This is a question Complaining

I like writing letters of complaint to companies containing the words "premier league muppetry", if only to give the poor office workers a good laugh on an otherwise dull day. Have you ever complained? Did it work?

i now enjoy getting these types of calls...
...i try to be as massively enthusiastic about the product as i can conjure up, theatrically so. they are initially buoyed by the positivity and i try not to make it sound sarcastic, i use phrases like 'that sounds awesome, tell me more!' and 'unbelievable! how can you do that for so little?'. sometimes i decide that for comedy effect to answer their questions with responses that don't make any sense at all and asking them to repeat what they said 15 times in a row... make a game of it and it doesn't annoy you any more...

or sign up to the telephone preference service and get no calls like this...

.
Actually I don't even have a phone connected to my land line now, I just use my mobile. I don;t even know what my home number is, but then nobody else does, apart from marketers.

The other way to get rid of them is to just say 'No, sorry, not interested. But while you're on, can I tell you about Jesus?'. Doesn't stop them calling back, of course . . .
