had very good results with tps here, after 3-4 months virtually no marketing calls.

recently starting getting some foreign call centres ringing though :(  and can't even understand what they are trying to sell!
I find being incredibly rude and offensive, whilst it may not cut down the number, is quite satisfying. As is getting them around to measure my kitchen/windows/conservatory in my false address. Esp when they ring me on the day as they can't find me....

I keep my railway guards whistle by the phone - a good strong blow from it seems to do the trick - ouch!

I have caller display and anonymous reject, I dont answer 0800, 0845 or international numbers. If they get round this by using an ordinary phone number, it goes in the address book with a tag like 'beggars' and doesn't get answered.

And the day they understand I am human, and have repeatedly asked not to be called, registered with TPS, and complained about most of them, then I may consider being nice to these zombies...

ohh, im not nice....just not nasty


in a call centre they have headsets on, so cant even escape a loud noise quicky.

I just say, no thanks, dont call me again, and remove me from your callist.    and hangup

I'm really surprised Jaime, that with your telecomms background, you haven't sorted them once and for all.

Point taken - I'll take your number off my database then but only if you are sure! ;D ;D
