This company Maritz Research, called, and said they were calling on behalf of Bank of America, and I told them if Bank of America had any questions they should call me directly, I do not speak with 3rd party callers.. and I am writing a letter to Bank of America, and suggesting if they want to do a survey of their services, they should do it themselves.. I know their customer service agents are recorded, so they can critique them that way, they do not need to hire 3rd parties, and I am upset to know they may have given my phone number to someone I do not know.. no wonder there is so much identify theft around if the banks give or sell your information.. guess they need extra cash to compensate for the mess they have created on Wall Street.
I have only received 2 calls from this number (both in the last week) and did not pick up either time. No message was left. Just out of curiosity, I wanted to see where the number was calling from and Googled it. So glad Google allows people to comment on numbers to alert people about scams. I would never provide information to anyone over the phone anyway, but it's ridiculous the lengths company's/people will go to to get your information.

How can I get them to stop calling? I've picked up & told them to stop calling; it hasn't worked.
Bothered my husband as he was getting ready for work. Someone wanted to conduct a survey about Bank of America. He told them a few choice words about B of A, then hung up.
