If you're upset with one phone call, they you are in for a major headache. We never got any calls on our cellphone, but we still have our old number from Maryland. However, as soon as we got our home phone from Century Link we got at least a call everyday for over a month.
Probably at least a dozen were selling water purifiers, that's the biggest caller. They usually don't tell you at the start of the call who they are, in fact they'll lie and actually say they are from Home Depot or Lowe's and want to present you with a Welcome Kit. Then when you say I'm busy, just mail it to me, they'll say we would like to present this in person and give you a free water test while were there. Also popular are free gift cards from Olive Garden and whatever else they might have.
The same thing also happens with the mail. I've been here 8 months and I still get offers every week to attend a free luncheon at Bone Fish, Olive Garden or Arnold Palmer for listening to a presentation selling some sort of investment plan, counseling, etc. I've probably thrown away at least 100 of those offers, a person could eat well if they didn't mind listening to them.
