Marketing person: (blah blah blah answer survey for phones blah blah blah)
Me: I'm sorry I don't take marketing surveys.
Marketing person: But can I ask if you have mobile phone?
Me: You can ask. But I won't answer. I don't take marketing surveys.
Marketing person: Oh. Um. -click-

Have you signed up mto the TPS? Don't let them call those sales calls 'market research' or whatever pitifull excuse they're using now....

I had for my old number but this was kind of an experiment to see how long this number got out when I'd not given it to anyone except my mum and the_mendicant. About 2 months, fiends.

They're allowed to pick numbers at random nowadays, it seems; in the good old days they had to get them out of the telephone directory.

Worse, they can ignore the TPS with impunity if they make the calls from India.

Maimstabkill!
