They left a message on my voicemail saying just "contact us at 213-237-3737". I see from posts above that it is LA Times. I've also been getting e-mail from them recently.
I've been getting these annoying calls from this 2132373737 number for a couple of weeks now, since i canceled my subscription. and it was a pain to deal with these stupid, rude people from L.A. Times, not only it took me forever to cancel the subscription, but they wouldn't stop calling from these 1-800 or private or this 213 numbers....i actually had to file a complaint on Better Business Bureau. It was a PAIN!!!
I found this page because LA Times has been calling me every day, multiple times a day. I only subscribed originally because some kid trying to fundraise came to door. A huge mistake - I cannot get them to leave me alone. I did not renew when my original subscription expired and they seriously called me daily for weeks begging me to renew - which I did. The paper goes right in the garbage for me because I read the NY Times. They continued to send me the paper even though the subscription expired and they did not have an active credit card on file. When the daily phone calls began, I called and made it very clear I did not want the paper, and don't want the phone calls. They said I had a balance of just over $3. I said - for what? I didn't authorize renewal, I paid in full for my last subscription, you have my address - I've received no bill, no explanation. The service rep said she'd clear my account and I owed nothing. Well, then I get a call two days later - threatening, angry, intimidating guy literally harassing me for not paying this $3. I'm telling you, this phone call was frightening. I called LAT customer service to complain - very sorry, etc. You'll never get a call again. Got another call that day. I call LAT customer service AGAIN - and again, so sorry, you owe nothing, you'll never get a call again. They said if I get another phone call from LAT to call the police! Well, guess what, got another call again first business day later. I HATE THE LA TIMES!!!
Receive calls from this number, often it's a recording, the rest of the time it's a live person...shocking, I know. They are usually rude, and when I do accidentally answer, I am vague with them until they get frustrated and hang up... The rest of the time I ignore the call. Annoying? YES!!! I am on the verge of changing my number... but whatever! Here's a tip from my old buddy Seinfeld, if you do manage to get a live person who is hard to understand or just plain rude, tell them, "It's not really a good time, can I have your home number and I'll call you back later"...Hahaha, it's sure to tick them off.
