Got a call from this and also 214-396-5551. I finally answered two weeks later to tell them to take me off the list. The woman said her records show that I am connected to a man I dated in college 18 years ago. I am now freaked out. I spent six months sleeping on couches and in scary hooker hotels to get away from this man. I have changed my name for the same reason. And yet they still got my cell number. I have spent a lot of money to ensure that my web presence is nonexistent. They said nothing about school. I think multiple companies use this umbrella corporate name to conduct business. They also contacted my mother who has moved, married, and has a new last name asking the same things. I just want to know who this is and how they found me. My name change records are sealed and I moved three hundred miles away.
They called me too! Found them at: http://www.puc.texas.gov/industry/communicati ... DB1245460900001
Turns out Peerless is a phone company (like ATT). Customers who use thier service can have the name "Peerless" show up on the called ID.
If you go to that web page above you will find numbers to contact them. I called the Chicago office and then hit option #2 (the "Nock"?) The gentelman who finally answered was VERY helpful and apologetic. He would not give me the name of the person in Texas but did put a block on my line so that they could no longer call me.
I rec'd the same solicitor call, so I called 1-888-382-1222 DO NOT CALL list and asked my number be removed from the list. Don't know if it works but I'm trying to get them to GO AWAY...the guy said something about online college courses, it was a lie.
