This call comes in multiple times a day. They leave no message and if I answer there is no response, only silence. I have not called the number on the caller ID back which says DIRECTV because it could be one of the numbers that charges $25 per minute. For 3 weeks straight the call comes in sometimes multiple times a day but at least daily...
Just received another call from them. Caller ID show DirecTV & telephone number. I answered this time & told the guy that I'm on the Federal & State's DO NOT CALL LIST. I also said that I'm on DirecTV's DO NOT CALL LIST for any solicitation. As such, I asked him who he really was & started to do a 'TAP DANCE'...finally he said would process my request to their DO NOT CALL list, then UNG UP!!!
I think this is a third-party telemarketing group hired by DirecTV to up-sell existing customers and sell to past customers. I've added it as a contact as "DirecTV Upsell" and I ignore the calls. I got stung by the fine-print terms of an up-sell, so I never upgrade my DirecTV service.
I just received a phone call from this number also. They just would not stop trying to up sell me on my DirecTV service. I guess there is a showtime service upgrade at the moment for $11.01 a month. They asked me about 5 times until they finally told me they would call me another day. I did as someone said above. I saved the number in my phone as "Do not Answer".
I dont think it is directly with DirecTV. Seems like a secondary company.
