I threaten my bank / CC company that I will be moving my custom somewhere else if they don't sort their s*** out. It seems to work rather well.
At least it stopped the monthly phone calls asking if I wanted to upgrade something or other, or buy home contents/travel insurance (I sleep during the day, so it got annoying fast). One actually phoned me back after I hung up on him several times, and had to have it carefully explained to him why I was hanging up.
I do miss playing Rick Astley at them though, and hoping the call is being recorded for training purposes (or better yet on speakerphone, with the boss right next to them). The next company to cold call is getting Nyan cat.
