Immediately as I walk through the front door -
Him: You may have to cancel your credit card.
Me: . . .
Him: . . .
Me: Um . . . why?
Him: Well, they called again and I answered and they asked for you and I told the woman, “She’s not here right now, but I notice you call for her ALL THE TIME. Is she behind on her payments?” And the woman said, “No, no. She’s always on time. She’s just a new customer and we’re trying to offer her a few of our security products.” And that’s when I started to yell.
Me: *groans*
Him: I was pissed. I told her, “Why the hell would she want to buy your security products when you’re discussing her private account information with someone other than her?! Apparently you don’t understand what security is! You don’t even know who I am! Now stop calling here!” And I hung up on her.
Me: Ok, while you made a very good point, maybe you could have handled that better?
Him: Maybe. Anyway, you may want to cancel that card now. I don’t think they’re happy with you.
Me: Awesome. Thanks.
* By the way, it wasn’t MasterCard.
I think he did you a favor! I’d keep it. At least they probably won’t be calling now!

Yeah, I’m totally keeping it. It’s the only real credit card I have. I just notice that he only makes a scene if it’s something unrelated to him. Like, if his favorite restaurant screws up his order, he doesn’t throw a fit, yet when I had my own apartment he once came back from the nearby pizza place and informed me, “By the way, you can never go there again. I don’t think you’re welcome.”

Hahaha, he’s awesome and you know, he had a point!

Nicely done. Husbands are so helpful.

I like the way he handled it, lol!

OK, I know the intent of the post was to entertain, but since I’m a goober, and I do this crap for a living…if you ever do speak with them regarding their “Security Products,” ask them why, if they are actually complying with the Payment Card Industry (PCI) standards for personal privacy and security, would you NEED to purchase additional security products?
GWA HA HA HA HA HA HA!
