"How do you Answer those Wrong Caller in the Phone and they keep Insisted"

Well, that's odd! I have had two phone calls on my cell phone asking for Amy. I don't know who Amy is, but I hope she learns to give people the right phone number! People have never argued with me about it being the right number, though. Maybe you're being pranked!

If a wrong caller keeps on calling my phone, the next time I answer it I simply say something like "Loyola Funeral Homes, how may I help you?". It usually creeps out the caller.

Generally I would ask them to repeat the phone number they are calling to be sure they dialed correctly, including the area code. Sometimes I have had calls where the number was right but the area code was wrong. Then if everything is the same, I would tell them that the person they are calling must have changed their number since they talked with them last because I have this number now and don't know who they are looking for.

If that doesn't work, they go on the block caller list if that is available.

Currently I am having this trouble on my cell phone. It is not the same person calling me, but they keep calling for this one person who must have had this number before I did. I just let them know that that person must have changed their service because I have had this number since July....and that usually stops them from calling again.

On my landline phone if they keep calling the wrong number I block them out. I once had an elderly lady that was calling often and I would tell her it was the wrong number she said she was trying to call her daughter and this was her daughter number and she has had it a long time. I asked her what was her daughter's name she gave it to me and thank goodness it was listed in the phone book, I called her daughter and told her that her mother was trying to get in touch with her. She asked for my forgiveness and told me her mother was very old and couldn't see good.

My Cellphone, I don't use it that much so most of the time it rings I don't hear it. And if I don't know the number I don't call it back.

I usually ask them what number they are calling, and then tell them where they have gone wrong. If they persist that they are correct I will usually hang up on them, but I always try to help them first. If they called back on my cell phone I would be really upset because they are costing me minutes, after teh second time I would not pick up any longer.

Just answer them with a short and business-like manners. If they keep on insisting, I usually just cut the conversation. I don't like people who are insisting when I already explained that they have the wrong number.

I had that happen to me. I remember this gentleman called the house once a week calling for someone nickednamed motherdear. The first two times we let the answering machine pick up and hope that he will get the understanding that there was no one by that name since he didn't get a callback. So one day he called and I answered. He asked if the number he called is the number to our house. I told him politely that even though it was the right number, the person he was looking for, do not live here. Sometimes it works out and they understand. And sometimes people have thick skulls and don't get it so I do like you and close the phone on them if they act rude lol.

Hi iyah10! I think that if wouldn't call them back.. I think that I just would keep my phone ringing or rejecting the call until that person stop calling.. until now that worked for me

I usually do as I do for all unwanted calls. I had a series of calls from a caller asking to speak to 'Michael.' I kept explaining that there was nobody my the name of 'Michael' living in my house. The caller once asked me if I was sure and that annoyed me. After that, whenever I got an unwanted call I always asked the caller if they could hold the line for a moment. Then I just place the phone on the table and leave them holding on until they got fed up. Nobody has phone and asked to speak to 'Michael' since I started to do this and neither do I get calls from telesales people.

I don't get them as often but when they do occur it irritates me. One time someone called and ask for someone i did not know and i said they had called the wrong number, they apologized, yet they continued to call the same number continuously and so i decided not to answer, hoping it wasn't someone i knew calling.
