Here is the Solution...

It's really very irritating when someone calls you any time and want to you buy his/her bank's credit card or take loan or insurance any damn thing.

Here are few solutions you can use for those irritating callers...

1 After the telemarketer finishes speaking, ask her to marry you.(Always worked for me [:P])

2 Tell the telemarketer you are busy at the moment, and ask him/her, if he/she will give you his/her home phone number so you can call him/her back. (I use this when there is lady with beautiful voice [;)])

3 Ask them to repeat everything they say, several times.( I use this mostly when there is guy on caller's end)

4 Tell them it is dinnertime, BUT ask if they would please hold. Put them on your speaker phone while you continue to eat at your leisure. Smack your food loudly and continue with your dinner conversation. (I never tried this but it sounds good idea)

5 Tell them that all business goes through your agent, and hand the phone to your five year old child. (My uncle used to do this [:D])

6 Tell them you are hard of hearing and that they need to speak up.... Louder... Louder... Louder! (Jor se Bolo Jai Mata Di)

7 If they start out with, "How are you today?", say "I'm so glad you asked, because no one these days seems to care, and I have all these problems.... ........." (I read this somewhere)

8 Tell them to speak very slowly because you want to write every word down. (Funny .. isnt it?)

9 Cry out in surprise, "Helen, is that you? I've been hoping you'd call! How is the family?" When they insist they are not Helen, tell them to stop joking. This works especially well if the telemarketer is really MALE. (Someone suggested me in chatroom)

10 Tell the ICICI call centre guy to call on your office number - and give him the HSBC call centre number. (Now this is freaking hilarious [R O F L])
