Ok i know there are plenty of rants on here about crap love film service, but I just had to share this gem with you all.
I was walking through our local shopping centre trying to avoid the charity muggers and whatnot, when the lovefilm sales chappy jumps out at me and says something about signing up to lovefilm. No thanks sez I, I've had two emails already off your lot this morning, straight into my junk file, i wasn't interested then and I'm not now, so excuse me.
The chap stands there in my way, and looks me straight in the face and says 'we're just going to keep hassling you until you sign up!'
i was gobsmacked! aggressive sales tactics is one think but he was just way out of order. I was lost for words, so just walked off fuming!

Whereabouts was this? I get hassled by the LoveFilm guy every time I go through our shopping centre, eventually signed up just to shut him up and then cancelled it the week after. Now he leaves me alone as he can remember me and thinks I'm already a member. Next time just say you already have it and keep going.D'you know, in 900 years of space and time, I've never met anyone who wasn't importantTaste The Rainbow :heartsmil0

I too was hassled by a lovefilm guy. Unfortunatly I was weak and I caved in just to shut the tool up.
But now I love er lovefilm so can't complain too muchFuture Mrs Gerard Butler

Get the drift, just keep giving salesperson ludicrous names/addresses, they'll soon get tired of harassing you.If you are querying your Council Tax band would you please state whether you are in England, Scotland or Wales0 -
I would have flattened the spotty mouldoon if he did in front of me.0

Alternatively you could say (preferably in loud voice when other people are around) "I'M ALREADY A MEMBER AND THE LAST 2 FILMS YOU SENT WERE F***ING CR*P"If you are querying your Council Tax band would you please state whether you are in England, Scotland or Wales0

Which is exactly why I wear headphones. It's easier to avoid people when they realise you can't hear their waffle!0
