Some woman called in claiming that representatives from their company had stopped by last week to try and make an appointment with the owner (whose name she butchered). That's a bald faced lie. I'm the receptionist with the company and unless they were here while I was on break, no one from SMS (which doesn't stand for anything she said) came by wanting an appointment with the owner. When I was asking her questions about the company she was calling from, she hung up on me. It was hard to understand her anyway since the mic on her headset was so close to her mouth and she was talking so loud the sound was distorted.

They called again today. I sent the call to an extension with out voice mail. The guy allowed the phone to ring for three full minutes before giving up and hanging up. What a moron.
The Lady who called today and the other day is Pushy and says "Can you get Alan (the owner), I need to talk to him right away". When she didn't identify herself or her company, I said he was unavailable, to which she said "great, I'll call back tomorrow". and then promptly hung up on me before I could tell her that he wouldn't be there tomorrow...or the day after that...or EVER for that matter with her attitude.
But Hey, SMS could be a legit company...I highly doubt it with THOSE sales tactics though.
Hi Manda, I doubt they are legit too when the first time they called and the lady told me that SMS didn't stand for anything, that tells me they are just bottom feeding telemarketers. They called again today and I sent the call to the same extension without voicemail. This time they were smarter (and I use that term very loosely) and only let it ring for 2 minutes before hanging up.
