Once in a while, when I have time, I actually answer a phone call. I love the once for solar and car warranty. The first one I let them go through their whole spiel, asking all kind of questions. After I kept them on the phone long enough I ask them where they would put the solar. On top of the one that is on my roof? They promptly hang up.
The car warranty I ask them which car. They really do not know, but they usually start of with "your car warranty is about to expire" It can be fascinating the many ways they try to get the info.
This said I hope that they will eventual quit. in some way I feel sorry for the people that call, because I can not imagine how much rejection they have to deal with in a day.
Oh, I love how you manage to keep them on the phone! We have solar also and we get plenty of those offers too. We don't answer the phone and wait for a message. If a message is left, then we call back, if needed. We used to get a lot of offers to purchase our house, but those have thankfully gone away.
Well its always better to laugh than cry. Gosh what a assortment of 'stuff' your being offered but think I will stick with my email provider as my offers are far, far less. Thanks for the update Karen and maybe, one day, there will be a really great offer...
