Awesome
Heard a similar story (may have been on here in a back qotw) where the cold caller phones up, clearly Indian and introduces himself as Dave Spencer. He has a whole booklet to get through and the guy just lets him, each time saying, "I'm sorry, I don't need double glazing, I have no windows because I'm blind" or "I don't need car insurance...etc".

At the end, the cold caller says, "I'm sorry, but you aren't really blind, are you?"

Guy responds with, "Well, you're not really called Dave Spencer".

I just tell them the previous owner is dead and there's now a Mr P. Stringfellow living here who's had the house all done up. The number of calls I now get for a Mr Stringfellow is brilliant! :)

"I'm sorry, Mr Stringfellow's not in just now, I'm his housekeeper. I'll let him know you phoned!" :D

Not a bad idea
how long will it take them to stop calling though?
