How to get rid of sales people on the phone!

[what..the?]

How do you do it?

There are various ways.... if we all converse on the subject we could all learn ways to deal with every situation we could ever be put in!

The Water Cooler sales person:

- I say sorry I have been alergic to water since birth.
- I say can I interest YOU in a water warmer on a dial basis of course, no quibble 30 day money back
- sorry I have a phobia of bubbles
- sorry we already have a water cooler it's called the cold water tap
- hello.....hello.....hello.....hello (sigh) bob that crank callers on the line again!
- Hello yes can you help me I'm lost and I dont know where I am!
- Hello yes can I order 2 chicken tikka masla's with rice popadoms and some mango chutney to (give false address) and then hang up.
- well it's kind of brown and spotty and it smells terrible...then hang up.

Please add yours

just keep trying to sell them some old junk you have and keep going until they hang up and if they gave caller display phone them back

also, if you get tired of certain junk mail with a pre paid returns envelope, wrap up something heavy in brown tape and stick the pre paid envelope on the outside and post it at the post office. the recieving company has to pay the postage by weight, they will soon take you of ther list.

Its easy, when they phone you just say "Hold on please I will get someone to talk to you" then just lay the phone down and get on with whatever you were doing. Remember they are paying for the phone bill
