Earlier this year I approached a financial advisory service. I received their presentation and I followed up by signing with them.
The service was recommended to me by Hn who phoned this afternoon to say that she has received a surprise and that she has me to thank for it. The financial service has sent her a generous picnic hamper filled with goodies in acknowledgement of her referral. I'm not the first person she has referred but this is the first time she has received a lavish gift for doing so.
We had a good laugh over this but I am led to wonder whether the service sees me as a future source of their enrichment.
Given that they have disclosed those trailing commissions to you, the hamper shouldn't be such a surprise to you, should it?
ReplyDeleteNo, I realise they are not running a charity.
