The best thing to do is have a laugh with them, if they say you have been selected for a free phone say thats great send it over to me, and do all the talking dont let them get a word in edge ways lol

Or if they are selling a cheaper phone say no I have it cheaper, but would you like some broadband? Double glazing?

lol just play them at their own game!

I can't be nice to somebody who is willing to rip you off to get paid more money, no matter what way you look at it.. they are trying to rip you off. Why would they be calling everyone and anyone up to give something away for so cheap,etc. Most of the employers are brainwashed anyway and think they are actually going to feature the persons house for free sofas, etc.

The people calling are not ripping you of, like me they are reading from a script and dialing the numbers they are given in a list for £7 an hour lol

Extremley hard work, and you have to meet targets of your out! Sounds like easy money but your going to be abused left right and centre!

You are meant to adapt the script, work on it, change your behavour and tone for diffrent people etc.

In that silent p[ause at the begining of the phone call i generally hang up, im X directory too but i dont get many calls from them.

Telling them family members have died is a common escape route i think.

If i can be arsed or if iv been drinking i tend to stay on the line and be an arse to them. Taking 20 sec pauses before i answer any questions. Or answering the previous question, like that game!

So if a bank robber robbed a bank, when caught said.. oh no its ok, its what the script said. He is inocent?

thats how I look at it, they know they are "helping" you into getting ripped off and its fueled by money (you get more money via "bites" right?)
