Called me the 11th, ask for the man or woman of the house. Asked her what she was selling. Unborn children or pro-life or whatever. Told her I was a supporter of the do not call list and she should subscribe to that. Hung up on me. Called me again today (12th). Answered with "DO NOT CALL ME AGAIN!" Blocking them now. Something about a self righteous zealot that really turns me off....
ROBO CALL , never leaves message, Before NOON today , I filed complaint on another number, also using
"GOOGLE" ............I am registered on the ....DO NOT CALL LIST.....
Second time I've answered this # with the same results. The caller is a robot.
When asked pointedly "are you a robot?" the voice said no, then apologized for the confusion, claiming to be using a computer generated voice as she had no voice of her own. The voice then asked if I would like to be connected to a supervisor who might be able to better explain. I said yes.
I waited... the voice soothingly encouraged me "just one more second.." Ultimately, I was connected with yet another robot. Voice Mail.
I still have no idea what they are selling.
Fact 1) The DNC list CLEARLY does not work, everyone should knows this by know, it's a government program that doesn't function like all or most programs they generate.
Fact 2) Filing a complaint with the FCC does not work, a total waste of time; done that.
Fact 3) Having an unlisted phone will not help you.
Fact 4) Asking/begging telemarketers to take you off their call list does not work!
Fact 5) No "class action" suits are filed and certainly, this is not a remedy. Many of these telemarketers are in other countries and out of the jurisdiction of the USA.
Fact 6) Complaining to the BBB is a corrupt organization that sells their ratings to the highest bidder.
QUIT BEING FRUSTRATED over Telemarketers-Scammers & Bill Collectors HOUNDING day after day!
*******DON'T GET MAD – HIT BACK!**********************
*******STOP BEING ANNOYED - STOP BEING A VICTIM*****
*******PURCHASE A CALL BLOCKING TELEPHONE!!!*******
Uniden and Panasonic make CALL BLOCKING telephones. They’re cheap - $40-$60 and they usually come with a 2nd wireless handset, and they work beautifully! These phones also block “PRIVATE”, “OUT OF AREA” and "UNKNOWN" calls!!!
Some phone companies include a *60 call block feature with their service………
Having fun with telemarketers. Tell them I am a Correctional Officer at a local prison. If a real person I tell them this is a prison and to never call back. It has worked several times. Also pretended to be a Chinese Restaurant and kept asking with a strong Chinese accent for their order. They hung up and never called. Then I used a real loud basketball whistle and blew it as hard as I could. They never called back. Creepy loud breathing worked also. The whistle worked the best. I could hear the guy scream and then hang up.
