Nuisance Phone Calls

[Country Joe 1,411]

why doesn't someone put up the phone numbers of Company Directors, of the worst culprits, and then we can all phone them, at different times of the day, and see how they like it.

Jesus Moxy, I would be wanting to bust the cnuts door down shortly followed by his face, that is bang out of order.

 

Sometimes I feel these folk are just trying to do a job and earn money, better than scrounging benefits every week, even though I agree it can be annoying, with the TPS it needs updating, I do mine once a year, they clear all data and the new start date means anyone who has got the number cannot call it after that date, unless you fill out anything online afterwards and put your number, I rarely get calls doing it this way

I had a German guy scream at me once, which was highly hillarious then I informed him he'd arranged the call

Had one ring up a few weeks ago trying to sell me something, when I said no thanks he said " well thanks for f**k all" and put the phone down.

That's bang out of order moxy, when the coppers/company have finished stick his number up and see how he likes it.

We are ex directory and still get plenty of nuisance calls, i start with "how did you get this number, its ex directory" and they hang up straight away, but you still got bothered for nothing

 

The junk mail you can do something about, if its got a business reply envelope in it, i just send them back empty, if everybody did it it would cost them money for no return, keep binning them and they just keep sending more hoping you'll buy, just a thought?

I am ex directory but still get them , have just added a call blocker on my talk talk .. its a bit of a faf though you basically block the last number that called you .. it costs nothing to activate the service .. so time will tell as i only sorted it out last week

 

If i don't have the phone number stored in my handset then it gets blocked if they call several times after a quick google search of the number .. in reality folks shouldn't have to do this kind of thing .. but the amount of calls i get some days drives me round the bend

My grandparents get loads of these calls trying to sell them allsorts, paving, washing machine insurance, etc etc. Load of bollocks. Luckily they're savvy but even being on the TPS doesn't stop it.

 

b*****ds.
