It costs them to call you so keep them going as long as you can :)
As for ppi calls/texts I just go along with it, if they think they owe me £3k I'll happily take it off them, never had a cc or loan but apparently they owe me £3k
Or the accidents they were that bad I forgot them but I'll happily take £3k :)

Nob jockeys the lot of em

In fact while we're have a good rant, who else is fed up of these bloody clothing appeal bags that get thrown through your door every day? Had a read and out of the 6 that came this week 1 of them was an actual charity the rest were companys that make there money off our worn out clothes :@ :@ :@

Rant over :(

those clothing appeal things really piss me off.

actualy run by private companies that give said charity a commision for useing there name.   its not like the clothes are even used as clothing somewhere.  they just rip them up into rags  they then compress and pack them into bags that they then sell iirc  £15 for 10 KG   

putting adverts in paper is worst thing you can do if cold callers piss you off.  you'll get more people ringing up trying to sell you adveriseing  than anything else  usally  some sort of scam as well by a company named after a soft fruit

I also get the clothes bags but I just bin them! I have a clear out once a year and drop my clothes off at the local charity shop.
