Anyone else get bombarded with calls from 3?

sunflower27

Every few months they call about broadband/landline deals blah blah. I have got them ever since I signed up to 3 for wifi.

I used to answer them and politely say I am not interested. Now they ring at least twice a day (and it is from a private number). No message ever left.

I know I should just answer it now and say again no I am not interested but it infuriates me and I don't want to be snapping at the poor bugger at the end of the phone. I think I might just keep ignoring them. Maybe it will end up being written in the database 'never answers phone'.

Or maybe I should just answer and say 'no, stiiiiiiiilllllllllllllllll not interested.

Anyone else get these really annoying calls?

They'd probably just put in the database 'only ring every three months, not two'

Well if you are with 3, it probably is them - usually one in the morning and one call in the evening - oh and the odd weekend as well.

yes, twice a day till I answer them and then it starts up again a few months later. Usually two months. It's ridiculous.

I'm with three and have got one call since January and that was to ask me if I was happy with the service.

Log in to the My Three section of their website. There is an option in there on how you want to be contacted by Three just set it to the option you prefer. I said email and have not had a call since last November.

Why did you leave them?

srsly78

I left them too. Because they were sh1t.

Just tell them to fook off.

I have their crappy sattelite broadband cos I live in the sthickks, pay by debit card every month - if I remember.
About 6 hours after the bill is due, they start ringing, and Sat or Sunday, doesen't matter. Once I answered and told the guy it wasn't a convenient time, and he wouldn't get off the phone till I hung up on him.
Unbelieveable, but it gets results.

Terrible signal where i live, tried to explain that to them as they wanted to upgrade me, usual response was 'Mr Guill, you are breaking up, can we call you on a landline!!! Dumb Bastards.


Tell them to fook off does not work, a different person rings everytime.

Chris P. Bacon

And their customer service is crap,i rang last week to pay a bill and i was told there is a problem with my card,i went onto explain that there is nothing wrong with it and it works fine,the lady could not have been more ignorant about it,im going mad i switched over to them :mad:
