The DNC does work as its intended too! Sorry to burst your bubble on that. What it doesn't do is protect you from the scammers,frauds,extortionist - all law breakers. The telemarketers that do get caught running despite the dnc (law breakers also) do get caught up with fined, sometimes even shut down. You have to read over on the sites what is happening. These offices do not have the man power to solve these in a hour.. it isn't CSI on TV. There are few people working there and a whole country to try and take care of. The DNC is for reporting telemarketers, you need to file reports with other agency's for the other types of calls.
I blocked these people over a month ago, but they've changed their numbers and are calling again.
These people call whether you're on the Do Not Call list or not. Doesn't that suggest something about them? Don't bother to press 9 to be removed from their predictive dialer, they won't. Much better not to answer calls whose Caller ID you don't recognize.
