I'm pretty sure they have my photo after the very last contract I had with them in any way ended. "I'm canceling this service. I'm sure you're a nice person, please tell everyone you work for that I hope they get red bugs in their a-hole"

Tell them you have it and their service sucks during storms.

As they approach me, before they can say anything, i say

" I'm piggybacking off of my neighbor's internet and i know you can't be cheaper than that"

It always gets a good laugh and they dont try to sell me.

Have you tried looking them in the eye and saying, "I don't speak English"...then keep walking?

ETA...if that doesn't work...just do some crazy hand movements like you are talking in sign language, and keep moving.

I always give them direct eye contact like I am staring into their soul and will murder them if they say a word to me. Has worked 100% of the time so far.

When he approached me I simply said I’m good, and kept walking

I tell them I already have it and get an employer discount they can’t improve on.

Usually just flash them the gun in my waistband then slowly walk away backwards while pointing at them

Say no politely, and if that doesn’t work, call AT&T while standing next to him and say “cancel service”.

Usually the same technique I use any time there is a table set up just outside the doors of any store I'm in. I hold back and wait for some poor sap to go ahead of me, then slip by while the table people are preoccupied.

tell them im already a customer and give a thumbs up.

but to answer the spirit of your question: put my hand up palm out and say no thank you and keep moving without stopping or acknowledging anything else about them.

Why do you need to avoid them? Do they throw a lasso and drag you to them?

So many Drama Queens on here.
