Im registered with the Telephone Preference Service
Im registered with the Telephone Preference Service for both my home and mobile numbers. Its very rare I get these calls now. When I do there are a couple of ways of dealing with it. The polite one is just to say I'm registered with teh PTS so no legitimate company would phone me, therefore you must not be legitimate.
The second is to politely and in your best posh voice say "My wife deals with that sort of thing. If you wouldn't mind holding for a minute I'll just pop in the other room and get her" then put the phone down on the side, usually next to the TV so the sound from that covers most other sounds, but do NOT hang up. Then shout in your best chav accent "Oi, you f***ing slag, get your fat f***ing **** in here, theres some c**t on the phone for you." If they havent hung up, every few minutes shout various abuse littered with plenty of expletives, remember the more colourful the better, and every now and then pick up the phone and in your best posh voice (again) say something like "Terribly sorry to keep you waiting she's just coming" and similar.
