My dad managed to keep a double-glazing saleswoman on the phone for 45 minutes, got her to go through their entire product range and sounded all enthusiastic to her, until she offered to send a salesman round to display the products. It was only then that he pointed out we already had double-glazing, but that he was less likely to fall for their hard-sell tactics so he was saving someone else from grief. The woman on the other end didn't know whether to scream at him for wasting her time, or cry for having her call-stats & sell-quota screwed for the day, so after a pause, she just hung up! 
We added the landline number to the TPS-list shortly afterwards, and only got one sales-call over the next 5 years, for which the guy hurriedly apologised and hung up after we told him we were on the TPS-list!

i used to work in double glazing telesales. What a shite job that was. But as Dan B mentions - best thing to do is ring up BT and ask for Telephone Preference Service - (TPS) - which means BT won't sell your number to companies for cold calling.

When they ask them if you want to buy anything say would you like to buy a stable off me.
When they say no just say well fuck off then and hang up.
It's weird but funny for some reason. Or if they say no I don't have a horse say no I don't have a house for double glazing

best way to get rid of them is to try to sell them things, or psychologically analyse them down the phone
