This number calls me at least 5 times a day. I've told them everyone to take me off the call list but they continue to call at the worst times, it wakes my kids up and my Husband up and they are exhausted for school/work.

I think this # has called before. In one week I probably receive two or three calls every day like this, even though I'm on the "Do Not Call" list, (Which in my opinion is just a big joke!). The Answering Machine picked up and there was a lot of background noise and voices, as in a Call Center but no one said anything then they hung up. I'm so sick and tired of having the peace in my own home invaded so rudely. I never answer a call if I don't know who it is but I'm 70 and have health problems. Sometimes when the phone rings it scares me and I feel like I'm having a heart attack. The peace and quiet of a person' s home should NOT be open to phone calls from anyone we do not know. It is akin to letting strangers walk into your house and invade your peace and privacy. I would NEVER buy anything from these kinds of parasites anyway. With the internet, we can find anything we want when and if we need something, we don't need or deserve this kind of invasive annoyances.

It appears that the majority of people who think the Do Not Call list is "a joke" definitely have extreme difficulty understanding certain concepts requiring at least moderate cognitive capability.
Exactly how is the DNC list a joke?
Legitimate telemarketers use it to prevent calls to registrants. Just think - if there were no such list, you would be getting calls from BOTH legitimate and scam "telemarketers".
The DNC list is NOT a call blocker! If you thought it was, you are very much mistaken.
The DNC list does not apply to charities, political calls, surveys, debt collectors or companies with which you did business in the last 18 months.
The DNC list is ignored by spammers and scammers, and those criminals usually use VOIP or burner phones, and cannot be easily traced. Kristi Thompson of the FCC explained that it can take her anywhere from five to ten subpoenas to trace a single robocall back to its origin.
Is there ANY law that is 100% effective in preventing criminals from disobeying it? If a criminal disobeys a law, is that law a joke?
The FTC penalizes organizations located in the USA that violate DNC provisions, but only if those organizations are identified! Have you done your part to identify your callers?
The DNC organization does not sell its list to non-registered telemarketers. Spammers and scammers can get your number without obtaining the DNC list!
All this information, and more, is available on the DNC site, for those who have the cerebral capacity to read and understand. Apparently you do not qualify, but prefer to mislabel things that you do not understand.
If you want more protection than provided by the DNC list, get a call blocker app, device, or service, and learn how to use it correctly. Try a little self-responsibility!
