My mother has been geting her alot of calls from 0201 257 4201 asking how much she paidsfor her electric bills she tells them not to call, but they still do.
i answered once and they would not say who they were
I have received calls from this jerk for almost a month now. Usually every 2-3 days, and its always more than once the days the number does call. Nobody ever picks up, I stopped answering them, but this is rediculous. Somebody needs to hang this guy out to dry.
These scumbags call and when I answer to tell them to stop calling me, they hang up before I can say anything. I think they are a bunch of perverts who get off by hearing my voice. If that is the case, they could at least pay me for whacking off when calling me. I will be sending a letter to Omnipoint Communications, Inc. - NJ, owner of this number to let them know that the FTC will be contacting them.
This is why this company keeps calling, despite it being against the law. They are friends of the current administration, who allows them to get off by paying a fine based on their ability to pay. Wish I could get that deal from the IRS!

Do Not Call Fines Slashed From $11M to $95,000 for Dish Network Telemarketers
28 Jul 2008
Two telemarketing companies that sell Dish Network satellite TV services have agreed to pay fines of $95,000 for ignoring the federal do-not-call list and making customers listen to recordings for too long, federal regulators said.
Planet Earth Satellite Inc., of Phoenix, Ariz., and its president have been charged with calling consumers whose phone numbers are on the National DNC Registry.
Star Satellite LLC, based in Provo, Utah, was accused of making telemarketing calls that failed to connect consumers to a live telemarketer within two seconds after consumers answer the call.
The FTC initially sought a $7 million settlement from Planet Earth and $4.37 million from Star Satellite.
Based on the companies' ability to pay, the amounts were reduced to $20,000 and $75,000 respectively. But the larger amounts will be due if the companies are found to have misled federal regulators about their financial condition.
