Can't agree more. My favourite recent example was when I had to change bank due to my existing bank pulling out of the country. Somewhere along the way, I provided feedback or made a complaint to the new bank (companies don't advertise options for "constructive feedback"). Some time later I received a cold call reporting to be from the bank and asked me to authenticate who I was. I refused on the basis that my feedback had been because of this exact scenario. They eventually wrote to me to explain their couldn't pursue the matter because I refused to engage via cold calls in which I couldn't authenticate the caller. There are solutions to these problems but they aren't used very often. :/
