Got a call from this number - [***] robo-dialer. So, I called them back and endured 60 seconds of commercials but was eventually connected to a real person. I'm sure the person I spoke with is a very nice person and I sincerely hope he finds employment with another company that does not utilize robo-dialing.
I asked for the company's name which he provided: Reliable Places SEO/http://reliableplaces.com/. From all appearances, this company seems legit. HOWEVER, we will NEVER do business with a company that uses robo-dialing. Period.
What marketing idiot thought up this strategy anyway? I can't see how completely pissing off your target demographic could be good for business. If you can't expend the energy to have a real person call me, don't expect to get anything other than vitriol in response!
JERKS robocalled about updating my free Internet listing. Well said "OhNoYouDidn't." There possibly may be legitimate service out there but they will not get any business from me because I am totally turned off by phone calls. I get a coujple dozen per week from NEW telemarketers in addition to the repeats from the previous JERKS. If it is not a customer number in my marketing telephone area code, I don't answer. In fact, I often disconnect the answering machine until they stop ringing.
Jerks. I didn't pick up, they didn't leave a message.
What competent business, in this day and age, really believes that even a semi-intelligent human being will respond to, let alone buy from, a company that does business using robo-dialling????? Idiots.
