is everyone else getting sick of this also?

And I thought 695-1181 was bad...

I'm getting 2-3 of these pre-recorded calls at home each week and they ask you to press 1 if you want to talk to to a car warranty specialist, some guy in Calcutta, India with a heavy accent named "Bobby"

I have been pressing 1 and waiting for them to get online and just messing with them, like asking them what kind of underwear they are wearing, but I have a new way of getting back.

A friend suggested this and I can't wait for my next victim to call

my plan is to get them on the phone and talk really low so they put their ear really close and then.... BLAST them!!

They don't bug me on the phone (I got on that nationwide "no-call" list a while back), but they send me those warranty things in the mail almost daily. I should write them back and let them know that both of my vehicles were made in Tennessee and I don't require any extra warranties. :D:D

For those of you that are getting these things in the mail, do what I do.

Those are POSTAGE PAID envelopes that they send to you in the offers. I just take a shoe box, or something about that size and fill it with dirt, foam peanuts, rocks, broken things around the house, stuff I want to get rid of, etc. Seal the thing up well, and tape the envelope to the outside and DON'T put a return address on it.

If everybody would start doing this, they might get the message. And that my friends is a definite maybe!

Later Folks,
