I had a phone call that went like this:

Them: May I speak to the owner of the business?

Me: What's this about?

Them: We are (undescernable bla bla) POS company.

Me: What POS company?

Then: (undescernable bla bla bla) POS company.

Me: Sorry, but we already have a problem. I can't quite make  
out what you are saying.

Them: We have great rates for your POS service. How long have  
you been in business?

Me: Sorry, but unless you are calling about placing an order  
with my company I don't have time to answer arbitrary  
questions.

Them: It's OK. We are not selling anything. This call is to  
find out what POS merchant company are you with now? What is  
your annual sales income?  ...

Me: Not interested.

Them: I'm telling you, we want to send you FREE information!

Me: But my information, and time answering your questions is  
NOT free.  Goodbye.

Until recently, my business line was a landline. And everytime  
I would try to hang up on a call, the line would NOT release a  
dialtone back to me. I would have to wait until the caller  
terminated the call.  Now on cellular, when I initiate a  
disconnect it is a true disconnect.
