I had to answer this note. My husband passed away three tears ago the first of November, So I am also a widow.
The caller hangs up after 4 rings so I never spoke to him/it . When I tried to call back the number is NOT is service.
I had my phone number unlisted [ landline] and how can you add to Do Not Call when the number ""IS NOT IN USE""
My daughter gave a cell phone so most of the family and emergency calls are on the cell phone.
Ellie ~ I know exactly how you feel being alone makes the "asinine" calls. My husband traveled quite a bit so sometimes it dulls the pain of the corrupt a$$e$ that make the calls. You will be in my thoughts with good wishes. Also ~REALLY amazing about our names being so much akin.
Getting repeated calls (once a week, maybe more; I'm not the only one who answers the phone) offering Seniors a call-for-help button. I waited to the end and pushed the button to Opt Out, but still get calls.
This number called at 2:00pm today. Another recorded message for some medical alert device. I've gotten tons of calls from this service from different numbers and I always hit "9" to "opt out." Apparently this doesn't work, so it's time to report these numbers each time. Hopefully this will stop these calls.
