A telemarketer calls you. You answer "Hold on, I'll connect you..." and press this button on your phone. Then the call will be forwarded to the *previous* telemarketer which called you. Next time the mentioned telemarketer will get the call forwarded and so on.
This should keep *two* telemarketers busy
figuring who's selling what to whom.
Your phone (through using this button) keeps track of which number was the previous telesales call.

Costs $ to forward, where I live. |

How do you get the number of the last telemarketer? I hear that they're usually blocked. |

I like this. Make it a party-line service, so you don't have to happen to have two telemarketers call one house at once. |

[half] You'd say "can you hold while I grab a pen?", then forward them to the telemarketer party line where they are connected to another telemarketer sent there from someone else. |

Worth (a little) $ to do this I should think. Especially if they give up and leave me alone!! Croissant! |

Forward to a company with a voice mail jail. Or simply play a recording directing the junk solicitor to call a number. ? |
|
| |
Why is there not (or is there) an app which makes
the appropriate "uh huh..... yep..... really?.... hang
on
a second while I get a pen... yes, I'm still here..."
noises to keep telemarketers occupied? |
