Win an e-bike worth £799.99 from E-Bikes Direct!Fantastic! What a wonderful opportunity. I have been looking to give up my car and this would enable me to still have my independence and I would not have concerns about the local exorbitant parking charges or fuel/tax costs.ViewDate:

Are you plagued by nuisance calls and what is your strategy for dealing with them?mickstrefford said On a serious note though.... I am a little more sympathetic towards UK based call centres. After all - jobs these days are hard to come by and for some it is their only source of income. I know they are only doing their job so I am more polite when I inform them that I subscribe to the TPS and would they kindly remove my number from their database. It is best not to try and string them along as they have their targets to meet and are penalised if they do not meet them. As for overseas calls (you can usually distinguish between UK and Overseas) and recorded/no response - just hang up.
My son did this, waited until they got near to the end and started screaming 'No, what have you doen, it's all gone, all my work, my livlihood, alll gone, nooooo!'. Funnily enough they rang off. :-)
