I remember this happening when i visted my grandparents in India. I had taken a German flight into Dehli, and had a German paper with me.

Everytime they called, I just read the German paper. A few days of that, and they never called back again

The other possibility which works a lot like the call centre is telemarketting. Some offices operate off the same type of automated call system where the person calling (via automatic dialers) doesn't actually hear anything till a few seconds in, and frequently by the time they do hear anything, the person receiving the call has either hung up or is running their mouth.

Yup, get that all the time! Constantly picking up the phone with nobody there. No voice, nothing.

From telemarketters & call centres? Something tells me someone's pulling a blindfold over your eyes if that's the case...

Yes but it's the same 1-*** number ( I dont remember) but I've answered before and they talked to me, but @ 1:00am, the same number.. . .grrr. I do get prank calls often, so im not surprised if it's one of those, but still....*Humph*

I worked in a call centre back when I was in school and had to work one saturday morning. It was an investment firm and I answer the call...all I hear is heavy breathing...at those times the markets were nuts (2000) and people used to hold for like 30 minutes-2 hours on the phone so we were supposed to at least give someone the benefit of the doubt and hold on for like 2 minutes before we hung up if no one was there.

Anyway, after about 5 seconds or so I hear some heavy breathing...and I'm pretty sure the dude was "beating the meat". I was like hello, you've reached *insert company name here*. If you would like to do a trade or need some help with your investments I'd be glad to assist you. I called over my supervisor and we all had a great laugh together.

Ewww..maybe he meant to dial a 1-900 #. Or maybe I just "give good phone"

Originally posted by SonjaDanceDance Ok so I've been getting these calls with no one responding when i say hello. It just happened today again. Like I can understand it happening once awhile but like on a regular basis. At least once a day is out of hand. COME ON NOW JUST SAY HELLO!!! SAY HELLO!! not to sound like a deep dish song but seriously its annoying especially when your in the shower and you think its a possible summer job employer and you run across the room getting everything wet to answer the phone. Like I could get electricuted answering the phone like that. Ok enough ranting what hell should I do?
