Pest callers

I used to get nuisance phone calls almost on a daily basis, but they have got less of late, but now as well as the spam e-mails from the UK, I am being bombarded with e-mails from the U.S.

I can't unsubscribe them fast enough.

I've  given  up  trying  to  "unsubscribe"  now  Ivor,  I  just  empty  them  into  the  Great  WWW recycle  bin  !!

Trouble is when they are from the US and other non EU countries there are no controls. So when you unsubscribe they know they have got a live email address and sell that info on.

I live in a cold calling avoidance area that the Council has set up.  It works.  Not had anyone call for the last couple of years

Write your comments here...so do I but we still get the odd cold callers . I tell them forcefully that it's a no cold calling area and see them on their way. All done politely of course.

Its bad enough these days with these cold callers and fund raisers but last night at approx 7.30pm just as we were settleing down to watch the telly there,s a knock on the front door and standing there in the dark is a woman from the RSPCA. "Good evening sir sorry to bother you but have you got time for a chat" i said "do you realise what time it is and no its not convenient to have a chat" she says "Oh well if its any better i can come back in an hour " i dont know about others but if your going to knock on my door at that time you had better have a dam good reason.

Are these people for real.

I live on the site of an historic battle that was part of the fight to obtain the freedoms of worship currently enjoyed by all persons in this country.  I know quite a lot about the subject and can talk the hind legs off a donkey about it. The few witnesses that do try the door bell despite the sign usually make an excuse and leave before I'm a quarter way through the story.

I am told that with witnesses - if you claim to be a Pagan - you will be safe too.    I just keep the dogs handy for any cold callers.

Unfortunately 'unsubscribing' is likely to lead to even more email 'junk'.  It tells them that your email address is still live and that someone at the end of it is responding.  Don't do anything to these unwanted emails apart from send them straight into Junk and then delete them asap.  Then delete everything in your Deleted User box.

Well,  I  just  wave  my  Light  Sabre  at  'em  !!

We stuck some "No callers of leaflets" on the front door and that has had a very good effect, but it seems not to work at election times!!

We one had a family of jehover witness's who took it in turns to come knocking, one day.The farther to come for his turn sand I answered the door with a open shot gun in my hand as I had been cleaning it at the time. He or his family never called again.
