Asterisk Telemarketer Torture – voip-info.org

Posted in November 19th, 2005

Wow, thats a cool concept, it would be slick to set that up on a home phone! Here are some of the menus:

Due to the extremely high volume of calls from everything from telemarketers to Septic System Bacteria vendors, we are asking all such organizations to remove this number from their call list, or as need be, to add this number to their No-Call list, whichever is relevent.

THE CARROT:
We HAVE made some exceptions, and if you wish to see if your organization has been exempted, please listen to and follow the following prompts. Otherwise, please Cease calling this number!

if you represent a charitable organization, please dial 1,
if you represent a political organization, please dial 2.
if you represent a polling company, please dial 3,
if you represent a market research organization, please dial 4.
if you represent a magazine or newsletter, please dial 5.
if you represent a commercial organization, please dial 6.
all others, dial 7.

And it continues, its a real hoot, and I guess some telemarketers actually will follow such a menu. Be sure to read it in its entirity. Makes me wonder if the F100 does the same thing in their customer service menu if you want to complain.
