1306412 2012-10-13 05:52:00 I like how they are patronising even when they are lieing roght to you. Next time at the end of a 20 minuit call say you have a mac.

I was actually using a mac with virtual xp running on a second screen, was fun saying that there is no start button on the keyboard.
I think I must have had them going for 30-40 mins.

1306414 2012-10-13 10:55:00 Im just annoyed that I did not record the call nedkelly (9059)
1306415 2012-10-14 04:12:00 I would be too.
It's annoying that I never seem to remember to do things like that till AFTER the opportunity has passed.

1306416 2012-10-18 01:14:00 Well that was a disappointment and close LOL

Just got a Call from a Indian sounding guy claiming to be from Microsoft -- Sweet - all set to have some fun.:banana

Then wouldn't you know it, IT WAS from Microsoft Marketing calling about Windows 8 & Office 2013 & servers -- He identified himself along with some details about my business / Me that only Microsoft would know, and the Microsoft Suppliers in NZ.


Spoil all my fun :( LOL

1306419 2012-10-18 06:08:00 I got a cold call yesterday from a guy who identified himself as "XX from Powerwatch" (I forget his name). I told him (not unpleasantly) that "I don't take cold calls". He replied "How do you know what I want to talk to you about?". I just repeated that I don't take cold calls, which is my usual mantra to stop them getting involved with their script and further wasting my time.The ones that bug me pretend to running a survey (eg about Council spending and your rates), and before you know it they are trying to send you information about investments?!

1306420 2012-10-20 03:51:00 I just got one of these phone calls! (First one I have been able to answer!, dad normally answers them), the sad thing is I was if I was not so busy today :annoyed: I would had fun with them!, but instead, I just said “I don't have a computer” and hug up on them! :( stu161204 (123)
