I hate the telemarketers

[bshee58]

i got the same thing they have been using all zeros in my cell phone. if i don't know your number, then i'm not gonna answer the phone.

Normally with telemarketers I answer "Is this Pizza Hut?" and then tell them I want a large meatlovers pizza and breadsticks. They are the ones that hang up on me and not me hanging up on them...

[griserelizabeth]

I hate telemarketers and scam callers, if I don't recognize the number I don't answer the call. I figure if it's really important they will leave a voice message

[Laurieandjohn]

I have a friend who only answers the phone saying Avon calling can I sell you some  lipsticks she really had me laughing tell me the story

[timvolley]

they only thing is when the numbers are disguised as other numbers so you answer them.

Yes it is the downside to companies that "promise" to not sell your information, but most likely do with some terms loophole... I thought it was funny today because I got a phone call from "-1" and I thought.... They've go so many robot calls now that they ran out of numbers and started using negative numbers...   

You should google that.  I have seen them with a plus in front of them on my ID.  Probably from another country.

I screen my landline calls now and almost every one is from a telemarketer.  And my husband has even started getting them on his cell phone!

[Selinallano]

The only phone calls i get are from telemarketers! them bastards got slick and started texting me!

[yaayme]

Yeah, they're annoying.

My main problem with telemarketers is you tell them you are not interested and they keep talking and then all you can do is hang up on them.  I even had one to tell me he was going to keep calling even though I asked him to take my number off his list.

They are so awful I no longer answer my phone.  I just look at it and if it's a number I don't recognize I don't answer it.  I have an answering machine on my landline home phone so I don't bother to pick it up.  I let the machine get it.  If they are legitamet they will leave a message.  If they ain't, I get less stressed out. 

[Ladylove2210]

Don't never answer they calls they are scams

[madeara]

Yes.  Rachael from cardholder services is most annoying.

[cfsdaniels]

This buggery all comes from above.  Trust me on that one.  Everyone is out to get your dollar, and the urge just trickles down the food chain.

[computermanjd3]

Just get on DO NOT CALL list.
