My number is on the do-not-call list. So if they do call, I have a surefire way to get rid of them. I ask them for the exact name of the business that is calling and the business's street address and phone number. If they ask why, I tell them I need that information for the FCC complaint form. For some reason, after I ask for that information, they no longer seem to want to keep me on the phone to try to sell me stuff. Instead, they suddenly become panicked and desperate to get off the phone absolutely as soon as possible. - Logan
