Robo-caller, but human answers when hitting '1' on keypad.
Selling business services, but calling residential number.
I informed caller that we're on do not call lists (federal and Wisconsin) and asked to have my home removed from their lists. I also informed caller that their call is illegal, especially since I've asked to be removed previously. He said:
"We can't remove you from any list. We don't have access to that, I guess because the owner doesn't want us to."
This number has shown up on my phone 3 times today. I called them back. Selling business services, but calling a residential number. Asked the guy how he got my number since it is unlisted and that I am on the don't call list and before I could tell him anything else...he hung up!! These calls are getting to be ridiculous.
These butt-wipes called our company yet again with their inane illegal robo-recording (violate FCC requirements because they do not identify their company and do not provide a valid phone number.) I listened to the same stupid message of, "Press 1 to update your FREE internet business listing. Again, press 1 to update your listing." When I didn't respond, it quickly disconnected. I call-blocked my number and called the telephone # and another recorded message picked up, thanking me for calling my "local SDO (??) Department" or something like that and went into a spiel about how their company puts companies in prime places to be noticed. I hit 1 to speak with some butt-wipe who identified himself as Matt. I asked him pleasantly what was the name of his company. He hesitated and said "29 Prime." I then (still pleasantly) asked him if he was aware that the recorded message they use was in violation of FCC regulations. He claimed ignorance. (Stupidity and voluntary ignorance, more like.) I explained it was and that there were numerous complaints lodged with the FCC about them, that they should get in compliance quick. He started saying something but I just told him, "Have a nice day," and hung up. It won't do any good, I know, but at least I have a tidbit of info to pass on in my FCC complaint - that's assuming he actually truthfully identified his so-called company.
They call and hang up. So annoying. When I call back, it says "press 1 to speak to a rep... press 9 to be removed..." Neither button does a thing. Completely ludicrous.
