I do this, works a treat. I have another really loud one one of my dog barking, that works a treat too! My mate uses his baby crying, it's the worst of all of them.

I tell them I am moving to New Zealand in a few days. It stops them in their tracks every time.

Brilliant. Good old Red Green.

I like to tell them I'm saying mass. Can I call you back? They usually just hang up!

Guest: Tuntenut (537 days ago)

That will absolutely work! I've worked for telemarketing and I can assure you that if someone yelps and rips their headset off it's because they got a fax on the line.

Pick up the phone and tell them that you're really busy but if they'll give you their home number you'll call them back. When they try to talk they're way out of it, say 'Why not, don't you like random people calling you at home? Me neither'. Slam phone down.

Latest comment: "I usually just pick up the phone and if there is that 1 to 2 second pause that always occurs, the next step i take is to slam the speaker of the phone down against the nearest surface 2 or 3 times. it doesn't stop them but it sure is fun! "
