buster gonads 862 Posted October 4, 2013 Report Share Posted October 4, 2013 Depends what they are ringing you for Moxy but if its anything to do with the house, like new kitchen, loft lagging etc i always tell them to contact the landlord even though its my own house, the phone goes down dam sharpish and no call backs. By the way i work for my self [gas fitter] and used to divert my calls to my mobile during the day but cant anymore because half the calls are from johnny foreigner and i get charged, b*****ds, atb, buster.

moxy 617 Posted October 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2013 £4 a month to stop crap phone calls I don't want in the first place. Talk about money for old rope We get all the automated ppi calls. Accident claims and Indian call centres. I wouldn't mind but I only have the bloody phone inbecause of the broadband. I very rarely gets used. If the tps or of com come up trumps then I think it's time to unplug the thing. On a lighter note. I have had the forementiined shites on hold listening to the radio for around half hour this morning. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

When they call "hello mr smith" he listens away and cracking and then says "oh hang on its my brother you need to speak to about this" Come back on the phone as brother blah blah same voice everything then says "oh no its dad that sorts all this stuff mate" Old dad comes on same voice they normally hang up once hey twig he is taking the piss I always tell them hang on I have left a tap running and put the phone on the side.
