    Completely Asinine Carrier Trick

    So, Medical Mutual of Ohio sent me a new Broker Agreement form (essentially the contract that allows me to sell their products and receive a commission for doing so). Very standard, very simple, no big deal.

    Except:

    The form is 13 pages long, and only 3 of them require any input (name and contact info, signature). So, I print off and complete those 3 pages, scan them back in (and could somebody explain the rocket surgery in emailing an electronic form which then needs to be printed out, then scanned back in?) and hit the send button.

    Easy peasy lemon squeazy.

    Or so I thought.

    This morning, I'm greeted with this:
    Good Morning
    Our legal department requires at all  13 pages are returned .

    I have attached a new blank document for your use

    Please complete
    Page 1 – List your name  
    Page 11 – your contact information
    Page 13 – Sign and print your name and added your NPN Number

    Return all  13 pages please

    Thank you
    Um, Einstein's? Those were the three pages I sent you; the rest is boilerplate. But I'm now supposed to print out 10 more pages of your idiotic verbiage? How bad is it when I'm complaining about killing trees?

    Sheesh.
