Fat Tony 0 Posted January 22, 2005 Trying to sell my car and it seems that every car sales/matching service under the sun calls me. I cannot belive the nerve of some of these people the worst so far have been car data. This bloke has called me twice now and was execptionally rude to say the least. Couldnt understand why I didnt want to pay 80 quid for them to sell my car. They really are very push and dont understand when they are told not to call me back. Makes my blood boil. Anyone else had this or even taken these services and had a sucess? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

too hot 0 Posted January 23, 2005 Like the ad on Tv just now .Where the woman says please hold your call is important to us then she plays a kids musical toy down the phone and goes away leaving the caller hanging on for ages.

Henny 0 Posted January 24, 2005 keep a ref's whistle next to the phone... When they phone up and start getting pushy, blow the whistle as loud as you can down the phone at 'em... ;) :twisted: I'll guarantee they'll have hung up by the time you get the phone back to your ear and won't dare to call back again! ;) :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
coolrado 0 Posted January 24, 2005 in the good old days of mechanical exchanges you could have rigged up an amplifier to the phone line and deafened them just waste their time as much as possible, talk really slowly or try and see how many times you can fit a random word into the coneversation as possible like cabbage or albatross, at the end of the day its their phone bill :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I asked him to wait, put the phone on the Kitchen table and have just popped over to write this. I'll go back and check in a couple of minutes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
