1219431 2011-07-27 01:51:00 "Hello Mr X. I am John from Forrester Research. Your CEO (names our CEO) suggested I call you in regards to a survey he said you'd be happy to complete."

Me: "Hello John. Please hold the line and I will call our CEO and check with him. (click). Hello John? John?"

hahaha

1219433 2011-07-27 04:46:00 It is far more fun giving the exact opposite answer to the question, just to throw there survey out. mikebartnz (21)
1219434 2011-07-27 05:01:00 I think it was a marketing call, I get 3-4 a week saying it's a survey, but it's not it's just companies trying to sell my client more services etc... FAB (6923)

1219436 2011-07-27 23:44:00 I have been at home either cooking my tea or eating it and some person rings wanting to survey me. I think that perhaps the best idea is not to encourage them and tell them to go away. Bobh (5192)
1219437 2011-07-28 00:27:00 Tell them you have a pot boiling on the stove that you have to turn down - can they hold? Then just don't pick up the phone again - go back to watching TV. johcar (6283)
1219438 2011-07-28 01:07:00 If every one just gave them incorrect answers their surveys would be so useless that they would have to give up. mikebartnz (21)
1219439 2011-07-28 01:09:00 FAB - how did he know the name of your CEO? That's creepy! catspyjamas (15614)
1219440 2011-07-28 02:52:00 I have caller display on my phone and don't answer any suspicious looking numbers. Have had a few lately with just 4 digits.
