Last night I had pizza. I almost had a lot of pizza too, but in the end I didn't. What happened:

I was at a friends place and I called the 131 number for Pizza Hut. They answered but it turns out I was put in to a Sydney branch, not a Canberran branch. The girl apologised and tried to get me a number for the nearest pizza hut to me.

I said it was okay, I can find the number myself and I hung up. Instead, I then called Domino's pizza, who I then placed an order with. Because I was at a friends place, we expected them to call back to confirm the order since I had asked it to be delivered to my home not his.

They did and Rob answered the phone. He murmured something about a Supreme. I thought this strange and asked him, he said "You ordered a surpreme or something didn't you?" To which I replied "No, Meat lovers." So I called Domino's back up to double confirm my order. I left Rob's place and headed home...

Not long after I got home, my Pizza from Domino's arrived. I paid the man and sat down to eat, irc and watch the olympics. Not five minutes later, Pizza Hut arrived at my door with a pizza!

Now, I had not placed an order with these people. I had not even told them what I wanted. My only conclusion was that Rob had "confirmed" a Supreme for me with Pizza Hut, not Domino's. I told the man I had not ordered a pizza and to push the point, I said the phone number on the docket was not mine (which it wasn't, it was Rob's). I was not going to pay. I didn't even ask what the pizza was.

The ordeal was not over though. This is the truely scary part: My mobile phone rang!. I had not given my mobile phone number to these people and I had not called them on it. So one can only assume that Pizza Hut has developed a large database of names, addresses and phone numbers without my express concent.
