Guest LucaAltieri Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Get them all the time. You get used to it. "Congratul..." *hang up* Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Get them all the time. You get used to it. "Congratul..." *hang up* A 1st for me, being ex directory for 18 years helps i suppose. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashley17 Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 They ring us on our ex directory line all the time, not a lot you can do when it's recordings like the florida one but if it's someone asking if you'd like a kitchen they panic when you ask how they got the number and hang up.

BlueStar Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Got it at 8:30am this morning, hung up before the word "Congratuations" was finished. There's another one I've had before which goes "Hello... Hello?" to try and keep you on the line but the acting is really piss poor so it never works.
