321-781-9999

Rachel is apparently in Florida now. That's what the caller ID said when she called. And what a surprise to hear from her again since she always says it will be the last notice to get such a wonderful rate.

If you haven't looked at the other posts about telemarketers, you may not be aware of how often she calls. It always sounds urgent, that's because she says that it's urgent. Credit Card???? Final Notice???? Whaaaaaaaaaaaatttt? (Just check out some of the other phone numbers in Labels.)

Rachel keeps moving to different phone numbers. But she is always up to her old tricks. Don't buy into it. If it was a good deal, she wouldn't keep calling after claiming it was the final notice.

Here's an idea. I don't know if it works or not, but when Rachel is done talking, stay on the line. Wait until the operator talks about "If you want to make a call, hang up and try again. If you need assistance, hang up and then call your operator." Well, it's something like that. For sure hang up when the operator starts her recorded message, because soon that very loud and annoying  ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah will come on and scare the pants off you. But maybe, maybe, it keeps one of Rachel's phone lines tied up for a few seconds longer and she can't make quite as many telemarketing calls.

So, stay on line after Rachel talks, but hang up when you hear the operator talk. 

This is just another service I offer to the readers here. You're welcome.
