"That all sounds very interesting but the doorbell just rang, i'll be back in a second" only done it a couple times but managed around 15 minutes before they hung up lol

not said that exactly, however whenever have cold caller I used to enjoy getting to the point of sale then tell them im not interested lol
however right now I just tell them to bugger off & take them off their calling lists!!
Did have 3 mobile call me the other day & I told them I had just upgraded my phone and it wasn't due for another 2 years lol
Always fun to shout "OH SH!T" in a panicked tone a split second before hanging up. Just to see how many call back asking whats the matter lol
As for cold callers I just remind them I'm on the TPS. Most hang up when I keep reminding them they're breaking the law by ringing me :d
TPS? Toilet Presentation Society?
When a i get a cold caller, i let them say there peice then ask them if they need or want any decorating doing.

"This is he, Steven Gerrard"
"THE Steven Gerrard? Who plays for Liverpool FC?"
"No, haha SIKKEE!!"

I did actually tell someone my name was slarty bartsfart for a giggle, they seemed confused lol
I told them I could tell them the answer to the ultimate question, life, and everything..........
Think that the name of the game with cold callers is to see how stunned you can make them, if they just hang up then its a win, however if they hanging saying "What the......" then its an epic win ;)

lol Sorry, i think i have the best one
let them have their say, then ask if its free, when they say no i say "nar, i don't want it then" lol
I ask them about their company, if they know who the owner is, how many work there etc. If I CBA that is. lol
my missus had a cold caller on once & couldn't understand him.. he put his supervisor on & he was just as bad, out of frustration, she yelled 'where the hell are you from???'

lmao adam c
although give it time theyll ring you up again!
We actually get cold callers coming through our emergency 999 system in our Police control room.
coz they show up on our touch screen as 999, we answer them with "police emergency?" there is always a bit of a silence and then a rather sheepish person apologising that their system has somehow gone through to an emergency number. I just say, "oh its ok, but hope you realise that you have just blocked this number so a possible real emergency hasnt been able to get through. lets hope no-one is getting murdered!"
makes me laugh but it is actually true, only so many lines we have free for 999's to come in
dam annoying things!
