Oh I cant stand them Telemarketers or scam calls it got to the stage where I actually had to change my number so Bad

I know exactly what you are saying,l had them calling a while back and it stopped and now they are back again, l also asked to be taken off the list it hasn’t worked yet!

its like telemarketers have meetings about what time of the day is best to call people and annoy them mine always happen when we sit down to eat dinner.

If you have a Samsung mobile you can put that in the reject list under phone settings . I do that all the time and a lot of them are from interstate and the number comes up before I pick it up . Very handy !

I don’t have my home phone any more as the only people that rang were telesales

I’ve actually taken my phone off the hook, I was getting so sick of them calling at night.

Telemarketers and people that harass you at the shopping centre! So exhausting! Especially when they do not want to take no for answer and follow you past shops! No!

this worked for me….call your home phone provider and get them to block the number

  yep i think that they are so damn annoying. they only want to scam you and if you tell them to take your name off the list, they hang up on you

Love it! That’s getting your own back!

Even though we are on the do not call register, that can’t stop calls from overseas call centres. So annoying! Cooking or serving dinner seems to trigger calls at my place. Can’t tun my home phone off so have it on quietest setting. If I miss a call from family they call my mobile if it’s urgent.

Must be a little confusing for them when they are being spoken to by a toddler

They do call at annoying times!! so rude!

you can register your number with the DO NOT CALL registy, its free and the company gets fined if they keep calling you

Seems that they tend to favour some times as well. Hope they enjoying chatting to your little one

“Do not call register” is the name of the site I think

They will continue, you have to register on line to get these calls stopped i have forgotten what it is called but after 1 month all calls will stop as I got told by a friend who is a police officer. Now no more calls.

I’m sick of the same calls too. I have asked them to take me off their list and then I get a call the next day from them again. I am on the register but it hasn’t made much difference. I just say, no thanks,and hang up.

Try putting your numbers on the do not call register. I think it’s donotcallregister.com or just google it. I did this it takes about 30 days and I haven’t had a call since after the 30 days. It’s free and only takes a few minutes. As I too was at the point of not answering the phone

We only had a landline connected a couple of months ago and the amount of calls we get is insane!! We were getting them the day after the phone was connected before I had even given our number to anyone. Its ridiculous

I’ve done that with my 3 year old. Just hand him the phone and let him jibber jabber. They haven’t called in a while. They were quite persistent and annoying for a while. Or I just pick up the phone and leave it. You could always take a whistle to the phone lol that works a treat too.

  We used to have a whistle next to the phone but I was told that I would get in trouble for using it!
