Who the heck had this phone number before us?

We're always getting wrong numbers for whoever had this number before us.  Half the time it's collection agencies and the other half it's people who sound... I don't know.  This person had quite a motley crew for friends.  Here's the phone call that I just got:

Me: Hello?

Them: *sounds like they're in a wind tunnel* Can I speak to...

[pause, I'm waiting for them to say the name]

Me: Hello?

Them: *irritated* Hello? Can I speak to Pig. (pronounced Pee-iguh, kinda ghetto like)

Me: I'm sorry, you have the wrong number.

Them: HUH!?

Me: *hangs up*

    Muahahaha! I wonder what Pig does for a living? And if it's a male or female?? That reminds me of this song: http://www.ebaumsworld.com/video/watch/80493344/ (and yes, that's the best version of the video I could find)

    I get constant calls on my cell phone for a random assortment of people, usually looking to collect money they're owed. Our home line gets wrong numbers from out of the country, by people that ONLY speak Spanish - so they don't even understand when I'm telling them it's the wrong number! They call every July to sing Feliz Cumplea?os, hahaha. I feel bad, though! I wonder if they'll ever find out where their friend/family member moved to!

  • HAHA that's pretty funny, but I'd imagine it gets old REALLY quick! 

  • haha that's funny. I imagine some big bald guy with tattoos and a big biker beard.

     

    Years back I used to get wrong numbers on my cell phone, a nd it was always someone who spoke spanish. Once, I even got a voicemail about 3 minutes long in spanish haha.

    A couple weeks ago, I got a voicemail from someone saying, "why wont you and sharon pick up your phones?? I have some huge news to tell you guys! where are you??"

    hmm maybe because you aren't dialing the right numbers.

  • That's funny but I can definitely see it getting annoying after the first couple of times.  I changed my cell number a couple of years ago and all I kept getting were collections calls and calls from other moms and dads for playdates.  Needless to say I quickly changed it back to my original number lol.
