Thread Name: BS: How to whizz off Telemarketers
Subject: RE: BS: How to whizz off Telemarketers
I AM the target and someone chose to persecute me.

I don't want calls, I am on the TPS register and the only calls I get now are from companies I do business with. They get the message as many times as it takes for them to realise all they had to do was consult the register. I already told them, and by implication that I would take my business elsewhere if they called.

I also make it a condition of any purchase via the web that I don't want junk calls, mail, e-mail etc, and by selling to me they agree to my conditions. They still ignore me. But not for long.

I have several times been waiting for calls from people who have a pending death in the family and I don't want my time diluted or blocked.


THATS WHY!


My mobile gets infrequent messages from marketeers - they do try all the numbers. In many cases to see if the number is valid or reap the dividend from responses. One never knows if it is cynical business or trawling for criminal usage. Or both. The network say it can't be stopped. Oh yea? On pay as you go they don't give a shit what happens to you - I cost them money because of there lack of due diligence.
