I just got a call on from this number, too, they left a recorded voicemail about carpet cleaning. I also have a 201 area code cell phone. I looked up this phone number all over the internet and it led me to an IP phone company based out of England. I called them, acting all innocent and like I really wanted to find out who their NJ Carpet cleaning customer was so I could use their services. They put me on hold for a few minutes and said they couldn't give me any information on the phone number (which of course, is not what I asked!).
I also called Verizon to have this number blocked, but they told me they cannot block a number if it is not a 10-digit number. This is clearly designed this way on purpose to get around anti-spam rules. They are using IP phones to make these calls and putting 9-digit phone numbers in for their caller ID, knowing that companies cannot block them. My phone is on the Do Not Call registry and I never get marketing calls, so I am really curious to know if they got my number off some list or if they're just dialing every number in the 201 area code. My bet is on the latter.
If they call again I will pick up and try to schedule an appointment. If I get anywhere with this I will update here!
Ditto in Bayonne...these people stink. I asked the operator to take me off the calling list at LEAST 4 times already...I always get called again eventually.
These freakshows called me in the middle of school. I tried to call them back, but the number only had six digits and my phone was saying it couldn't reach the number.
Finished running, got my gym bag with my phone, and it said missed call from 201 425 781. I noticed something was weird, called it back, and of course got nothing.
I just got hit with this call too. They left a message. Is there any way to complain or get money back if we wasted minutes or money listening to this crap voice mail?
