Telemarketing Calls

[Shanny]

Has anyone else been receiving tons of these calls lately? I got 6 of them yesterday. And I have already got 2 today, generally I am pretty polite when I say Im' not interested but I'm just getting bloody mad now. I don't know what's going on iwth them.

[Intangible]

That is why I pay $2 per month to be unlisted. No calls for me.

[adigirl]

Yes. Loads!!! I don't answer the calls.

[Trollic]

sound really interested and tell them you are going to get you rcrerdit card put the phone down and don't pick it up again, see how long it takes for them to clue in you are not coming back

One day hubby and I were feeling goofy and I got a call so i just kept telling them about pizza and how much i wanted a pepparoni with extra cheese pizza. It was hilarious... finally the guy just hung up on me.

I just quit answering my phone, i figure if its important they'll leave a msg.

Me too, but I got a call the other day and the call display was 000-000-0000, I wonder if they think that will get people to answer.

I use Skype-Out to make long distance calls. The call is routed through California and bounced back...the number comes up as 000-000-0000 or 012-345-6789.
