I get A LOT of calls from 800/888 numbers, both on my cell phone and my home phone. I know I need to do the blocking thing, but it keeps slipping my mind (or I just get too damn lazy to do anything about it).
Of course, a few of those 800/888 callers are from collections (oops :x) but the vast majority are telemarketers. Anyway, I make it a point to NEVER answer a call coming from an 800/888 number. Any of you avoid certain calls on a regular basis? |

It might be bill collectors! Or people trying to sell you life insurance. Don't give out your cell on applications. Only your house phone. If they keep calling change the number or shut off the ringer!
