But, if you have an answerphone, don't the spammers register that as an "answered call" anyway, and keep on tormenting you politely offering their wares?
TICTH mobile phones - or, to be precise, people who talk loudly and lengthily on their phones in their back gardens while one wants to enjoy the sunshine.
I wonder if anyone has ever had the idea of keeping their phone on a table in the hall, with a wired connection?
TICTH one particular silly eBay seller - spoiler alert: I got a full refund from eBay within 10 minutes of my complaint, which certainly shows it was very much justified!
So, in mid-June I order a big bunch of crisps from several eBay shops - most work well and I receive the goods without further ado. However, there is one seller, with very rudimentary English in their communication, who just doesn't deliver! I ask for tracking numbers, which he never provided to start with; finally, he gave me three tracking numbers, as apparently he had to send the order in three batches, but the tracking numbers turn out to be not valid! The guy only replies to me queries after several days, and then claims that the parcels were returned to them coz' 'too big'. Riiiight.
I finally get enough of this, complain to eBay, seller still giving incomplete answers to what I ask; luckily, as this was an official complaint to eBay and to which he never properly replied, I get a prompt refund. Reason: seller never provided correct tracking number.
End of? Nope. I write a scathing review on the seller's website, and a few hours later, the guy writes to me on eBay, saying (in approximative English) they were very sorry, that they had now sent the items in 4 (!) different parcels, and that he is asking me to 'kindly pay' upon reception! Hear hear!
Bad luck. Case closed by eBay and by myself. And I do not have to pay for items I did not require.
TICTH my own clumsiness. Miss Molly (my youngest cat) got very much underfoot today and I tripped over her. She is convinced that I did it on purpose and refuses to speak to me.
Aroha sits with her tail straight out behind her instead of wrapped around her like all sensible cats. I always feel guilty when I tread on it and the YOWL is so loud I feel quite shaken afterwards.
