When I get a message like that I tell them to  hold on while I get my dad. I then keep them on the line by telling them he is on his way.Like to steal as much of their time as they steal of mine.

Dave,Don't waste your money on a cell phone if you think it'll stop these calls.  I get just as many of these stupid calls on my cell as I do on my land line.  I have a feeling that many of these companies just blind-dial all the numbers (i.e. 0000-9999) in any given prefix they know is associated with a given city, regardless of if it's related to a land line or cell.

I live in BC & "Lisa" calls EVERY DAY on my UNLISTED phone number!!!!Once, out of curiosity, I pressed 9 and asked the "representative" to STOP calling this number.Guess what???? They keep calling and I wish there was a way to make them stop.

I'm in Ottawa. It was an automated message saying "this is Lisa calling about your credit card. There is no problem, it's just to notify you that your credit card company has now qualified you for a lower interest rate as low as 6%. Press 9 to be connected to a representative." there was no mention of which company which screamed scam so I hung up. I tried calling the number back to see if it was blocked for incoming calls or if it would connect to a company. Turns out that identical automated message qualifying people for the lower rate is also on the incoming line. It went directly to the automated message with still no acknowledgment of any company.

Some nonesence call center saying they could lower our credit card interest rate. When my wife pressed '1' to tell them to REMOVE us from our their call list, they answered - first by coughing (LOL) and then when asked to remove us from their list, they simply hung up.
