Fed up with calls from pensions helpline, endowment mis-selling, etc?
Want to be polite but also want them to bugger off?
Understand they are just trying to earn a living but that that is not your problem?
Or are you missing calls from me because you think your caller ID identifies them (when many of us channel our calls through similar pathways)?
Then try my new method.
Pick up the ringing phone and say "Hello".
They will soon tell you who they are.
Just keep saying hello as though you can't hear them.
Continue for as long as you find it fun to enjoy their bewilderment.
Say hello once more and hang up.
Job done.
