" A 13-month-old baby in Leeds has been given an apology from Barclaycard after they sent her an application for a credit card.

Abi McDermott Knott, of Armley, was sent a form inviting her to apply for a platinum card with 0% interest until December. "

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh

13-month old? WTF?! :1orglaugh

Hilarious mistake! :1orglaugh

lol they figured if they get you while you are young you will be a customer for life! :1orglaugh

What is not funny is how they got the info

In Poland my grandpa - dead since 5 years - still gets letters from some institutions.

Exactly!

true.

Yeah, my grandfather has been dead nearly 3 years now and still gets letters from the banks, after them being told atleast 5 times that he's gone.

Thats lame.. I do wonder where they get the names and addresses from.

fucking people, tired of those

well it's like drugs
you gotta get them while their young
hook them at an early age
so they depend on you to get thru the afternoon spellling bee

all that stress.. need somethign to get you thru it:thumbsup

A few months ago they did a story on the Today show about a dog who got a CC application. The owner thought it was funny so he filled it out. They actually sent the card! The owner was ticked because the dog got a better interest rate than he had. :1orglaugh

LMAO :1orglaugh

when i was doing telemarketing for 3 months years back, i got a number for a guy that was handicapped. his mom chewed me out on the phone so bad too hah. "wtf does my son need a credit card for, he cant even bathe himself" etc.. .

i had a couple of calls where the person was dead, that always sucked..

i got to call a "Harry Sacks" once, so that that made the job worth it right there.

funny, but its just another sign of how fucking annoying spammers are
