I need to rant for a sec ahem

SOME FUCKER HAS SOLD OUR HOME PHONE NUMBER!!!!!!

We moved beginning of 2015 and pretty much if the phone rang it was a call for us. Since then there has been the occasional cold-caller but not regularly, not been a big deal which was a huge relief

BECAUSE

at the old house I swear to you the phone rang pretty much every hour of the fucking day with a cold-caller. We are on the telephone preference list – we shouldn’t be getting unsolicited calls – bah like any company actually pays attention that grrrrrr!

Cue today and the reason for the rant. I’ve had 4 calls today! 4! I had 2 yesterday. THIS. IS. NOT. FUNNY.

Seriously very pissed off right now. It must be a recent thing so who the hell has got our number recently and sold it on. If I find out I swear … well I’ll do nothing because I’m a huge coward but ahhhhhh *screams*

#I hate the phone at the best of times damn thing always makes me jump and that’s before I have to do talking#I wish I could just disconnect the phone but what if somebody actually needs to call#stupid thing#very not happy right now

I’ve considered canceling my home phone to avoid this… the US Do Not Call registry doesn’t protect us from the foreign folks… maybe that’s a problem for you too. My phone company called (maybe or it was spam) left me a message asking me to pay more to ditch the foreign spam callers, I have done nothing… but thankfully, not answering the phone has actually helped the problem. I check messages, but they stop calling after a while if you don’t answer.

Awww thank you so much for your empathy. Thankfully I haven’t had anymore calls since my rant so I’ve calmed down a bit. Unfortunately my mother uses the phone for work so not answering or cancelling isn’t an option :/ now if I lived on my own then definitely! I hate talking on the phone anyway.
