Tipsy McSwagger · 04-07-2011 09:42AM

Absolutely, and do it at 3.50am.

Whispered · 04-07-2011 09:44AM

If he was up at 3.50 am chances are he's asleep now and brewing a hangover. Ring now.

mathie · 04-07-2011 09:44AM

Haven't you seen 12 Monkeys?
He was most likely calling from the future.

lmfao4eva · 04-07-2011 09:46AM

Definitely right in the middle of the morning it should pay off

Forget 12 Monkeys - haven't you seen Changing Lanes?
You'll end up in a spiral of revenge late night phone calls and ruin each others lives (and rack up a huge phone bill).

No good can come of this.

I was bored so I rang a few friends once on private.
I used a "text to speech" audio sites like here http://www.naturalreaders.com/index.htm

stick this into the text box and laugh:

hello, my name is derek, I am calling from meteor in regards to unusual activity from your account. It appears you have been ringing illicit gay chat lines. More than one. the Seedy and dirty kind

then ring and put your speakers up loud. :pac:

Chuck Stone · 04-07-2011 10:05AM

Turn off your phone at night man.

Faolchu · 04-07-2011 10:22AM

there was a bloke around here that set up a profile on a gay dating site for a prank, why not do that. or write the number on toilet walls etc

gonedrinking · 04-07-2011 10:37AM

Here, are you comin' down to the community centre, cause Ambrose Houlihan is throwin' fizzy chewits up for the boot!

Lawrence1895 · 04-07-2011 09:36PM

Just ring him at the same time and say: 'This is Kyle/Style/Doyle, did anyone ring for me?'

Ally Dick · 04-07-2011 09:39PM

Maybe his phone call was coming from inside your house :eek:

amacca · 04-07-2011 09:53PM

prank calling 101

heavily disguise youself and use a public phonebox (presumably there are some of those left?) -don't forget to go to elaborate lengths (these should be comically entertaining in an inspector Clouseau pink panterish style) to establish a solid alibi before making this "phone call"

make sure not to take public transport or bring any electronic devices so your location cannot be triangulated or established via receipts etc etc. Drive something french, like a citroen or a Peugeot (preferably vintage..a 2cv perhaps)

smoke a pipe and wear a trench coat for effect

these may seem like elaborate lengths to go to just to make a prank phonecall but the key to this thing as with most things in life is to make it a challenge and enjoyable...you'll probably be ringing this angry/drunk tosser on a regular basis and this way its sustainable

sigh, yawn, ffs..if you going to do a thing do it properly

newbee22 · 04-07-2011 09:56PM

Ring them back, they're probably in a deep hungover sleep at this time!

Berns · 04-07-2011 10:05PM

Make sure to withhold your number though when doin it

It's gettin light prity early now, how bout pretendin your their boss or a mate and say they're late for work once the sun comes up. They mightnt look at the clock and rush gettin ready :rolleyes: May never know but if the start sayin am gettin ready now

Maybe some review or sumfin their due for

Call him up saying you're from Amazon.co.uk or some other common online shop. Tell him he has been overcharged on his last purchase and he's due a refund to the tune of E12.13 or something similar. Ask for his address to ship the cheque to, if he says you should have it tell him you need to confirm it before refunds are sent. Write down his address. Send Alcoholics Anonymous and other such pamphlets.

I employed a similar tactic whilst tracking down someone who needed tracking down, rang him up and said I was from Meteor and he had won a €100 gift voucher, just needed to get his address to post it out. Gob****e fell for it hook, line and sinker.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: People are fucking morons.

stimpson · 04-07-2011 10:44PM

Post it up here FFS. Everyone record their calls and post on YouTube.

annascott · 05-07-2011 01:51AM

What are you - a stalker or debt collector?
:eek:

JONJO THE MISER · 05-07-2011 03:59AM

Ring Now:D

Fart · 05-07-2011 05:36AM

Take a picture of your penis (or the closest one to you)
Caption it: "Love, Kyle/Style/Doyle"
Send to his phone
???
Profit.

Overheal · 05-07-2011 05:49AM

Someone else wrote in AH, OP, many moons ago about a similar solution. That when he got solicitors or wrong numbers, he saved these.

Then, every once in a while, whenever he was upset or angry - at whatever - he said he rang up any one of these numbers. And when they answered, he just shouted back "BASTARD!" and hung up.

Maybe someone knows who this person was. I thought it was damn genious when I read it. My only problem though is Mexicans that call my phone and I'm too lazy to find the spanish for Bastard. And I pay by the minute even though my phone is dirt cheap.

Get ten of your mates to call five minutes apart and ask for Kyle, if he says "Kyles not here" then ask for Cartman.

EL_Loco · 05-07-2011 11:09AM

may I be the voice of reason in this sea of madness!!

Be the bigger person OP...

Find him and kill him.

mgmt · 05-07-2011 11:22AM

Place an ad in the Buy and Sell for a popular item at a very low price; car, playstation etc. He will then get phonecalls every couple of minutes for a week or more. It will drive him nuts.

Hail 2 Da Chimp · 05-07-2011 11:23AM

Actually don't O2 give out free sim cards, with credit, to people thinking of changing over?

If you got your hands on one of those, you could use that sim card for sending him pictures of your c0ck, or blue waffel so something...
