Another in a long list of numbers that continue to call my cell phone and will not leave messages. However, the past couple weeks they have been allowing the voicemail message to play and then hang up. Therefore, it appears that I have a voicemail and have to clear it off my cell phone. ANNOYING!!!!
I called back from my work number, and "Samantha" answered -- same person who answered a few other numbers that have been calling me -- 215-665-1380, 313-277-2695, and 201-793-8174.
You can tell almost immediately when you call the number that the call is being forwarded (clicking sounds). I will add this to my list of numbers that I continue to report to the ftc -- donotcall.gov. I thought it might be useless but kept reporting every single call from each number, but I read last week that the ftc is closing some companies down because of the magnitude of complaints. Maybe I am doing my part after all!! Please, EVERYONE report EVERY single call you receive from these companies, even if you receive more than one a day, report each individual call every time they occur.
Got 2 calls to my work phone this morning. There's a recorded message asking to, "Please hold," and it repeats it a few more times with clicking noises in between, and then it finally hangs up. The second time, I recognized it and just hung up. I didn't call the number to find out who was calling.
The call is from First Financial Bank. They're real jerks in the first place, and they're real good at tricking people into "owing" thousands of dollars. I had a credit card with them and was paying my monthly payment of $10 using my debit card. Well, they charge you $9 to use another card... so they were adding another 30+ onto my bill for not making the minimum payment. Because technically I was only paying $1 a month. ($10 - the $9 charge = $1)
