Pushy cold caller from vacationrentals .com

Post by Mountain Goat »

Dire cold-caller today trying to get us on this listing site with the sole sales pitch that they're #1 on Google for:

vacation rentals

True, but so what? Not exactly what a punter would use for a holiday search.

Had to put the phone down on her to get some peace - sounded like a 400-strong Madras call centre humming in the background.

Don't you just love Google!

http://www.vacationrentals.com/vacation ... donia.html

Website says: Sorry, there are no Macedonia listings at this time. Please check back again soon.

Then a boring load of travel blurb about Macedonia...

And guess what? This particular page has google pr of 4!

Anyway, isn't it known as the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia?
