Fortunately my state has a NO CALL list that companies have to adhere to. It has cut the dinnertime calls to nill. Very nice. What is amazing to me is that EVERYONE hates getting these calls yet companies continue to utilize that sales method. Who in the world is listening to the speel then actually buying?

 

i was listenign then i tried to sell them a pencil...End Side 1 Flip Tape...He just didn't want to buy it

 

When they call just tell them that you are a business. Like make up the name of a company like when they ask to speak with John Doe, say...so and so indutries how may I help you? They are forced to disposition the call under a business and they wont call back.

 

Thats all 2 year olds are good for.
TM: Hello, would you like to buy this?
ME: erm..... Im a minor, let me get you an adult
TM: sure thing!
2 year old: hewoo?
TM: Uh.. yes sir, would you like to sign up for our low introductory rate credit card?
2 year old: *some undiscernable dialog that sounds like somone trying to imitate a foreign language*
TM: Uh Hmmmm....... Can I speak to an adult?
2 year old: NOOO!!! mean mean mean! you stink! stinky diaper! *some very fast almost english words that arent quite understandable*
CLICK*

 

I work graveyard shifts so I'm usually not in a good mood when they wake me up. However I do enjoy answering them then setting the phone down, and let them listen to silence

 

You can say that again.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/img] That is one good thing about a dial up connection, I just connect when I get home from work and disconnect when I wake up.

 

One thing I sometimes do is when I answer the phone and no answer after a couple hello's I get in a sorta high pitched tone and say h-H-Hello M-Min-n-nesot-t-ta M-M-M-ment-t-talll Ins-st-t-t-****-tution... they usually either hang up or say they have the wrong number [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] it works though, unless I burst out laughing sometimes [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
