That only works for remote support type calls, you'll get opposite results if you try those tactics with free cruise or fake credit rate adjustment calls.

Do you have any tricks about the credit rate adjustment calls? Those are my current ire, as well as the car warranty ones.

I finally got one of the credit rate adjustment calls to not immediately hang up on me, kept them on for about 15 minutes.
They incorrectly claimed that I only gave them 15 digits for my credit card number-- I think to make sure I read them the same digits back. Next time I'll make sure to have a fake credit card number handy that passes the checksum.
