You people are taking these calls WAY too seriously. Listen, what you need to do is beat them at their own game. If they waste 20 minutes per call on 50 calls per day....we win. Here is my strategy.
1. Answer ALL their calls.
2. Tell them that you are a new small business and recently acquired the number.
3. Listen to their entire spiel about the bullsh*t service.
4. This step is important.....ASK LOTS OF QUESTIONS!!!!!!!! Take up as much time as you can. This makes you appear interested and ultimately lets them know you are in control.
5. ALMOST bite the bait. Get to the point of "almost" giving them your CC number.
6. Pause. Say, "Wait, I better ask my wife/husband/business partner before I buy.
7. Ask for a call back number. You won't get one. They will call you back.
8. Repeat the entire process with different name/company.
Eventually, they realize that you are a HUGE waste of time and take you off the list. It took three days and I was call free. Good luck, folks.
calls dozens times a day.

I am SO sick of getting these supposed Google calls! I get more than one a day and they don't even answer if I press "1" to talk to them so that I can tell them to quit calling me!
