Although well thought out solutions, doing all that reporting and calling and writing is a collossal waste of time because it's ineffective. The DNC Registry is a joke, contacting the FCC is not as straightforward as it is described here, doing all of that is just wasting more valuable time. My suggestion is : If you don't recognize the number, don't answer the phone nor call back; if you answer and it's not a call you were expecting, hang up. Write the number down for future use and then erase the number.
I dumped the service 6-8 months ago. Why would they think I'd *ever* plan to reinlist ? DTV is second only to Comcast in it's obnoxious unending quest for cash. Ignore them.
