These guys are relentless! I swear they’ve got my number pinned. You’re better off just blocking them because they won't take a hint!

This number plays peek-a-boo with me every month or so... just silence before dropping the call like a hot potato! I've finally blocked it, though I suspect it's linked to some hearing test mob or something.

These blokes just won't take a hint! They keep ringing me up even after I've said I'm not interested. So annoying!

Look, I’ve been getting calls from these guys about hearing tests for two bloody years! I told them I need to see a doctor first. It's obvious they just want to shove hearing aids down my throat. News flash, my hearing’s fine now, but they just won’t take no for an answer. So frustrating!
