I don't pick up the home phone unless I know the number that's calling. This number has kept calling for the last 3-1/2 hours every five minutes, and of course doesn't leave a message.
Repeated phone calls to my business number asking to update their directory listing. Woman with Indian accent. It is a call center because there is often a delay from the time I answer the call to the time someone on the other end starts to speak so it is obviously a computer doing the dialing and then someone in the call center (probably in India) picks it up once they know someone has answered on the other end.
Last several days our business keeps getting numerous calls from this number as well - and as a business we have to pick up when the phone rings even if we don't recognize the number because it could be a customer - but after the first time I guess we could let it ring - but still frustrating to keep telling these people not to call back!
These people called the other day and said they wanted to verify business information. I asked where they were calling from and they said "searchgreen.net". I looked it up and there is "searchgreen.net" and "search-green.net" so I'm not sure exactly which one they are. On 5/3/11, I told them to not call us again. The office was closed for a few days but when I got back in today, I checked the caller ID and saw that they had called four more times. They never left a message. This afternoon they called again and I went ballistic on them telling them that I had already asked them not to call again and that I was reporting them to the FCC.
