Yes, I have call display and would not give it up. It saves me from discussing why I will not make donations over the phone; solutions to save me money- charge me less- I am not interested in bundling and adding to my list of services; explaining that I am not moving;I do not need a security service- my neighbours are very good-the best security you could ask for. If I receive a call with with Private name, private number- I do not answer- too many times when I have answered out of curiosity, I have discovered that it is group seeking donations or offering services that I have not requested or want. I do make donations but not over the phone, mail the information which yes costs money but having someone call many disinterested people also costs money.
As of today, we are not supposed to receive calls from telemarketers but I wonder this practise will be stopped when we do not know where they are calling from? Even the companies that are on the okay list do not display their phone numbers- interesting.
I must admit I will miss Boris and Janez' calls. There was a regularity to their calls asking if I wanted to book a mover for an impending move- I can not imagine moving until I tackle my extra things. Yes, working on my blog is one way of avoiding that problem.
It will be interesting to find out how effective this legislation is. Already many telemarketers, charities and even Bell telephone block their information. How will we know who is bothering us without phone numbers?
Good by Boris.
