If you've read the bloody sign, why ignore it?
Discussion
Just had to pop downstairs to the front door for a few minutes. We have a metal sign on the wall next to the door bell, in so many words, it tells cold callers to 
off.
Anyway, this very petite and oh so pretty little oriental girl in her late teens is at the door, with a 'TALK TALK' clipboard, and she launches into what I immediately recognise as bullshit. Some cobblers about did I get the change over details a few weeks ago as my neighbours have? I listen, then point out the sign, and she says she did read it but its OK as she's not selling anything. Then proceeds to try to get me to change my telecomms supplier. Thanks but no thanks.
I think I am going to have to get a new sealed double glazed unit made up for the front door with a bit stronger notice on it, in lead and stained glass. Mind you, she was lovely, got this image of white sox now, and...er...sorry, must go.

Had exactly the same last night, guy and lass from Talk Talk, despite the pretty clear sticker next to the door bell telling them 'NO'. Same old spiel about 'all your neighbours have ....'
These people drive me nuts, but my usual line of "I have a no door-step buying policy, read this sign" seemed to work.
Can't believe that anyone ever listens to these people

I used to have a "No Canvassing" sign on my front door. A few years ago during local election time the Lib Dem candidate decided to ignore it:
Me (opening door): Yes?
Lib Dem Candidate: Good afternoon sir, do you know who you'll be voting for in the upcoming local elections?
Me (pointing to "No Canvassing" sign): Yes, someone who can read.
I shut the door on him before he could respond.

Also of concern, she was only a young girl, on her own, and sorry to keep going on about it, but she was gorgeous. Anyone could have let her into their house, with the very worst of intentions. No doubt the team leader would be in the area, and other members of the canvas team nearby, but it still seems dodgy to me.
