A number of years ago a friend of my father passed along two good suggestions to eventually stop the telephone and door to door solicitors in their footsteps.
The first was to use call display and not answer any unrecognizable phone calls.
The second was to say to all of those who got through or knocked on the door '...will welfare pay for that'
It drove my mother nuts. In most cases he only got as far as the word welfare before the caller hung up or walked away. After a time he got fewer and fewer calls.
