Over the past few days I have been receiving abusive and silent phone calls of some berk who is withholding their number.
I am on Vodafone and called them to ask if theres any way I can stop witheld numbers calling my handset but they say they are unable to do this which for a major phone company I find hard to beleive.
I am using a Sony Ericsson K610i and wondered if I could do it from the handset.
Does anyone have one who can help as it's driving me mad. Goodness knows where they got my number from as usually its always witheld myself from my end if I am calling someone I don't really know. Ta in advance ;D

One option is report it to the police. they will give you a crime reference number and that way Vodafone will change your number for you free of charge

Iv'e got a ref's whistle at home. Bet I could blow it more times than Mr Dirkin in the space of one of these silent calls  No Dave I got my ticket a long time ago. Am really careful who has it to be honest. The person hurling the abuse sounds welsh not from round here. |

Best thing to do is answer it, then put it in a cupboard. Grab a beer, sit yourself down and be smug in the knowledge that some brain dead welshman is paying 30p a minute to abuse the inside of your cupboard. Repeat every time he calls and he will soon get fed up I assure you.

Record your own hold music and put your phone next to the stereo.
When he calls put him on hold whilst constantly reminding him that his call is important to us, his call is the next abusive call in the queue.
Then loop until desired effect.

Ah, One had some chap on the phone the other evening trying to sell me some new widows. One asked him if he wanted to buy a mountain Bike and went on to give him all the details about it. I don't think that he was to impressed by it though as he put the phone down before I got the chance to tell him the price

Get someone you know to record a message on your answering service saying that all withheld numbers are now transfered to the staffordshire police data protection service or some shit like that.
When you get a withheld call let them go to the answering machine, they will soon give up after a few.

In fairness, this would never have started if you hadn't fucked the bloke's wife.
You've brought this on yourself, you philandering swinehunt.
