They can get quite angry and pushy when you say no aswell mate, my mum had them on the phone and when she kept saying that her computer had been turned off for months maybe even around a year, the asian lady on the other end of the phone got really aggressive and my mum actually had an argument with her about it and eventually put the phone down
