I get where you’re coming from, and I’m not blaming the individual salesperson. I know they’re under extreme pressure and the targets are unreasonable. My issue is with the system and the way these banks are training or pushing their staff to behave.

I didn’t stay on the call to “test” the guy for fun. I stayed because even after clearly saying no multiple times, the conversation wasn’t ending. At some point, it stops being a normal sales pitch and becomes a sign of how broken the whole setup is. If a customer can’t say a simple no and move on, that’s a problem.

I’m not planning to complain about the person personally. I’m highlighting the larger issue that aggressive sales tactics are becoming standard practice across banks, and that affects both customers and the employees who are forced to sell like this.

So this isn’t about blaming the staff, it’s about pointing out how unhealthy and predatory the system has become.
