People's Lottery sales calls?

ChilliP2012

Just got one myself, but I always use a mobile number that I don't really use, so no biggy.

and another one here, same as you Chilli, I used a seldom used number. I even asked (after telling her I wasn't interested) if I'd won the ipad, she found that funny, I wonder why

I got a similar call after entering a competition to win an ipad. Apparently they were exclusively offering 100 people who had entered the opportunity to be in some kind of lottery syndicate. The saleswoman was polite but really persistent. She wouldn't take no for an answer, just kept asking the question a different way! In the end I had to politely say thanks but no thanks and goodbye and actually hang up on her. They must have taken the hint then because they haven't rung back! It is frustrating when you get that call and hope you've won a prize but it probably didn't exist and was just an excuse for them to get your details for a sales call!

I had a call from these too, I use a skype number for comps, and it's really easy to block callers, so I've just blocked the number.

I got a call from the last week. I just politely, be firmly, said no thanks. Haven't heard any more from them.

I have had a couple of calls from them.

Last week, a very pleasant man rang and asked if I was interested in subscribing and I said "No". He asked if he could ask why I didn't want to and my reponse was "Well you have to pay! I have won some fantastic prizes without paying out a penny, so why would I want to pay?!". He agreed that was a very good reason and said "and long may that continue!"

So there is a good way to get rid of them!
