Prank phone calls with a twist...

January

So sitting in the house last night around 11.30 and got a bit peckish so decided to bung a pizza into the oven. Just as the pizza was ready there was a knock at the door, not really thinking, go down and answer it.

A guy from Mizzoni Pizza is standing there with an armful of pizza and two large diet Coke's. I told him we didn't order anything and he must have the wrong address and off he went on his merry way.

So a few minutes later just about to sit down with my pizza and the door goes again, I assumer it was the Mizzoni guy back again, so opened the door and lo and behold a guy from Domino's is standing at the door with another arm load of pizza and two diet Coke's. Realised that it wasn't a mistake!! So rang both Mizzoni and Domino's and turns out the fvckers that ordered gave false mobile numbers.

Ever had anything like this happen to you??

You should've told them they were 40 minutes late. Free pizza for you.

I've seen this movie. It turns out you actually are Tyler Durden in the end.

If I found out who it was I'd give them a pizza my mind.

It may be encrusted with cheese but I like it.

Completely not related to that prank, but I want it to be known!

I pranked my mate last night...rang him, putting on a fake accent, telling him I was from the VHI Clinic and that I tried ringing him mother all day but no answer. I said his number was put down as a 2nd number on her form and just to tell her that her test came back positive and that she should contact us back quickly as it's treatable early on...I said she'd know what I'm talking about. He was so confused and said he would!

I felt good.

Nope, pretty much have kept to ourselves since we moved in. Had a few people knick knacking and the dude next door has it in for us... keeps ringing the landlord telling her when we're getting (authorised) work done to rat on us. But apparently, according to neighbours, he's just a príck...

It has to be someone from the road though because all our friends know we have the baby and wouldn't have someone banging down the door that late at night for a prank...

A family on our road had that happen to them except it was Chinese and pizza deliveries.
It went on for about a week until the wife rang all the local delivery places and explained what was happening, gave them a code word that she would use if she wanted to order from them so they would know it was a valid order.

It didn't happen again.

Chinese take away with added espionage. I like it.

Yeah done it to the two places last night, told them not to take orders from us unless we used our house phone number when they asked for it. If it happens again tonight I'll be doing the same... only thing is I'll be ordering Chinese tonight :eek:

Poor Uncle Tom

a regular peperoni with extra cheese......the fox is in the henhouse..:D:D

jester77

hmm, shame about the diet coke. If the prank callers had instead ordered beer with the pizza's then I would have paid for them and dumped the oven pizza in the bin

RATM

Bummer for the drivers who wasted their petrol for no tips. Bigger practical joke on them than the OP tbh.

yeah thats all i was thinking too. noone ever thinks about what it'll be like for the delivery man who has to pay the pizza himself. or the school cleaners when we let geese and ducks run free.

Brimmy

The delivery man doesn't pay for the pizza himself?

OP you should have just offered to take it for free as it would have gone to waste otherwise :P

we had that happen once, three taxis and a pizza and chinese all arrived within five mins of each other. but the frist taxi man demanded we pay him for a call out and while we were arguring about it the rest arrived.

turned out that the chinese place had thier number. they ran it back and it was the next door nieghbours kid having a laugh. her mother was not impressed at having to deal with all these deliveries.

we went inside and laughed till it hurt.

But laughing is supposed to make you feel good.

This is a prank phone call with a twist....
Put two mobiles on loudspeaker dial two separate numbers hold them together and let them chat away!! They both assume they were called by the other person who will of course deny it!
Get the timing right and its brilliant

I know it's completely childish, but pranking American businesses via Skype is fantastic fun. Rang a hotel in Las Vegas once looking for Lieutenant Frank Drebin and had about three hotal staff checking the lobbies and everything for him.

I also rang the White House once using Google Directory. Some guy answered and said "White House." and I freaked out and hung up.

Sharpshooter

You should have said "Sorry, wrong colour".

my friend worked at domino's for a while, and when people didnt pay for their pizza's he'd to pay for it. I dont think he paid full price, but he had to pay the cost anyway.

We ordered a coach to be sent to the school down the round once, said the coach company had let us down at the last minute....

I'd say that was for deliveries made after the 30min deadline which wasn't met and so had to be free.

For prank orders I dont think (s)he'd have to pay.

So the local lads have switched from calling childline to the aul pizza delivery prank.

That was very cruel and nasty. As somebody who has endured bad news, I can't imagine what your poor mate (if he is still your mate) went through.

Funny OP though!

Notorious

Myself and a few others pulled a slightly similar prank on a mate during college. We got onto buyandsell.ie and made a fake profile for him. Then we advertised loads of items either really cheap, or for free. Such as cheap consoles, a cheap Glanza, a free large trampoline (which was too big for his garden), an antique tractor (no idea where that idea came from). We made the ads look as legit as possible, googled all the items to put up good info.

The ads were processed one weekday morning, and while he was in his 9am lecture his phone started vibrating. He claimed to have had about thirty missed calls before he turned his phone off.

Op, next time look at the windows of the neighbouring houses - the pranksters will usually give an address which is close to theirs. It's only fun if you can see the hilarity take place when the unrequested pizza arrives.

demakinz

the best prank iv done is to ring my mate and tell him it was stephen from woodies diy and we were just ringing to let him know that his garden shed would be droped off at 8:30 the next morning.payment would be collected on delivery..it was so funny cause he tried ringing back woodies but he didnt know which store.whats better was he lives in an 2nd floor appartment.priceless.


there is a good one on youtube where they ring 2 take aways and put the two phones together oh and two sex lines.
