Called me at 11:52 am, 11:53 am, and 11:54 am today. I didn't answer. No voice messages. Calls Mr every day, minimum of twice a day. One time I answered and nobody said anything. Extremely frustrating nuisance.
If you want any mortgage company to stop calling you all you need to say is "Take me off the list", once you do that the lead they are using to call you must be removed from there system. If they don't 90% of those conversations are recorded due to the CFPB, and if it happens repeated mention that it'll stop. Telling them that you are "Not interested" is not a way to get removed off this list, neither is picking ups and hand ups, straight to VM. That is viewed by most companies as a opportunity to work the lead harder. However, just as a note to that if for some reason another lead is generated they will call you again. In which case you have to repeat the process.
Extra leads get generated by mortgage companies when you have a tri-merge credit report (what mortgage companies use, but also happens with cars and boats) is pulled. While this might seem like a dirty practice, its actually something that you usually agreed to within your mortgage contract when you bought your house. Other reasons can be from you going to a place like lending tree, its asking for your information for a reason. So if you don't want calls don't put in really info.
