I have a great solution for this....if you have an
answering machine. Record the out of service tones ( the do da de sounds)
at the beginning of your message, continue with your message. This tone can be
found on the Internet. Be sure to tell your family and friends, they'll
think you don't pay your bills. When these annoying telemarketer computers
connect with your machine they detect an out of service number, your number is
removed as a not in service number. They don't want to waste time
calling numbers that are not in service. This telemartketer avoidance
measure was suggested in Poplar Electronics. It works with telemarketers
that use computers to dial.....if its a real person you just have to be
rude. I think it has helped. I resent having to pay the $10 to
be on the "no call list". The telemarketer should have to pay $10 to
call!!!!
