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'?
Wow. These guys are sure busy calling this many people. If it is a political survey we'll probably be getting a lot of these calls. Is there anyway to stop them other than not answering? I don't answer my cell if it is a not on my contact list. Just wondering. It is a nuisance
Look, folks: a company may not call a phone number on the Do Not Call List, but they 'may' if for 1) political activities (polling, fundraising, etc) or 2) with your consent. They called you to meet requirement 1) , and when they informed you that you could win a cruise by participating, you just 'gave' them 2), and permission to sell your number. - You just knocked yourself off the do not call registry.
I don't condone this, but I've heard this company is in Marysville, WA, and that it might be possible to look up a couple of guys names 'Guido' and 'Bone Crusher' who would be willing to give THEM an offer 'too good to refuse'
It would be interesting to hear how it works out... I hope someone posts that information in this thread.
I got this call while at work. The only reason I answered it is because I have kids in Washington with that area code. When I did answer they hung up on me so not sure what it was about.
