They have call my home phone repeatedly for the past several months. When you answer the phone a lady says," Kerrie"... and then hangs up.. last call 6/18 10:45 a.m.
this number calls through out the night waking us up I want/need it to stop. It has gotten so bad we're taking the phone off the hook through the middle of the night.
This number seems to belong to BellSouth (AT&T) privacey director service. If you get a call from this number it really means that some other number is trying to get ahold of you and BellSouth is doing it's job by essentially blocking the call. If you don't believe me, try calling the number back and see what happens.
Bellsouth's Privacy Director number - formerly another business somewhere in Florida, but now this is the number that shows up for any number calling your number who does not want to give out their phone number via your Privacy Director service. Every time I've picked it up the little recording that is supposed to just give you the person's name is playing another recording from the originating number and I only get one or two digits before it asks me if I want to answer, reject or ignore.
Oh - I saw a previous post talking about if it just hangs up - this usually means the caller does not want you to have any record of them calling or they simply do not like dealing with the Privacy Director setup so they just hang up. Privacy Director will only ring about 5 times before disconnecting.
For the person receiving calls throughout the night - the calls are probably not calls from businesses as they know they cannot contact you after 9pm in your time zone. Either you have a teen at home who is not supposed to receive calls at night and the friends are trying to avoid identification, or your number may be a close match for another teen's number. Been there, done that. The best thing to do in that situation is contact your phone provider and have your number changed.
Call comes up Privacy Director on display. When I have answered; says please stand by for a Representative. Then clicks off after a few seconds. I tried to call number back and receive message that no incoming calls can be received at this number. What is this stuff?????
