John - Same as Andy : I think if you truly read what people are saying you will see that these cold callers are IN FACT rude. If they were NOT rude they WOULD LEAVE their info to follow up on -however these RUDE callers just hang up on you mid - sentence! As soon as you say "No they aren't - may I take a message" by the time you get to "aren't" you have been RUDELY hung up on. They wouldn't even let you get part way throught your >> "thank you for calling me but ***RUDELY HUNG UP ON BY NOW** I am happy with my current adviser" and if your not then ask them for some information - who knows maybe they can help you.<< I AM SURE NOW this IS what you BOth do for a living. if you ARE JUST DOING YOUR JOB AND TRYING TO GAIN ACCOUNTS - don't RUDELY HANG UP on people. YOU try smiling and at least sat THANK YOU before hanging up on people.
~Not angry at all! :o) just tired of people wasting my time (and theirs) by RUDELY hanging up.
He called me at work and obviously knew my direct work number and he had my work email address. He identified himself as being with Joseph Gunnar and said he wasn't trying to get me to switch investment brokers, but wanted to differentiate himself. Annoying.
These idiots call and try to act like they know the person they are asking for my shortening that persons name - example: Timothy Jones has never used anything other than TIMOTHY as his first name -friends, family - everyone calls him TIMOTHY yet these jokers call and say "hey this is mark is tim around" like they are old buds. HA! Or RIchard who goes by RICHARD to friends and family and goes by Dick to anyone else and these idiots Call and again act like they know "Hey Rich please - this is Mark" HA! when you tell them you don't have a "RICH" they hang up! BECAUSE they are idiots!

So I get the same spineless idiot calling me from the same company from a different number. Yesterday he called from 631-761-6920 asked for the owner when I asked who was calling he said HE WAS Joseph Gunnar & when I asked what it was regarding he said a "personal matter" than asked for the owner's mobile number (yeah right - if it was such a personal matter you would already have his cell number!) when I told him I can take a message he just hung up. I than called back & was told it was a Joseph Gunner Stockbroker Company; asked to be put on a do not call list. So after this phone call I called back and asked to be put on a do not call list for this number 212-44-9600. Let's see what number he will call back next week.
