Four calls today, answered two of them. The first call asked for ‘just a few minutes of my time’ told them I wasn’t interested. Called back twenty minutes later and I said I had already told you I wasn’t interested. He denied he had called me and I gave him the timestamp of each of the four calls from today alone. He just said okay and I hung up.
