A telemarketer (indian) rang me tonight and offered me a free mobile phone if I changed services. I started asking her questions about the phone and wouldn't let her get a word in......then SHE hung up on ME ! Bloody hide of the woman

LOL,I told one I had a business and would need six phones....next thing I was talking to the "manager".

Strung it out for 20 mins asking about plans and tried to beat them down for a better price etc.

The guy kept trying to close the deal,but I just asked more and more questions.

In the end I told them I'd think about it.

Redneck b =*^stards, picking on the workers. My wife and I particularly like the ones that offer a "free" weeks vacation at a beach resort in outer mongolia, I think thats what they said. Haven't been there yet because of family situations but are really looking forward to it. The bit about the canoe leg of the journey is a worry because I get seasick in the shower but, we'll see.

My wife was told by her work mate that used to be with telstra, that if you just put the phone down and don't hang up it ties up their lines and they get hit with a big bill

I had one ring me back and say that I was "VERY RUDE"

Another just rang back and said "F... YOU"

I dont know??

I sometimes get woken up by them when I'm asleep from night shift. I'm not very polite when that happens.

Bakes you should have asked the Indian how the hunting is in India.

I just shut them down straight away.
"Cant talk, I am on fire standby." Then I hang up.

I did that to one Indian speaking woman three times one day! The fourth time I managed to pick the words 'firearms registry' out of the garbled intro!

I'll have to try that next time John.

in the U.S. you can have you phone put on a national "DO NOT CALL" list, which i have done. it cuts way down on the bulls**t. occassionaly when some moron calls anyway, i immediately tell them i am on the list and ask for their name and the company name as they are subject to a large fine for breaking the law. you would be amazed how quick they hang up!!!
