours the whole exciting experience of buying a new car.

I dunno why but i just burst laughing imagining a laid back rasta dude smoking a big reefer in the diary section
Bought a £7K TV (OLED WALLPAPER, thinnest tv ever made) from the local Indian electronics store. Paid for installation.
They drilled 10 additional holes into the wall and broke the TV in the process (snapped it on purpose, think they was jealous).
Wall mounted it myself after getting a replacement.
Few years later got vertical banding.
Took them 6 attempts to try and take the TV.
Few lessons learnt
(i) don't buy from the local Indian electronics store
(ii) don't buy a bespoke TV that people have never heard of, as they probably don't have the processes in place if things go wrong.

Yep, there was two of them. Literally delivery men for a £7k TV.
One of them was slightly more competent than the other, the other was a complete imbecile.
They attempted to put it on the wall, and I saw him bending the TV on purpose. I told him to stop. Then it snapped. They took it away.
Called customer service, mentioned what happened, they sent me a replacement and I installed it.. literally the easiest install. Only reason why I didn't was because it was "free" install.
Ah bummer, when I buy my £7k tellies from Curry's they always send me the £7k+ installation team.

Lol
This was a very bespoke TV. Very specific type of install. You would expect them to have some sort of training on it. They did not have a F clue.
The one guy who snapped the TV was a right numpty.
Don't!
I'm trying very hard not to swap my S 1000R for a M 1000R or a Tuono Factory, and you posting that doesn't help
You bought a £7k tv from Currys. As crap as it sounds, I'd expect nothing less from that absolute abortion of a company.
I wouldn't buy a mouse mat from them.

I've already got my work cut out convincing @Hades' wife to let him buy a bike, adding you to the list is small change

Yeah, lesson learnt

70 of those Polaroid jobs, black friday deal innit. Had to batter a few kids to get them tho
Yeah, lesson learnt
My hatred of that dumpster fire of a company is fairly well documented on here
How the hell do Currys stay in business?
Rant time. I've been to Curry's many, many times over the last 13 years I've lived in the UK. It's always, and I mean always more expensive than I can find online, there and then on my phone. The service is non-existent, to the point I've actually wondered if anyone works there at all. On the...
