hahahaha I like thatmendozanow said:Haha, that is my experience too. Unfortunately, our land line used to be the number for a medical group, and when I answer informally they just stay on the line for 10 or 15 seconds and then they hang up. They then usually call back in a minute or two to see if they miss-dialed. In order to stop them rephoning, I have taken a page out of my favourite character in "El secreto de sus ojos", and say "Banco de Esperma- donación o retiro?" That usually prevents them from bothering me again.
