What time is also early/tardily to call?
I’m sitting here in bed (its 11.49pm here) and I’ve just come off the phone to a friend. He rang me virtually ten minutes agone and when I answered he said, ‘oh! I didnt call up you would be upwards.’
:rolleyes:
Information technology didnt hurt because I was awake, but I remember its far as well belatedly to be calling at nearly midnight.
What time do you think it is as well late to ring people? How nearly too early?

I think it’due south as well early to telephone call people before 9am and too later after 9pm. If anyone calls me later on 9pm and then I often worry in case it’s an emergency or something.

We accept strict cutting off times here.
Before 8am and we almost flatly refuse to reply.
After 10pm and we don’t like answering. That mainly stems from the amount of calls that we got when I was a child after 10pm, and those calls were normally to tell united states that my Male parent (who was a Constabulary Inspector) was in hospital again after either an accident, or having been beaten up for the 1 millionth occassion.
I don’t make calls before 8am or after 10pm either. I just don’t call back it’south off-white.

I like to phone people, at 2am and ask them are you lot awake
One of my friends used to practice this all the time with his mobile, randomly merely telephone someone upward in the street while he was simply out side the firm, and equally soon as the person answered the telephone , he hung up

I just telephone call people betwixt 9am and 8pm. I think its rude to phone call outside these hours, unless you know that you are okay to call at other times.
My sis in constabulary regularly phoned me at 2am or after. I didn’t listen – I wasn’t working at the time, and she was in a lot of pain/discomfort due to being significant. I’d never telephone anyone else at this time though!

My mother is not the only 1 who thinks 10.05 is as well belatedly then. I’d accept said anything upward to maybe 10.30 or 11.00 is OK, unless of-course y’all know the household has probably gone to bed by then.

I have to call people at home in the evenings every bit office of my job (non sales!), and I dislike calling after 7pm, and never after 8pm. I would never call someone before 10am.

exactly! I said this to him, and he just kind of laughed and said ‘suppose then’ but information technology didnt seem to sink in. :rolleyes:
Not that it excused him but it was kind of important. Well, not important but I sympathise why he was drastic to call.
He’s been making a habit of phoning and texting late at night which I recall is weird as I’ve only known him a couple of weeks. My mum said to turn my telephone off or onto silent, but I dont similar to in case someone rings and it is an emergency!

Take you had any sales calls early or late
I have had a couple telephone me at 8am, and by the sounds of the ascent, it was indian asking me if I was interested in a new kitchen

In the morning I wouldn’t really call anyone before 9am – on a weekend 11am (unless they have littl’uns as they’re already up)
In the evening any fourth dimension subsequently 10.00 is a bit dodge unless you know they’ll be up.

Not after 2330 and not before 0700

Reminds me of my mother-in-police force who had a habit of phoning united states of america at about half-past ix. When we tried to (gently) point out that it was really a bit late for general chit-chat she got really upset, rang off, then phones ten minutes afterwards to apologise for phoning the kickoff time

hehe! I used to do that too. My nan is the sort who volition talk for half an hour well-nigh a blouse that she decided non to buy at a charity shop. So if I had to call and didnt fancy listening, I’d telephone call at seven.29pm

9am to 9pm. I have told my dad off for calling me at 9.50pm before. He goes to bed at 2am and hasn’t worked for about 15 years, so he has no concept of when is appropriate.

Why practise some people feel it necessary to phone or text your mobile telephone during the dark? :rolleyes:

aaargh! the guy but sent me a text.
Ok, I’m still upwards, but he doesnt know that!

I wouldn’t phone anybody before 9am or after 9pm too. In fact I don’t answer the phone afterwards teatime I allow the answerphone get it. My reasoning is I go enough nonsense telephone calls at work without having to put upwardly with the MIL at night
When nosotros split something on the carpeting I wanted to telephone the carpet cleaner on a Sun but OH wouldn’t let me :rolleyes:
When I did telephone next morning she said you wouldn’t believe it we become calls at 10pm and 7am 😮
