I receive multiple calls per day from (404) 941-8985. When I do grab the phone, they don't say anything and hang up after a few seconds. VERY annoying.
The Georgia phone company thats allowing this abuse of the rest of us should be held accountable ! They know where the calls are coming from and who is paying that bill ! In fact this could be the one things the ACLU attorneys could do that would really matter, we are being harassed and being deprived of peace and quiet in our own homes by these phone wielding hooligans because we own phones. I really belive our rights are being stomped on ! We are tired of this abuse !
Texas Comms Technician - I am with you! These calls are a ridiculous waste of our time, disrupt our lives and just generally give me headaches! Pain in the you-know-what .. wish there was more I could do to shut these callers down!
I called and used their opt-out (press 1 when it answers, then leave a message with the phone number you want them to remove from their list.) When I called the number, it said "Majority Opinion Research," so it's apparently not covered under the National Do Not Call Registry:
"*Reminder:Even if your number is registered, charities, political organizations, and telephone surveyors may continue to call you. Companies with which you do business may also continue to call, unless you have asked them to stop calling you. If you have asked them to stop calling, please keep a record of the date you made the request and include that information in the comment section of any complaint you submit against that company. Click Here for more information about the companies that may continue to call the numbers on the Registry.
Debt collectors may also continue to call you whether your number is on the Registry or not. If you have a complaint about a debt collector, please Click Here to file your complaint. For more information about your rights regarding debt collectors Click Here."
