Telesales

Reason for annoyance:

"Do I need a reason, come on... telesales are infuriating."

by Lindy Pate

About Telesales:

They always ring just as you are sitting down to eat your dinner and then you get that long pause when you pick up and you just know it is a call centre in Delhi or somewhere similar.

They talk to you like they are your long lost, best friend and say their name is something ridiculous like Fred, when you know damn well by the accent it won't be Fred at all. I am afraid they don't get much past, "Hello my name is Fred" before I put the phone down.

You may also find Common Cold and Talk Talk irritating.

Wouldn't be so bad if they didn't all act like robots.
Why is it that you have to resort to telling them to piss off, when you've told em NO, NO,NO,NO NO!!!!!?

It's so simple! Get a special mobile number, linked to your own mobile and you get paid 2p per minute for Telesales (or anyone else for that matter) to call you! Suddenly these irritating telesales calls become a lot more interesting! This message was brought to you by Natter2.com !!
