Speaking of āthoseā delightful peopleā¦.I live in Canada and we average 5 or 6 calls a week from American sellers. Since the Americans have that ādo not callā list theyāre phoning us now. You tell them NO, they call back the next night and give the same spiel. Now we just lift the receiver an inch and hang up when we see the callās from a State where we donāt know anyone.
I still get some of āthoseā calls even though Iām on the Do Not Call List. What I do when I see one coming thru (via my Caller Id) is to turn on my Auto-Answer Fax (same line used for my land line phone). It may take several calls for them to think that itās a fax line before ātheyā take me off their list.
If it wasnāt for my occasional use of the fax machine & keeping a land line for emergency calls (911) Iād have it disconnected. My friends call me on my cell phone - thankfully telemarketing callers arenāt allowed to use them (yet).

I have one of those last names too - really quite useful when it comes to telemarketers!
