I get solicitations once in a while and I can always tell because it's a recording, so I just hang up. The rare times I have to talk to a human, I ... well, say "no thanks" and hang up, too.
I dislike that "put in your personal information" crap. Look, ask me about my age, years driving, points lost, accidents, whatever - it does me no good to lie to put all that in to get a quote, since it would change once I actually applied for the policy anyway, and they could background-search me. But damn, when I'm simply comparing quotes, I WILL NOT TELL YOU HOW TO FIND ME.
