  It is getting real piss off nowdays to answer those calls from
  
  insurance to bank or watever investment
  
  I mean it is ok if they call once~~ but somtimes the
  
  same person can call over and over again esp when
  
  you told them you are not interested!!!
  
  anyone have any bad experience on it?

  Hi, this is your name from AIA. Before you offer to sell me some stuffs, please help me meet my target can? I need one more insurance/or whatever crap to meet my target. I will help you some other days.

  when u fill in surverys or contest forms (online and offline), the details are captured and sold to db companies, which in turn, sold to insurance co and such.

  some of them really dun even know how to sell their product
  
  for instance ..
  
  tis guy explained wat gold credit card to me for approx 20 mins or
  
  so , in the end asking me how much i earn???
  
  then i told him i dun have that type of income yet
  
  I mean his first Q should be asking me how much i earn first
  
  before promoting his wat gold credit credit!!!
