Tired of phone calls for advertising purposes?

November 21, 2017 11:36am CST
How annoying can these types of phone calls be when they are often made? Especially when you refuse the offer extremely clearly and companies continue to call and insist on the same proposal? Oh, God... Why don't companies forget this type of action?

I use TrueCaller, it has helped me block many calls from such companies. They were annoying.

We all hate these annoying telephone calls. The most annoying are the ones in which they want you to answer a questionaire. I have no intention of supplying these people with personal information which they can then sell to other companies who will telephone me.

If it's a live person, I usually tell them at the first opportunity (after I figure out they're trying to "sell me something"), 'TAKE ME OFF YOUR LIST!' But lately I've been getting a lot of 'pre-recorded calls,' that give me the "to learn more, press 1; or to get 'NO MORE NOTIFICATIONS,' press 9." I've 'pressed 9' to a few dozen of these calls! Isn't there some 'international Do Not Call list' that these phone-lines check to make sure I'm not already "off their lists."

The calls show up on our tv and if we are home we either just ignore them or pick it up and hang up. Sometimes my husband will just tell them to take us off the list.

Of course, they are just so bothering. This is why whenever I pick up such kind of call, I will put it into the blacklist and it will never bother me again.

Most of the time if we do not know the caller number we do not answer the call. I have caller ID which shows up on my television so it is easy to avoid answering if we do not know the number.

Actually I am tired of the cable company that I gave up and hated calling and bothering me when they do. I just hang up when I hear who it is. I have nothing to say to them and I have not intention of ever going back to them. I have Netflix and love it very much.
