Keeping an eye on cold callers
Re: Cold callers leave me cold (LT Letters, March 3).
I no longer need to answer the phone to a cold caller. My phone has a number display.
If it shows a very long number or P or O (meaning number withheld), I ignore it.
At my convenience I pick up the phone and if it was a genuine caller they will have left me a message.
