Hanging On

‘WE know BT aren’t great, but they’re better than Romtelcom, Romania’s state phone company.

They have just got round to answering Gheorghe Titianu – 28 years after he asked them to install a phone.

And then it was to say that there was still no phone line available.

Instead, the company suggested that Mr Titianu, from the northern town of Suceava, fill out another form enclosed with the letter.

‘I’m honoured that the company has not forgotten me after all this time,’ said the patient customer.

Meanwhile, Romtelecom said that far from being a mistake, the letter was ‘nothing out of the ordinary’.’
