Next time they call just tell them to hold on a sec put the phone down and go about your day....thats what I do.....:D
You can also ask them for their home # so you can call them about this later.....:D

Can you block the number? Otherwise you could always just burn down their building.....:eek::D J/K buddy but if blocking the number is an option I would try that and then just leave them on hold till they hang up. That last option works really well because they get it after a few times and will usally leave you alone...

I don't have a land line anymore but I miss getting telephone solicitors.
I like to ask them what they're wearing. ;) It's like phone sex but free. :)

By law, if you tell them to delete your number from their list, they’re obligated to do so. If after that they call back, you tell them you’re going to take them to court, and the calls stop shortly there after.

Honestly, I'm looking forward to my subscription expiring. I usually skim it and throw in on the stack.

Anyone want a couple of years of back subscriptions? You pay shipping...:p

Just start spaming Kal :D
LOL, no doubt. Usually they'll send me a billion things in the mail but this is the first magazine to constantly harass us on the phone. It's like I owe them money.

I don't mind Stereophile too much. It's a little to pretentious for me, but I find some of the articles interesting. However this latest telemarketer crap sealed the deal for me on not renewing.

Tell them to put you on the "Do Not Call" list.

Or, ask for that person's number and if they ask why, tell them that you can't talk at that time but you'd love to call them when it's more convenient.

I figure for $11 a year, Stereophile is pretty cheap entertainment. The big problem is that they are dying from too high of ad costs that are needed to keep the physical publication going.

The Absolute Sound is already going that direction. They just re-did their website, and launched Playback magazine. It's their way of learning the electronic ropes before they switch over IMHO.

Look for both to be electronic-only by 2011.

I agree! I dont see even newspapers survining without going green!! Just think how many trees this could save by just posting online:D The downside to this is more jobs lost. Mine included:mad: I use alot of paper products in my job. Our company is really trying to go green right now. anyway that all i have to say about that
