Oh make SURE your Sound is Up! on ya pc and that ya speakers are On!!

Oh UK, I've heard that one! Isn't it priceless?? I LOVE it! I keep getting bombarded with telemarketer calls each night, its sooooo tempting....LOL

Thanks for the chuckle.

Yes its exsteamly tempting....lol



your welcome cold callers drive me around the bend

That was a good one. But I don't think even that would stop telemarketers from calling. I had my home phone disconnected to get rid of them. All I have is cell phones I only give my Number.. to people I know. If any place ask for my Number. I tell them I have no phone. So far I don't get calls from telemarketers. And I have had my cell phone for a year. Nice Huh!

that was sooo funny thanks

That was pretty good.

Nice

I did a thing like that (but less serious and advanced) a month or two ago:

Telemarketer: "Hi, my name is xx from yy. Am I talking to Mr. Z?"
Me: "Do you want to buy a washing machine?"

Telemarketer: "Excuse me?"
Me: "A washing machine. Do you want to buy one?"

Telemarketer: "Erm.. what kind of washing machine is that..then?"
Me: "Actually I'm not too sure what exactly it is.. I think it's an Electrolux, though"

Telemarketer (with a superior voice): "Heh..You've got to know what you are selling, don't you?"
Me: "It's a washing machine.. it.. uh.. washes clothes?"

Telemarketer: "ah.. well.. how much is it then?"
Me: "eight-thousand and fivehundred dollars (*)"

Telemarketer: "That sounds a bit too much for me."
Me: "Ah.. I'll have to ask someone else then.. but thanks for calling!"

Telemarketer: "Okay, bye."
Me: "Bye."

(*) : This is is sweden, so I had to change our currency to something similiar in dollars.


Next time I will ask the person to hold for a bit, and continue with what I was doing (watching TV, reading, computering) and see how long the person will hold.
Bonus points if the person on the other end can't hang up and break the call immediately if I don't hang up as well. He/she will lose precious time bugging other people.

that was priceless. my brother got a call from a guy who asked him if he wanted to update his phone so he said to the guy I dont have a phone I'm talking to you through a tin can with a piece of string atached the guy said oh er sorry to have bothered you and put the phone down
