I'm getting sick of this...

[ToniCipriani]

OK, in the past few months, there's this woman who constantly keeps calling my mobile phone number, and looking for a non-existant person. I've told her tons of times that there's no such person, yet she just says "sorry", hangs up, then a while later (weeks or sometimes hours later) she calls again. I tried everything. Disconnect the call immediately when I see the caller ID, explain there's no such person, the person gave you the wrong number, everything. Nothing seems to stop it. The most irritating part is that I'm in Waterloo, and I'm paying roaming fees, because my phone is registered in Toronto. Anyway to deal with this other than saving the number as "scumbag" and for pressure relief? Edited December 13, 2005 by ToniCipriani

Why do you even pick up when her number shows up?

[ToniCipriani]

Sometimes it shows up as other numbers, and in some rare cases, different people. I suppose some person gave my number out for some reason. It does get irritating as sometimes my phone keeps vibrating in my pocket when I have a class. So I sort of wanted to solve the problem instead of just letting it ring. I dug up some info about the number who just called me. It's from the City of Toronto Community and Neighbourhood Services: HOSSEINPOUR, Kobra - CNS/PH, 40 St. Clair Ave. E......... 338-1610 Edited December 13, 2005 by ToniCipriani

Seriously...this isn't that hard: Set up your voicemail to plainly state your name and explain that if you are looking for ___ you have the wrong number.

How much would it cost to get a new phone number? If it gets to bad thats what I would do. Then hand the number out to those I trust.

I've had pretty much the same problem off-and-on for the last 4 years...I get a call at least once a month (from different sources) for a Joe Hightower...I usually never answer my cell if I don't recognize the number, and then they leave a voice mail. One caller was a lawyer trying to reach Joe Hightower and he called me three times in the same hour--just couldn't understand that I didn't know Joe and when he irritattedly suggested that I change my number, I suggested that he please go f*ck himself and hung up. :)
