    Default Fyi


    Cell phone numbers went public in Sept. and were released to telemarketers and soon you may start receiving sales calls. To prevent this , call this number from your cell phone 888-382-1222. This is the NATIONAL DO NOT CALL REGISTRY CALL LIST. It blocks your number for 5 years. You must be calling from the number you want BLOCKED.. I have already done mine and my wifes phones since I have had 3 calls today alone.

    Default I knid like it when they call.

    I have a whistle at my desk and ask them a question in a real low voice where they ahve to ask again. That way I KNOW their listening real good and then blow that whistle in their ear. They're never on the phone when I ask if they heard that. LOL

    Default Works REAL GOOD

    What I like is when someone calls and wants to sell you an extended warrenty on something. I had one call about my fridge one time. They kept on and on after I told them I didn't want it so I Really got them. Told them Why in the
    He double L would I want a warrenty when I was a multi millionaire and if I wanted a new fridge, I'd open my wallet and go buy one. I got a uhhhhh, uuuhhhhh, Sorry for bothering you sir and they hung up

    It pays to keep important information. You can then back up what you say.

    You should do this. Do home phone too.



    Thanks,

    Cell Numbers Go Public Tomorrow REMINDER....all cell phone numbers are
    being released to telemarketing companies tomorrow and you will start to receive sale calls.....AND YOU WILL BE CHARGED FOR THESE CALLS

    To prevent this, call the following number from your cell phone:
    888-382-1222.

    It is the National DO NOT CALL list. It will only take a minute of your
    time. It blocks your number for five (5) years. You MUST CALL from the
    cell phone you want to have blocked. You CANNOT call from a different
    phone number.
