    OP, you should have invited him in. You'd have saved on your heating bills.

    Companies dont give a rats *rse about customers

    They openly ignore peoples requests to leave them alone via cold calling either via phone or by the door.

    Nobody wants a crappy sign to tell them to naff off, but IF that whats it takes for a bit of peace and quite so be it unfortunately you get inept retards who think the sign doesn't apply to them or the unable to read and that means many English people not being racialist here

    The only way is to be rude unless you want to listen to the "I have not come to sell you anything" spiel then 20 minutes later the hard sell.

    The other way is banning cold calling and fining companies who flout the law. Now I am all in favour of fines but this time the fines apply to directors pay not levied on other customers. Hopefully the fine can then put a few bobbies on the beat or a few nurses

    That must be the statement I read, perhaps we should put a sign on the back door too, it would be interesting to see their faces when they realise we're one step ahead of them!
