Here's the answer to all our prayers. I found this on a site I posted a telemarketer's number at. I tried it and it WORKS! I put the tones at the beginning of my phone greeting about three months ago and in the last three weeks have had "ZERO" calls. Whover posted that "THANK YOU, THANKI YOU". Here's what I found:
Telemarketers almost exclusively use autodialers to make their calls. One out of a thousand will have live reps doing the dialing. When these dialers connect (you answer the phone) they first listen for any tones generated. If no tones are detected they then transfer the call to one of the reps in a call center. If the autodialer hears the 3 beeps from dialing a "DISCONNECTED" number, the number that was just dialed is automatically "REMOVED" from their list. Below is a link that has this tone plus the verbal message. You DO NOT need the verbal message. Download or copy the "DISCONNECTED" MP3 or WAV file to your desktop. Create or change the greeting you have when someone calls you and you're not available. At the VERY BEGINNING of your message place the 3 tones (NOT THE VOICE MESSAGE) then continue with your usual or normal greeting. The autodialer will hear the tones and BINGO, your number will be removed since they think it's a disconnected number. DONE. In a few weeks you will be removed from all or most of the lists. Of course you may have to explain the tones to the callers you DO want to speak to but that's a small tradeoff. Pass this info on to anyone you know that gets junk calls or even help post this on these websites. If you continue getting calls after reading this, it's your "OWN" fault! END JUNK CALLS.
Hey Dee Dee Dee Berry!!! They are not checking this site for your messages retard!!! Why are people so stupid?? Truly it is quite saddening.
Anyways. It is Santander which is a Financial Company in China (of all the damn countries) and they have taken over Drive Financial / Traid Financial / Fireside Bank. They now own your car loan if you had one with any of the previous companies, not sure who else they have purchased or merged with.
They only call you when you don't pay the bill. Even one day late will start their harassing phone calls even up until midnight. They never leave a message.
They have a major business office in North Richland Hills, Texas on Rufe Snow Drive.... Funny thing is, yesterday they were outside having "employee appreciation day" and had all types of food vendors, a mobile DJ and carnival rides.....is this where all my interest is going? LMAO
They took over HSBC car accounts. Now notification, except a quick blurp. At first they were great, but I guess they sold to China, now they are a pain in the butt.
