    Default Unavailable phone calls

    Ugh, hate that. Don't you? Annonymous or unavailable. Drives me batty. Found this online. If you get one come into your house you can look it up and find out who it is. or you can find out who it is when you answer and fill this in so other people will know too.

    and then there's also

    www.whitepages.com you click on reverse phone and sometimes you can find out who it is.

    If they are unavailable, I just answer to see who they are. If it is a telemarketer I ask to be taken off their list. It ends the calls and I don't have to keep being annoyed by it.

    It can be very annoying, Dh plays games with telemarketers. It can be pretty entertaining some of the things he has said, and most aren't affluent in English either, he has said some outrageous things. Thanks for the info.

    I like "messing with them". Example: We would like to offer you our Gold card! Me: "Really? Is it SOLID GOLD? How much is it worth if I just melt it down and sell the gold? Can I make it into a ring, and still use it as a credit card?"

    I hate those calls! I keep getting an unknown caller from the same company. Of course I answer it to see who it is and tell them to take me off their list, but they keep calling. I am even on the Do Not Call List!! What can I do to stop them from calling? I guess I should stay on the line longer to act like I am interested to get their info and then report them, but when I find out who they are, I simply hang up.

    I dont answer calls that say that. I hate it when they call your cell phone. I mean I am paying per minute for them to call me. I think not.

    I don't have caller ID, so I just let the machine grab them - usually results in a hang-up
