    Telemarketers are idiots.

    I dont get it....

    I just got an recorded automated telemarketer call... with this message

    "Has bad credit kept you from answering your phone, then let us help."

    It doesn't make any sense... =/

        if you get a live rep ask them have they accepted jesus as their lord and personal saviour, then start telling them why corporate greed is against "gods plan" for them. It usually works pretty well.

          Nope...

          but the message doesn't make any sense...

          If bad credit was preventing me from answering the phone, I wouldnt have picked up.

          if I did pick up, then maybe my credit wasnt bad enough to stop me from picking it up.

          They need new writers...

            If you had bad credit you would probably be unemployed and always at home, so you would be able to answer the phone anytime of the day

              I'm sure they meant when the caller ID shows a bill collector. Those po folk understand.

                      I get those messages all the time on my answering machine. The message is for people screening their calls with their answering machine.

                              I made one of my first big hits from telemarketing in my 20's.

                              We used to have our phone guys calling people from morning to about 10PM. Most people hang up, but the ones that don't who will listen to your pitch and be controlled you can sell and we did.
