Today, for the third time this week, a telemarketer called me. Seriously annoyed, I told him in German that I don't speak English, in an attempt to get rid of him. He then started delivering his product pitch in German. FML

See that's why it helps to know an indigenous language.

Why didn't you just hang up instantly like a normal person?

I usually just say, "Sorry, wrong number.." and then hang up.

just do the mature thing and hang up.

Just ask what color under wear they have on

My favorite trick is to ask them to hold the line for a minute and come back ten minutes later. They have usually hung up by then....

The solution is simple. Next time, just say, "take me off your call list." They're obligated to stop calling you if you tell them to remove your name and number from their records.

Haha that's a good one a telemarketer will listen to you

Sometimes when telemarketers call me I pick up the phone, cry about how my life is going no where and wish I just had someone to talk to. They don't call me too much anymore.

That's when you say in another language that you don't speak German either.

ive done the same thing lol i tryed 3 diffrent languages, he knew all 3
