      I believe for call collect, i.e. receiver pay, the telco will get permission from receiver before connecting the call right?


      Not fair to charge the receiver just because the person pick up the call.

          Hi


          Mostly they are calls which you can do without.

          Likewise when they ask ni hui jiang hua yu ma?

          I reply can you speak english?

          Straightaway they hang up.

          :imcool:

            I've been getting calls daily (and more than once today) from this number


            +60 3 01

            Haven't been picking up these calls on my hp. Looks dubious, and not even long enough to be a proper Malaysian number.

            Has anyone experienced the same thing? Maybe I should call SingTel to get them to block the number?

            Quite annoying and distracting to keep getting these calls.
            I had a call from this number when I was in Malaysia during the holidays.. and i thought it was an 'urgent call' from Singapore and decided to pick up on the 2nd call (as the 1st call rang so long).

            When i picked up, it was a Citibank telemarketeer!! can't they recognise the different ringtone when we are overseas!! told her i'm overseas and she still keep talking that i have to hang up the call. Wasting my money! :rant:

              Oh! I answered the call and a China lady asked me \"ni hui jiang hua yu ma?\"

              I reply \"hui\" then I hung up.
              :rotflmao: :rotflmao:

              I'll try that next time!!

                I did this once, and her reply was \"华人不会说华语\"! Then she hung up on me :stompfeet: :mad: :nunchuk:

                These days I just ignore such numbers.

                  I always say... 我不会说华语... in Chinese. It completely confuses them.

                    Sounds like they chat among themselves trying to come up with rebuttals to our lines. We must persevere to outwit and irritate them!

                      My BIL told us once he received a call from a PRC lady telling him he won

                      US$80,000 in a lucky draw but he needs to pay $500 for some admin fees to transfer the money to his bank account. He told the lady dun bother, just collect the money on his behalf and remit US$60,000 to him, the US$20,000 being commission for her 'hardwork' :evil:

                        If you are in the \"mood\" to retaliate then pick up,


                        If you are not in the \"mood\", just ignore the call and let it miss.

                        Except when you are on handsfree and they call then you can't do anything about it.

                        However they are not the worst. I ever got nuisance call where I pick up and this indian lady started spouting the worst languages of all. I had to pick up the calls let her finished ranting. Must have \"evidence\" that I have received these calls, reported to police then reported to M1 then they will block the calls.

                        :faint:
