How Do You Handle Telemarkers

Hello there, I am an outbound telemarketer from AT&T, You know we have the capability to put/tag you to a Do Not Call costumer, Just talk sincerely to the agent who's is calling you, getting along with them then request for Do not Call and we'll be oblige to do so. By the way as a call center agent, i only make calls in the office from 8am t0 5pm Mondays to Fridays

I let my answering machine handle all calls. I don't intend to sit and argue with these people on the phone. We just recently refinanced our home to get a lower rate of interest. There is a company that comes up on my caller I.D. that is a mortgage company and they call us faithfully multi times per day. Other financial services call constantly as well. Some company has harassed us for months about a class directory for my high school. I've looked up several of these numbers online and find out that people have been called several times a day by these people and some have had that high school or college directory sent to them at a cost of $99 even after they said no. That is why I do not answer these calls. My husband and I counted the telemarketer calls the other day and it totaled 14 calls. That is ridiculous. This does not count the fund raising calls. Right now the economy in our city and in our family is horrid. I only donate to the local mission and Salvation Army by my choice. Even though many others are worthwhile causes, I do not have the money to help everyone. I really dislike saying no to a good cause, so I just don't answer. Solves my problem because I don't have to justify to them why I can't donate and I don't have to listen to them telling me that I can easily afford $15 per month.

i have registered my mobile no. in dnd service(do not disturb) and now i can see that they don't call me any more.

I normally say that what ever you are selling that i have no money to buy and then if they carry on i say bye and then put the phone down.
