Before entering the District Lane platform at Ealing Broadway station at 4.30pm on Monday
4th December 2006 I was surprised to be confronted by an AXA healthcare sales person.
It seems incredibly inappropiate to sell healthcare on a station platform where someone is going to be in a hurry and liable to make a rushed decision with vulnerable people in particular at risk.

Correct me if I am wrong but most people entering underground stations at this time are liable to be in a bit of a hurry. This would explain why an AXA salesperson is at the station
as it would give the company sales person a chance to pick up people making hurried decisions. Correct me if I am wrong again but it would seem wise to make a measured and considered decision concerning your health and station areas are not the best place for such decisions. Particurlarly at risk are those vulnerable which include both those with mental health problems and those with physical health problems. If patients can be at risk from alternative practitioners they can certainly also be rushed into making decisions that they may regret later. I advise complaining to AXA healthcare and station managers concerned.

Indeed - but does that really help them?

Also they look well dodgy and unprofessional (not saying they are, but just how they look). Even worse than the ones in mobile phone shops. If they are selling serious financial products they really need to upgrade their sales force from spotty 17 year olds in crap suits to someone who looks a bit more like they know something about what they are selling.
Generally people should refuse to sign up to anything in the street like that, like you say the only reason they do it is because they know people won't have time to read the small print. The products must be shit because none of those type of sellers will give you any product information to take away and read in your own time. If the stuff was so great they'd be falling over themselves to hand out leaflets or whatever.
