extended warranty spam calls.

[bigmike20vt]

has anyone else been getting an insane amount of these?

I don't think it is a scam. it may be from the company I had to register some of our appliences with to get a free extended warranty which has now expired and they want me to pay.

for about 6 months I am getting hounded Inc messages.on answerphone
I tried being polite.
eventually I got firmer.bordering on rude asking to remove my number
I tried blocking but they have multiple.numbers.
I never admit I am who they say I am and I have tried saying wrong number/no longer at this address.

so as a last ditch effort I have done something which may have worked.

when they phone I say one moment please I am not allowed to deal with this let me get someone who can help you someone will BRB, and then just leave the phone and see how long they wait.

I heard shouting down the phone for for wasting their time once (can they not see the hypocrisy?)

but after a few weeks of that the calls seem to have dried up

block the number?

like i said i have tried doing that but it seems they use a slightly different number each time.... but that being said..... my way seems to have worked as well and if it wastes their time for up to 5 mins waiting then that is 5 mins they are not spamming someone else so i am happy enough with that at this point.
