I have. Last time I was getting insurance quotes, I called one that my employer happened to use for their business. I had been on their policy when travelling, so the insurer knew I worked there.

However, when I asked for the quote, I specifically said "Call my cell, here's the number." They ignored that instruction and called work instead and went through the BS of getting the call transferred to me.

I asked them why they didn't call my cell phone like I asked. No real answer, they just kind of ignored it and started in with asking about a quote. Stopped them and said that I couldn't count on them to follow the first instruction I gave them which was to call my cell only, not interested anymore.

They actually called again later in the week (work number) and started the spiel all over. Just hung up.

I work with people like this. I ask a yes or no question and they start with a dissertation on the various aspects of plastics in ethernet cables in the middle ages and their relevance to coffee.
