getting thse calls every day. caller id says southern prog. I am on the do not call list. does this not mean anything anymore??? are thse companies/telemarketers above the law? how can we get them to STOP? can we institute some sort of class action claim against them? i am also getting daily unsolicited calls from another "unknown name", (different number). these started around second week of jan. i feel this is an invasion of MY privacy!!!
I have been getting same calls. I called the number, and it was a recorded message--saying a call had been placed to my number regarding a recent magazine subscription. I do not subscribe to any magazines... The recording gave a customer service number, but it said that they would continue to try to reach me (oh joy). With these calls, you usually have to answer IMMEDIATELY...it is a computer-programmed call, and it dials several numbers at once. The first one to answer is connected. The rest are left with dead air.
I received 2 calls from "New Brunswic, NJ", same phone #. On the first call the woman wouldn't speak to me about the call, only my husband (not home, she said she'd call back). Second call the woman would talk to me about renewing my "Coastal Living" magazine subscription (they had sent it to me a year ago on their own.) I interrupted the sales pitch, said nicely that I wouldn't renew, interrupted the 2nd sales pitch to ask to be removed from the phone list and she was nice as pie. Good luck!
Just as I finished the entry above, I got another call from them. Yes, it is Coastal Living magazine - which I had a free trial subscription before. I told them to take me off their call list.
