Phone spam.
 
Having been in possession of my new phone for less than a month I received the first spam call today.
On reflection I should not have answered given that the display showed 'No Caller ID' but I did, only to hear a recorded spiel inviting me to make a claim for miss sold Payment Protection Insurance which I don't have.
No doubt my number is now listed as a 'live prospect' so I can expect more of the damned things.
As my number is known only to a very few of my highly select social circle - stop laughing you lot - and not to any commercial interests, I assume that the originators of this telephonic pestilence just work their way through blocks of numbers hoping for a bite.

New penalties were announced yesterday to punish purveyors of this nuisance and while the TV reporter was concluding her piece on the subject, her own phone rang alerting her to a spam call. What else?

your service provider probably sold the number :rolleyes: oh wait, you live somewhere with consumer protection....

The asshole behind me in line for the ferry has her brights on and her seat reclined to sleep. Asshole.

Carruthers 03-01-2015 01:00 AM

A great many of these calls originate outside the UK even if the underlying operation is based here.
Under the circumstances, it has always been difficult to pursue the offending parties.
Whether the new regulatory framework will make it easier to impose realistic penalties remains to be seen.

I think I know the answer.

I'm pretty sure we both know, Carruthers. ;)

That's what power side mirrors are for. Aim them right back at her, if she's been asleep/eyes resting, she'll think you've blinded her.

After three years bitching and whining about getting up way before the sparrows have even thought of farting to drive her ladyship to early morning practice for swimming and polo ....today's first early of the season actually made me late for work.

(And on Thursday, beest will have to do it because I will have left for work 90 minutes earlier. :lol:)

My jeans don't fit anymore...too big, plus my belt is too big. Not buying any new clothes between now and surgery so...a good problem to have. Just the wrong time to find out...right before a trip.

fargon 03-18-2015 08:39 PM

Congratulations, now go cut a new hole in the belt.

elSicomoro 03-18-2015 08:47 PM

Already did that...still too big...and a PITA. At this point, with it almost being summer and having nothing formal coming up, I think I'll survive with sweats and shorts until surgery in June.

fargon 03-19-2015 07:24 AM

That works for me.

Aliantha 03-22-2015 05:43 PM

The kids. I think my period must be due. I have no patience what so ever. Haha
