I hope this doesn't offend anyone, but I have a HUGE pet peeve with telemarketers. Years ago, when there didn't seem to be as many telemarketers, occasionally I would get chatting with some and it could be entertaining, but now it is just plain annoying!! Three telemarketers within one hour is a little much, don't you think? In Canada we have this option to apply to a list of people who wish not to be contacted, referred to as the "National Do Not Call" list. It seemed to work the first couple years since is has been in place, but this year has been horrendous for callers!
What do you do when you get a telemarketer calling you?
I'm kinda curious to see what some people might say.

I only use a cell phone so I havent had to deal with telemarketers but in the past I would just shut the call down fast. Those calls are super annoying.

Never answer my phone, there free to call, leave messages, hang up or just keep trying. My sons use to make a game on just how long they could keep them on the line. Not sure what list that puts you on but hey, there were not out stealing hubcaps.

Shells you could do what I do and that's not answer calls you don't know or blocked numbers.
