This number won't be calling me again. I use PHONE TRAY, the free call blocking program, to hang up on any future calls. Google "Phone Tray Free" if you'd like a copy of the program.
Telemarketers are required by law to maintain a "Do-Not-Call" list where they put the numbers of people who don't want to receive future solicitations from them. Numbers on the list must remain there for at least 10 years. If you want to be a [***] and play the Telemarketer Mini-Lottery, demand a written copy of their do-not-call policy, which they are required by law to provide. Any telemarketing company failing to provide this owes you $500 under the TCPA (Telephone Consumer Protection Act). It might not be a $350 million jackpot, but it'll more than pay for the dinner they ruined.
i had to quit there. that job was terrible. i did it for extra money. and i hope you people understand that it is hard bugging people for money. with each call i made i felt crappier and crappier. they don't care about their employees i agree. i was sick and had a doctors note and they still yelled at me for being gone more then me "schedule changed days" if they call make their lives easier and just hang up. we get paid to "screen" our calls which means 3 asks and "dollar drop" it was a pain in the [***]
I don't feel bad for people who do this job. Sorry about your luck, dude!! But if you mess with my homelife, the peace and quiet and privacy that I EXPECT in my own home... I WILL report you and the company you work for!!! Count on IT!! ... and as far as being EXEMPT from the "do not call" list... I call bull-defocation on that... yes, you might be, but the fact remains that once somebody says "stop calling" you cross into harrassment by telecomunications territory... I have NO quams about pressing charges or filing complaints.... and don't bother asking me to feel bad for you. If being on the phone is what you want to do... there are OTHER option that don't even require you to leave your home... seriously. Poor babies. If your job is that bad, file your own complaints and leave, relocate, start your own phone sex busines... I will NOT pity you. Leave me the hell alone and stop acting like a victim. It's harrassment plain and simple... and I for one will not tolerate it.
