to the people who dont want these calls? i would suggest an answer machine as we leave a message on them then if the consumer wishes to discuss the said message they can if not they can just press delete... i dont answer private numbers on my mobile my attitude is this... if its urgent/important they will leave a message!!! if no message it was prob- someone who i didnt want to speak too, :-)
I have an answer machine and they never ever leave messages, but I know I have had a call because my phone logs 'missed calls'.
When you check who the calls were from it is always number unavailable.

I am never rude, I am polite and to the point( I can tell someone where to go in such sweet terms that they look forward to packing for the trip)........although I have to say that on a couple of occasions I have had a bit of fun at the callers expense....I figured that if they wanted to waste my time, then the least I could do would be to help them waste a bit of their life too.
Nuisance calls are just that.....a nuisance. I have done my best to stop them from having to incur my wrath(polite as it might be)......I wish to goodness that they would get the message.
It would save us all a lot of irritation.
