Ever meet a guy at the bar and felt obligated to give them your number to him? Well now you don’t have to worry about them calling you and at the same time get your point across that your not interested.

The Rejection Hotline is a list of phone numbers with a recorded message informing the caller that he/she has been rejected by the person giving him/her the number. This number may be given by persons who do not wish to give out their real number. Over 300 numbers currently exist as of May 2011.

The website indicates that the concept of the hotline began in 2001 simply as a joke, and when its popularity grew, the voicemail system was upgraded to allow more cities across America to host a number leading to the recording. The hotline was the brainchild of Jeff Goldblatt, according to the website.
