cold callers
every single day even sunday evenings WTF?
i would have thought they'd given up by now, i can't believe anyone gives them the time of day it's really pissing me off now, some twat who could barely speak english kept rambling on ignoring what i was saying when i asked him "how did u get my ****ing number" kept on talking regardless without answering the question and i shouted "shut the **** up" kept talking then i hung up how do they get our number? and how do these clowns earn a living? |

Best get a silent number and register your number on the 'not to call' list. www.donotcall.gov.au |
Re: cold callers
I pick the phone up, and stick it next to the radio. Which is mostly on a chat station.
Dont even bother talking to them in most cases. I go back to the phone about 15 mins later, they are always gone and never phone back. Stress free reaction from my point of view. |

Re: cold callers
to pass the time and satisfy our sadistic minds as teenagers, my best friend and I used to sign up his dad to all of the magazine and junk mail collateral you could get as he used to get so stressed and frustrated by receiving standard junk mail. Oh the fun we used to have watching him blow a fuse!

Re: cold callers
What I do is say "sorry I am a bit busy at the moment if you give me your home phone number I will call you back" that shuts them up

I use to get alot of ppl cold calling me at my last job,they would ask for the business owner ,so i would say" he's not here atm,but he would be really interested " and give them what they thought was his mobile number, but it was gay chat line...lol...the calls soon stopped.....lol..:rofl: and it probably cost them a fortune ringing a chat line number....lol... |
Re: cold callers
good ideas if they speak english properly but they actually don't seem to understand a word i say and keep on rambling
i'll just keep it on answering machine i think and leave a particular message "if your a cold caller **** off" if it's someone i know they will simply talk so i know it's them:D |
