2/9/2008 @ 2:08 PM got a call from this number. They hung up when the answering machine picked up. I recently got caller ID so I don't know how often in the past they've called.
I'm so sick of these calls!!! I've been getting these recorded calls about "auto warranty expiring" for a few months now from different numbers. When the calls first started I spoke with someone there and asked her to take me off the list, she said they would but they still call - sometimes 3-4 times a day!!! I just hang up.
today "freeuom Voice" came up on my caller id when they called
1) Report the calls to the FCC here: https://esupport.fcc.gov/form1088/consumer.do The FCC enforces the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA); the TCPA forbids both unauthorized prerecorded telemarketing calls to residential land lines and autodialer (predictive) calls to cellphones.
2) Sue 'em. Whether you received only one illegal call or multiple calls, the TCPA gives you the right to sue for damages to the tune of $500 per call. You can file suit yourself (usually in small claims court) or retain a consumer law attorney who will take care of it on your behalf. Many times, by the way, the telemarketer settles out of court.
Thanks for the info. Here is something else that I found. donotcall.gov
You can also register your phone number by calling 888-382-1222. make sure you are calling from the number you want to have protected. It took me 30 seconds to complete the whole process.
By law, all telemarketing companies must check the national list every 31 days. If you continue to get calls after that, you can go back to donotcall.gov, and the offending company will be fined.
