So a call came in from a company, silent call and the caller then asked to speak to the house holder.

So asked them if they would like to buy double glazing, completely threw the poor girl, was obviously not on the script.

I know they are doing their job and yes was evil, but hell it felt good

Another option may be to tell the coldcaller that no, you are not the householder, youre just visiting but if they'd like to ring you back at home in 30 minutes then you'd be interested.

Then give them a number,like say, oooh your local SS (Social services), mother in law, the local direct CID number, chip shop or whatever. Be imaginative.

so not a silent call ten, a silent call is when no one is free for the call to go through to and the companies are tightly regulated on the number of those they can make
