Cheers for that, counting down the 28 days now! Stupid automated messages winding me up big time, hopefully this will stop them.
 
I keep getting PPI calls on my mobile and now they seem to have got my business number its automated so I cant seem to get them to stop calling me everyday !!!

Recon a competitor is sticking me up.....come on own up !

I think you have to listen to the whole message for it to stop, goes on for a while though. most hang up half way through so it calls back.
 
haha this has reminded me of a call from a lady, it went something like:

"hello is that the electrician?"
"yes, speaking"
"are you the fat one"
"well i could probably do with losing a few pounds but............!"
"or the other one?"

I reminded her of the name of the lads she was looking for - they're well known locally and tbh one of them is a hefty bloke!

I also said she'd be ok to call for anything in the future, and she went on her merry way!
 
had a few calls for the Mrs ( its her name on contract) when I say shes not available they start telling me how they can help me out of my debt I then go off on one telling them Im going home to batter the living daylights out my money grabbing squandering cheating wife
Had one threaten to call the police on me before i got home I told him there is no way Id hit my wife BUT he should realise that by asking for my wife then "advising me" about debt makes me think she has got me into debt( she hasnt ) I then ask for manager and explain what iv said to the wee guy who is in shock by this time Manager takes note of my concerens ( so he says ) My mother use to work for social work department and that sort of thing DOES regretably happen

Another one was when " terry" called from some company and my mother answered he started waffling "Hi there Im Terry from XXXXXXX " ( hes from the indian continent obviously ) So Mum starts asking "Terry is that the name your mother gave you ?" next she starts " would your mother be proud of you that you dont think the name given by her and your father is good enough for you to use I think thats terrible disrespect of your parents " She has done this several times all the same sort of result Terry hanging up nearly in tears
 
When I was a little younger and used to live with Friends, we used to pass the phone around so we could all have a go :)
 
I had one last month asking for the owner (me) to sell something
I said he died yesterday!
I offer to give a forwarding address - I then give the cemetry address.

Some are so thick to realise I am taking the piisss
 
I try to wind them up if I can, one of my best (well I think so) was when I had a call offering me some sort of deal on a phone, I said sorry but I do not have a phone....
You would think at this stage they would have realised that they had phoned me,
going off script just throws them completely..
