If you are getting harassing phone calls from 401-427-0929, contact Paetec Communications at 877-472-3832 and request that the phone calls cease. I did and spoke with a very polite customer service representative who said he would put my phone number and a 'do not call list'. Whether this works remains to be seen, but it's a start. Paetec is not the caller; they are the 'phone company' which provides telecommunication services to the caller. Perhaps if Paetec gets enough phone calls like mine, it will decide this customer is not worth the aggravation. Of course, the customer will then find another telecommunication company. Oh, well!
Just got a call from this number myself. A man with a (seemingly?) indian accent started out by saying that he wasn't trying to sell me anything, then asked if I had smoke detectors (I do). He then asked if I checked the batteries (I do, religiously). When he then asked if they made a loud noise when there was a fire, I had enough and hung up.
First call was "Unavailable".
Lady with strong accent offered free installation of GE Security alarm system.
Very hard to understand and kept repeating the same phrases over and over.
Claimed "one of 10 homeowners in local area" selected.
When I hung up on them, she called back, this time with caller ID, and had the nerve to ask why I hung up.
Calling on behalf of something like "M S Alarms" in Providence, RI. Alarm system is "free, no catch, cost you not even a penny", but there is a monthly monitoring charge of ~$30/mo. Wanted to have a "local installer" contact me.
Ugh. No thanks.
My num is on Do Not Call list, will report.
