Do you answer them?
I always do out of curiosity, but recently its been unwanted calls.
I answer my phone all the time. If its a telemarketer i love to play around with them :(
Yes. Let them speak first though, unless I can't be arsed with waiting.
YES Blinger, great idea! I'm gonna do that next time. +rep
Yeah i always do that with sales people, make them go on for ages and then act interested, or speak funny.
Yeah I'll answer it anyway, always curious to know who it is. I never get them though tbh.
I love doing it! I'll be like "yeah, we have the internet" and they start questioning me about it and i'll go "oh, hold on.. its uhh... 28KB/PS... whatever that means!" and they go "wow, thats slow, we have really fast internet blahblahblah"..Quote:

Yeah, it's always my mum calling from work.
I'd pick it up but won't greet the caller, I'd wait till whoever is on the other line introduces themselves, if there's silence for 5 seconds I'd hangup.
During the day at home, when the landline phone rings I pick it up and don't say anything, because most of the time it's sales people, school or my nan. I dont want to make that sound like i hate my nan but she goes mental over the phone roaring "WHY THE HELL AREN'T YOU IN COLLEGE, Arron!?"
Erm i answer them depending what they want wether i stay on the phone though! If it's someone I don't want to talk to i just say i'm busy just now :L
nah I don't, but I don't really get them that much.
Not really, I'm usually scared in case it's the bank or insurance or something weird that I don't wanna talk to.
Yeah It's normally people prank calling me.
I never get sales people with witheld numbers, always pranks,.
I know it's always my Mum's mate so I answer it ye.
If it's on my mobile then I answer it due to being my work but for house calls I don't bother. We are ex directory anyway so we don't get a lot of calls majority of the time :)
i never get prank calls :( i wish i did!
yep, normally prank calls but i just play along and they get annoyed and hang up
but it's always "is your refrigerator running?" "yeah" "well be careful coz it might run away ahhahahah" It gets boring.Quote:
