I am constantly getting phone solicitations from MCI, AOL, blah blah blah… I hate being called at home and asked to buy something. I am constantly asking to be removed. It never really happens.

Don’t you hate this? I find this far more intrusive then SPAM.

What do you think?

The FTC is in the process of instituting a national "No call list". We already have one in GA and it's great. For $5 a line they send your phone number to legitimate telemarketing groups.

However, with caller ID and an answering machine, I haven't dealt with a telemarketer in 15+ years. B)

We have a no call list here in Missouri that seems to work pretty well, from what I'm told....

I handle it with caller id and an answering machine...

If they show up as "unavailable" on the caller id, I dont answer... If they show a phone number and a company name, I often will answer and screw with them....

I pay for an unlisted number, I am on the Indiana no-call list, and I screen my calls. I never talk to telemarketers at home and I hang up on them at the office. Not that big of a deal.

I'm wondering how many people actually talk to those people? Then I start thinking... how many people are lonely and at home. The reason home shopping network is so popular.

I've had 4 calls so far today. Next one I'm going to really fuck with them. I love Serge's tip. If I scream and yell at them they probably add my name to 30 more call list, right? lol

I need a nap. I'm zapped.

I always like to give them one weaqk objection. They usually sieze this as an opportunity to go into their script.

As soon as they start, I set the phone down and go back to what I was doing. Periodically, I check back to see if they are still talking. :redance:

it depends what you scream...
;-)
scream like you are giving birth and need their immediater attention,
get them involved in your "child birth", ask for advice, ask them to help you breath,
etc, etcv, etc...
;-))

another technique I heard of is..
repeat EVERYTHING thye say with reatrded voice...
and giggle

please report how it all went and you have my permission to give them my phone number and tell that I am VERY interested in their product..
I LOVE telemarketers
;-)))

How about I just forward my number to you and you can screen my calls? lol- On second thought... maybe not. lol

I did get a call about 15 minutes ago. I especially hate weekend AM calls. She says "Good Morning! How are you doing today?" lol

I went into this whole fucking thing.... "I'm having a really bad day... my mother is in the hospital with terminal cancer, my 8 month old son broke his arm last night and this morning I wake up to find an eviction notice on my door and I have no money to move. Now what can I do for you today?

“Oh I’m so sorry. Maybe I’ll call back at a better time.” Click

hahahahahahahahahahaha it was fun.

I keep getting telemarketers that call my business phone line that is hooked up to forward my all my phonsex calls from interclimax...

So I'll be right in the middle of a cam show and those telemarketer fuckers call and I have phone sex with them. It happens all the time. Oh they piss me off!

I'm going to keep trying something different. I was thinking my next one I'll act like I'm a real looney tune that happen to pick up the phone.

"The sky is falling. It is...I heard this on TV and you better watch out because Mickey Mouse is hanging out with Binladen. It's a conspiracy against amercians....don't cheese but milk does the body good... do you drink milk?"

lollololo- hahahahahaha

You made my day Serge. Thanks.
