You were scolded for not having your record number??? I mean, I guess you
should know it when calling, but I honestly can't remember the last time I was asked for it.
I don't know which phone number that is that you called, but it doesn't look like a 1P number. Stick to the premier exec lines. I've never come across agents that were just outright unpleasant using those.
