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.
