Since we're a business, the "Do not call" registry doesn't help us.
So... since we can't seem to make them go away, can you help us have some fun with this? We're trying to come up with something that might drive them away while allowing us to get our laughs for the day.
Your new speech; "Oh, hi, I've been waiting for your call! I just knew if I waited long enough, I would hear from you again. I have missed you! Could you call everyday so I can just listen to your voice? Then say nothing........................................... .....................Thank you that's all I can take for one day. Please remember to call tomorrow!" Click.
Use the same speech everyday. They will get the hint. DO NOT ANSWER any questions they ask. That is what makes your number a good one to repeat! You are engaging them. Don't. Good luck.
