How are you with people that phone you asking you...

[luke-p]

- To switch to there service
- To answer a question

Etc, I don't get them when I'm at home, but I'm at my nans atm and I just got one and I was like... No she isnt here, so he started asking me quesions :\

I just put the phone down, what do you do?

[Lozzoling]

my mum goes barmy at them

and they never call again

[awelsh]

ring my phone, I tell them"whats your mobile number" theyre like "im sorry I cant tell you that"

Then shout, "WELL WHY THE **** WOULD I HAVE GIVEN YOU MINE TEHN!!!"

[LeftForDead]

I try and sell them things, and say things like hello stockton police:P

[CrazyColaist]

i just tell them to not ring me again.

[VPSwow]

They usually ask for my dad aka Mr..... so i say speaking then say no thanks and hang up before they have chance to say anything else. :D

[luke-p]

I try and sell them things, and say things like hello stockton police:P

Lmao thats the best idea ive heard! :P

[le harry]

I fool around with them.

Usually when I know it's a tele-markerter I go "Hello welcome to Playhouse Adult Superstore, this is Harry speaking - how may I help you". Done it like 4 times with some mates, funny as haha.

[LeftForDead]

Lmao thats the best idea ive heard! :P

Ohhh the best i think was when apple rang me and i said hello microsoft

[womanizer]

I ask them questions..

[Matt,]

I give the phone to my 4 year old bother he loves a good chat with them.. :P

[Energizer]

We hardly ever answer our home phone anymore, but when i do I usually just say I ain't interested then hang up. But a lot of them are rude *******s, they say can I talk to your dad, then i say he's not here so they just hang up :/

[indian8132]

I say things like, if they offer me internet for a tenner a month I say "I pay £90 a month for my internet, and I think anyone who pays less are cheapskates" and he was like "I dont think so, 'mam"

They always say hello madam IT IS SO ANNOYING! Its cause my voice isint low enough yet, im like "I AM NOT A WOMAN IM A MAN BUT MY BALLS AINT DROPPED YET!" and they kinda giggle and say sorry. But yea, sometimes funny but other times (like during dinner) it is annoying.

[beth]

i go "i'm under 18, so by law you can't quiz me or ask for money" and they are like "okay, thank you madam." and hang up c;

[lAdmire]

My mom normally answers them, or if they call and I answer, I give the phone to her but I just tell them to hold on and I pass the phone to my mom. She tries to be nice to them but sometimes, she just goes off. They ask some personal questions like it's any of their business. Gosh.

[Technologic]

I got a call from NTL going "We've recently noticed that you switched from NTL to AOL. Please tell us why"

So i went into a **** and was like

"YOU ****ING STALKING ME YOU LITTLE PERVERTED FREAKS. HOW IN HELLS NAME DO YOU KNOW THAT? TELL ME NOW"

The guy put me onto the manager :l

So i threatened to sue them lol and they offered us free internet..

[DiscoPat]

lol, I always give them 100% sarcasm, its like.. What they gona do..?

[shiver]

hand the phone over to parents ;)

[dirrty]

i just give the phone to my mum.

& grandma is bare rude to them. and when she got ppl coming to the door, she opened it and then said no thank u then closed it right back in their faces. im was like omgg

[.Nickie]

I usually just sit there on the phone and start yawning and makin random comments like 'boring' 'boverd?'
they usually put the phone down tho :(

[Shawnstra]

Usually they go asking for my parents, so I go:


Who are you?
How are you related to them?etc. till they hang up.

[Metric.]

LOL@THIS, I either **** with them, or I tell them that my parents are spit and my mom left us and we don't know where she is!

[Jazza]

I usually just say that we're on a fixed term contract and unable to switch for 12 months then that company won't call again for over a year.

[MangoJ]

I've used soundboards off of ebaumsworld. It's so funny to see how long they'll go until they realise what's happening.

[Jordie]

i hang up on them:)

[Zuar]

if its people offering to buy a phone i just chat crap for about ages about the phone and then go "im just going to ask my mum" "oh wait shes just bought me a new one soz" *hang up*

and if its some person about gas I go i have heard u blow up buildings and ur a bomber they put the phone down?

[kooldude23]

I know it's not the best think to say but I normally say that the person in question has died. They never call back again. Apart from the '3' mobile company, we got at least three phone calls a day for two weeks. We werent to happy with them. This one time, I was on the phone to the guy for like 20 minutes of him telling me crap about this phone and that I could get it free, with 6 months free line rental. He started asking for my address and stuff so I gave him a fake one. The very last question he asked me after 20 minutes of him going on and on about this phone was "How old are you?". When I said I was only 17 you should have heard how annoyed he was. Good times...

[deltateamaplha]

First of all these calls are not all bad. I work in Market Research for Tesco. When we are calling it it can be short or long surveys vairying from Make-up to Alcohol. Right now I'm doing a survey about Tescos advertisment. It can be harsh somtimes when people hang up. But I'm getting paid £5.60 an hour for it so it's no loss to me. Somtimes I actually enjoy my work some of the surveys are intresting. So don't always hang up on us, just hang up on them dodge sales people thats the way to go ;] actualy no don't! haha just remeber my 3 months at a place called Space kitchens! just be nice and polite. Sure its nasty of these people to call you up but there only doing there job AYE.
xxxx

[:Liam]

when you get questions like how is your phone service you can answer saying "well it keeps cutting out every so often like this" then hang up. I normally get angry with them, but they dont take me seriously as I have a high voice lmao.

[Kenneth]

I say that my mom is not available can I take a message and they go hmmm we will call back.

[Virgin Mary]

They've never rang us, but if they did I'd just go "sorry not interested".

[Foobar]

Like kooldude does, I tell them that that certain person has been dead.

Sometimes I also act drunk to creep them out :)
