I receive numerous calls from this number several times a day and have been receiving them for months. I asked them to stop calling my land line number without success. They call at all times of day and night and even wake me and other people living in my house.

Received a call to home phone (both home and cell on DNC lists) about 4pm today. Only shows up as Reedville, Va and this phone no. No message left when it rolled to v/m. Had so many spam/scam calls this past year, that my blocked calls hit a limit. Will have to delete some of earlier ones (and hope they don't start back up) so I can put in the ones calling all this week.
If possible, turn your volume down so you won't hear it ring. For family and friends or others you deal with... If it is important, they'll leave a message. In the meantime, try to invest in a phone with a call blocking feature. I have one and I love it! Right now, I have over 60 numbers (and growing) blocked. You won't even hear the phone ring when it's blocked. You can even block it while its ringing! What's gonna happen is when the person calls, they will hear the phone ring a couple of times, then it will disconnect the call without you having to answer. My phone is a Panasonic KX-TGEA 40. Or look into any phone that blocks. Hope this helps anyone.
