How do I get rid of persistant cold callers?

I am registered with TPS, I have anonymous caller reject on my phone and I have lodged a complaint with my phone company. Yet still these automated call centre cold callers persist. Any ideas with what else I can do to stop this menance?



Answers:

Not sure of the details on this but I was told that a lot of calls come from someone getting access to your email address book. They then call the first number. If you put the name AAAAAAAAAA in your book it will always be the first in the book and that%26#39;s all they can call. Sorry I%26#39;m short on details but maybe you can ask about that one and get the details filled in. Another favorite of mine is a kids whistle kept near the phone and blow it right into the phone on these calls. They likely won%26#39;t call back. They%26#39;ll be too busy trying to get their ears to stop ringing. Should work good on prank calls too. Good luck. just hang up..thats what i do. bloody cheek though isnt it..i understand why you get angry..i do too!! caller id? if i dont recognise the number i let my answer machine take the call then if it is someone who i know they can leave a message and i can call them straight back. good luck xxxx phone your telephone company and put a block on all with held numbers for starters.



then if you get any more annoying calls you will be able to get their number and pester them back .,. i did it and it worked for me. Tell your phone company you want them to take action,otherwise you will change providers they will soon sort it,you could unplug it until its done. http://www.compfused.com/directlink/4906...
