It is 11:45 AM and they have called my phone 9 times since 8:30 AM. I am on a DNC registry, and have gone onto Verizon Wireless to block this number, but this is ridiculous! Nine times? In 3 hours? No message, it says "Kent, Washington" as the area called from. They can totally bite me, if I knew how to sue for harassment, I would do it in a heartbeat. This is ridiculous. Not to mention, I work at night (and am in treatment for breast cancer) so I don't sleep well, and an 8:30 AM call is like a 9-5'er getting a call at 4:00 AM. Also this is on my cell phone. Ugh!
16X today it is 5:07 PM CST. Called the Kent Washington Police department and they told me to report this number for harassment where I live. I am so sure that the Chicago Police dept has more things to do than run dowm a phone number in Kent Washington. I have called my phone carrier to ask them to block this number. My carrier can only block text messages. I was told they cannot block this number. The Chicago Police dept stated that it is not crime and that it is probably a robo automated number. I am registered on the do not call.gov list (so much for that). I don't know what else to do.
I've received about 9 calls over the past 3 days from this phone number. I did call it back and add my phone number to the do not contact list. It says to allow 24 hours for it to take effect. Over 24 hours later and I am still receiving phone calls. I've called back and re-added my ph# and tried to stay on the line to talk to a person to make sure my ph# is removed but there is no option to speak to a human. One time they called I did answer to tell them to stop calling but it was dead air and then a hang up. If they keep calling I will be reporting them to the police department as some people have done in the other comments.
