Poxy people phoning at 3 am. 01536 414242 - feel free to call this number and yell at them

This is so fcuking rude, I hate it when it happens. I got so peed off with cold calling companies I blocked my line from them ?

Hope you sleep well ?

Thanks PE. I'm wide awake now. Bastards ?

Could really do without this as I have a full day ahead of me tomorrow. So I need to go back to sleep, only now I'm awake I doubt I will. As I've been up an hour already there is little chance. Bastards.

I know it's a cold calling company as they did the same yesterday, only at 6 am. And then on and off during the day. Bastards. Persistent bastards at that.

Google isn't giving me a whole lot of information on them other than the fact they're an agency. If I could get through they'd regret it!

It's a Kettering number which is only 20 minutes up the road. Shall I go and tell them to stop calling you, or would you rather I just punched them in the nose?

I feel your pain, they used to call us at all times of the day and night and when the phone rings at 3am you think somethings wrong with a family member then when you answer its a fecking telesales call thing ?

? hope you manage to get some sleep ?

Please take Chicken with you so you can punch them, and he can kick the crap out of them.

Thank you!

Nope, couldn't go back to sleep.

And now everyone is up .. Mr P, and the cats (we put them to bed at night in the utility room)

Anyone tried that number? Does anyone answer? All I get is engaged.

Its just ringing and ringing and ringing (yes I have tried a few times ?)

Aww bless you PE.

This is the 2nd cold-calling company to do this to us (read ME as Mr P doesn't wake up!)

The first one was a London number, and that went on for weeks. But they seem to have stopped, but this one has taken over.

It's pointless. They ring, but when I pick up the line is dead. And then when I try to call back to give them a piece of my mind, the line is engaged.

I've registered our UK numbers (internet phones, Vonage and Pacatel) with the TPS service, but it's not kicked in yet. Besides, I don't know if it will work anyway, but worth trying. Just to get an undisturbed night's sleep!

One thing having to deal with my husband's snoring and fidgeting. Quite another dealing with these bastards. I didn't marry them!

I agree they are a right PITA ? Fingers crossed that they stop soon.

Just a thought........... how about telling your family that if they need to contact you urgently when they know you'll be in bed, to ring your mobile and then take your landline off the hook before you go to bed ?

Family aren't a problem. They don't ring at stupid hours. It's the damned cold-calling companies who don't take note of the 'please call after 1 pm' in the adverts.

That's what I mean. Obviously your family know not to contact you between X and X because of the time difference. If they did need to contact you in an emergency - because that is the only time they would call between X and X - then ask them to use your mobile number. That way you can take your phone off the hook safe in the knowledge that should your family need to contact you, they can still get you. At least you will be able to get some decent shut eye. ?
