Opening an account



A: Good morning, can I help you
B: Yes, I'd like to open a deposit account.
A: Certainly Sir. Would you like a Silver or a
Gold account?
B: What's the difference?
A: You can open a Silver account with just £5.
The account comes with a cash card so you can
withdraw your money at any time. The Silver
account currently pays 5% interest. For the Gold

to give 14 days notice to withdraw money. The
interest rate is 6.5%.

A: How much would you like to deposit
B: £500
A: And we'll need two proofs of ID; telephone
bill, driving licence, credit card statement
etc.

don't have any of those on
me. I'll come back tomorrow.

three months ago, but the sound and picture quality
are awful. The picture is always flickering and
there's a dark line down the left-hand side of the
screen. And there's an annoying hissing sound in the
background.

B: Yes, I do.
A: Have you tried adjusting the aerial?

A: Hmmmmm. I'll get our engineers to have a look at
it.

had exactly the same problems. I want a refund.

sir.
B: I want to see the manager.

A bad holiday


A: Good morning, can I help you?
B.: I'd like to make a
complaint about my holiday in Portugal last week
A: I'm sorry to hear that. What exactly was the
problem?
B: First of all the coach taking us to the hotel
broke down and we had to wait for over two hours in
the sweltering heat before a replacement arrived.
Then when we got to the hotel we found our room
hadn't been cleaned.
A: Oh dear, did you complain to the hotel staff?
B: Of course, but we were told all the chambermaids
were off duty. Anyway, that's not all. The people in
the room above sounded like they were having
all-night parties, every night. I demanded another
room but the receptionist told me the hotel was
full.
A: Oh, I see.
B: And to cap it all the food in the hotel
restaurant was awful. It was so bad we had to eat
out all the time despite having paid
for meals in
the price of our holiday.
A: I do apologise. I'd like to offer you a 20%
discount on the price of one of our Autumn breaks as
a gesture of goodwill.
B: A 20% discount, you must be joking. I want to see
the manager.
