Call came over my cell and I never take part in these types of calls, I was feeling patriotic and took the survey. At the end of the automated survey a male came on the line, introduced himself as a 'cruise specialist' and said that he could not hear me. I said, "awe... y'all tricked me!" he chuckled, said he'd call back and then promptly hung up. How is it that he heard me call him out but not 'hello'?
Got a call on my cell from this number, too. I didn't answer but called right back. It IS for a political survey. The fragmented pre-recording I heard said that the survey had now expired (Really!?! They had just called me only 5 minutes before!) and I could press 1 if I wanted to opt out of all future surveys. I pressed 1, but it's been my experience low-lives like these don't give a care and will call again. So I'm blocking their number just to be safe.
Same thing here. They called, I didn't answer, and they didn't leave a message.
Just for all those talking about the DNC list, there's been a recent amendment to it allowing certain agencies to call. I think these include political parties and charities.. BUT no one is allowed to call using automated operators. If you did get a call from these people and answered and ended up talking to a robot, go to:
https://complaints.donotcall.gov/Mobile/complaint/complaintcheck.aspx?panel=2
Or just go to: www.donotcall.gov and follow the link to file a complaint.
And you can report them to the DNC agency directly. If they get enough complaints, they'll look into the company and can shut them down, or make them use real people (hint: even if they can still do business but have to use real people, you're MUCH less likely to get a all from them. They won't be willing to pay that much for real people to do the work..)
I plan on doing it anyway because there's enough evidence here for me to assume that I would have gotten a robot had I answered. Hope this helps!
just got a call from this number on my cell phone. did not answer. i never get solicitation calls (on the DNL for years), and i am not affiliated with any political party, so this is quite confusing...
