Ever since i upgraded to broadband from 56k, our phoneline has been breathing a sigh of relief. But in my opinion 56k was a gods send because it stopped all the annoying phonecalls getting through.
I was wondering how many of you reading this keep getting phone calls, which seem dead at first but then someone picks up on the other end. Usually it's about health insurance, mobile phones or other such rubbish, and on a bad day we get at least 6 of these calls which i'm personally finding a nuisance. I would like to leave the phone off the hook, but my grandad just came out of hospital and he uses the phone if he needs help with anything.
Is there anything that I can personally do to stop this ? Is there a complaints comission somewhere that handles problems with marketing companies cold calling customers ?
Sorry this is rather random thread guys, but since joining this forum i find your feedback and comments very helpful.
