I still don't answer no matter who or what I may think it is ... even if I sorta suspect that it may be my bank, I still won't answer and usually I'll call my actual bank and ask them if they tried to call me about something.
I kind of did what you said for a while but it's too much of a waste of my time to deal with. I just don't bother any more and after about a year or two, I got fewer and fewer calls. I'm so bad with my phone that even my family and friends complain to me that they never hear from me and that they complain that I don't answer the majority of their calls.
I really don't like phones any more and I only ever use them if I really, absolutely need to talk to someone.
Well that's the thing, doing that technique I mentioned takes no time whatsoever for me but DOES take time for them. It's a nice petty little revenge.
