Received my first call from this number today; no message. They will be added to my blocked numbers list. I'm old school and still have a landline; thankfully, my Panasonic cordless phone allows me to input numbers (up to 30 on the model I have) that I want to block. I am loathe to give these callers my number in an effort to stop them from calling for fear they'll turn around and sell it. My number is registered with the Do Not Call registry... but short of reporting each and every call- a real pain with the number of calls I'm receiving- there doesn't seem to much I can do. :(
Hey - anyone out there who is on the National Do Not Call Register - when you get these calls - file a complaint with the DO NOT CALL.GOV website! I am tired of Nielsen Ratings, and those annoying "press 1 to speak with a representative or @ to be removed from our calling list" people. We've talked with people ask politely asked to be removed, and they hang up on us. We've pressed 2 and they keep calling back. We've informed them, nicely, that we're on the do not call list, and they could care less. So, I either report them to the website, or ask them for a call back # in case we get disconnected, then tell them they are calling into a police department...see how fast they hang up again!!! What is the purpose of this registry if telemarketers buy old lists and keep calling???
