Seriously, how can it expire shortly when they have been calling for months, years? Really? I decided press to speak to a "live" person....yes, with an accent from the rep ask how she could help, I very firmly stated that there is no association of a credit card to this business work cell and the calls needed to stop. All the rep said was thank you and hung up.
They called my cell this morning while I was driving so I didn't answer. Left no message. The Do Not Call List seems to be where these people the the numbers to call.
If you've received a call, the dialer already had "your actual phone number". A provision for opt-out is needed for Telemarketing Sales Rule and TCPA compliance. The dirty sales callers may have no intention of obeying, but would like you to think that nothing is wrong with their sales call blast. They may monetize a phone number attached to a human response, but the fact remains that some algorithm already made a decision for the first bunch of frauds that your number was worth trying.
