Agree with all above. I hate 'em too.
Here's a funny story though. Our local radio station has a brilliant breakfast show and the host is known for windups. People email him with info on folk who are bugged by various things. I missed this when it first went out, but it replayed this morning. This guy was called by the DJ (who puts on umpteen different voices including an old lady of 89!) and said no to double glazing, triple glazing, a conservatory, a new pool, a new kitchen, new bathroom - you name it. It was hilarious. When the guy said stop calling me, I live in a new house, the DJ said to him, but you were a referral from X X and mentioned (obviously) his friend's name. He still didn't twig but said 'Who is this?' and when the DJ revealed himself, he apologised for swearing (obviously we just get the bleeps!) and being such a pillock on air! It was very very funny and certainly got my Friday morning off to a good start!
