Re: Telephone Marketing Calls????

I say 'hello' and if they don't speak straight away I put the phone down. If they do speak I just say 'no thanks' and put the phone down.....

I am a bit ruder than that, I groan 'Oh god, go away' and put the phone down.

Re: Telephone Marketing Calls????

I let them waffle on without saying a word and when they've finished, I just say "I'm not interested, thank you" - and put the phone down.

Re: Telephone Marketing Calls????

Since we instituted the Do Not Call Registry quite a few years back I, thank God, never get them any more! I used to just interrupt, say: Sorry, not interested" and hang up.

If there only were a Do Not Spam Registry....
