Husband used to work with a guy who - lets just say you wouldn't really want to mess with him.

His prefered method of dealing with salesmen/religous types was to invite them in, ask if the wanted tea or coffee, and come back from the kitchen stark naked, sit down and try to start conversation.

Never saw the same guys twice and word soon got round :twisted:

We have consecutive telephone numbers. It's quite interesting when they ring on the second number after having got grief off me on the first one.

I absolutely detest cold calling with a vengence.

I can highly recommend registering with the following organisations :

We did a couple of years back and within a few months, the amount of junk mail and cold phone calls reduced dramatically.

Doesn't stop the door-to-door annoyance, but then we live up a hill, with no streetlighting, half a mile away from a small village in the middle of rural Dorset.....   don't get too many passing callers ;-)

Wanderer:
I'll agree with that Tim. Ours virtually stopped dead about a month later. It's very rare we get bothered any more.
Other than legitimate stuff that I still don't welcome from people like the bank trying to sell me insurance wrapped up as reviewing my account.
