Oh definitely.
My main peeve in that respect are those people who've been dubbed "chuggers" (as in
charity m
uggers) - the people who stand around on the streets trying to get your direct debit details off you for various charities.
Now a lot of them will take a smile and a "no" and leave you alone. But some of them will go chasing after you trying, basically, to bully you into agreeing to give n amount a month to a charity after being able to give it all of about 20 seconds thought.
