We have been receiving more and more nuisance telephone calls recently. We are on the telephone preference list but it does not seem to make any difference.
The best, or worst was a few days ago. A foreign sounding lady

called about 7.30pm and asked to speak to a Miss Anne S..... I said there was no one here by that name then she said that she was not selling anything - I said good as I did not want to buy anything - she said she needed five minutes of my time - I said I did not have five minutes to spare - she ignored me and said that she needed me to answer a few questions on a home survey that she was carrying out - I politely said I dont do surveys on the phone and said good bye and put my phone down.
Five minutes later she rang again, and I said the same thing. And put the phone down.
Ten minutes later she rang again, my OH answered and he said the same thing.
The next day she rang again, I was cooking at the time - about 7pm and said I was not going to answer her questions and put the phone down.
She rang back

and I told her to take my name off her database, she shouted back No

so I put the phone down again.
She rang back

I told her where to go in no uncertain terms. and put the phone down. (No I did not swear)
She rang back

my OH called here a brave woman - so I told here I was not answering her questions and she was making me ill and not to ring me again as I would not answer the phone. So far she has not rung again. Though between phone calls there have been several missed International calls which are probably her.
I don't understand why we are getting so many phone calls considering the TPS. They are driving me mad.
The thing is I have two people who call me and their phone number shows international. So I have to answer the phone to make sure it is not them.
Okay second rant over, I think I need a coffee.....
