A young man was having some money problems, and needed $800 to get his car fixed and roadworthy again – but had run out of people to borrow from.

He called his parents via the operator and reversed the charge, saying to his father: “I need to borrow two hundred pounds.”

At the other end, his father said: “Sorry, I can’t hear you, son, I think there may be a bad line.”

The boy shouted: “Eight hundred. I need eight hundred dollars!”

“Sorry, I still can’t hear you clearly,” his father said.

The operator cut in: “Sorry to butt in, but I can hear him perfectly clearly.”

The father said: “Good. Then you send him the money!”
