    Yes. They are so annoying. You tell them you are not interested and they call back the next day. And some of them are reading from a script which is so funny. That whole don't call list doesn't even work sometimes. There is like no rest with them, they work like 24/7 (no some work til like 11 o'clock in the night and then a new batch comes in). Wouldn't it be nice if we could get some sort of telephone restraining order on those telemarketers if they continue to call you.

    When they call I tell them that I only take business calls during regular business hours and not on holidays. So since this is not a personal call (since they are no friend of mine), they should consider this day and every day after that my holiday.

    This country radio station I listen to had some telemarketers call. They put them on air and pretended to be wannabe rap stars. It was freakin hilarious. Imagine someone REAL country talking like they're from the ghetto and interrupting the telemarketer every time he started to say something. LOL!

    Yeah, I hate them calling me, but I am on the "no call list" and now I hardly ever get those calls anymore. You should consider getting on the list. I'm sure you could find the phone number on the Internet. If I still had it, I'd give it too you, but I've misplaced it after a few years. Sorry.... and hope the calls can stop for you and your family. God bless. ☼

    I hate them so much and the sad thing is I was one like 6 years ago! and I got the point on how people are so rude to hang up or say stop calling me and take me off the call list!

    Since I started screening my calls I've spoken to a telemarketer.

    I cannot stand telemarketers... I am no longer nice anymore because niceness gets your house called at 7a.m. every morning for a year~

    Just tell them to take you off of their list and legally they have to~

    I don't get any on my cell. But I had a job as one for 6 days. It's the only job I've ever been fired from. They said I was very nice & professional, but couldn't sell anything. lol

    I was relieved, I hated that job, but at the time it was all I had.

    Yes I had one call at 8:01 this morning. Asking for someone I don't know. This is the second time so I had to get ignorant.

    yeah, when we realize they are telemarketers, we say stupid stuff, like pretend we're in a big fight or screamin' at our kids, or talk in a pretend language, or ask if they sent our blow up doll yet, or is this for our order of ak47's.... just stupid stuff like that.... now i put myself on the do not call list and don't seem to get as many

    telemarketers suck ass. We recently moved into a home that already had telephone service.. and we had to ask our landlord to disconnect it cuz we'd get not just other peoples' bill collectors calling us, but the craziest telemarketers.. omg.. they suck
