If you have Cox Cable phone service push *60 after the call and listen for the prompts. It will tell you to push #01# and that will block the last call received. I use this a lot. I just blocked Western States.
Another day, another scam. This company sent me a postcard a few days ago saying it was time to service my A/C system, and today they called and hung up on my answering machine.
Just another stinking scam and violation of the (toothless) Do Not Call list!
Caller ID shows "WESTERN STATES" along with the phone number. You can keep your hands off of my A/C system. Call ignored. But I'm sure they'll try calling again. This was a previous annoying "regular," so I guess they have started up again with the nuisance calls.
It appears your understanding of the Do Not Call list is ... faulty. Here is a short summary of the facts, that might fit your intellect:
1. The DNC list is NOT a call blocker!
2. The DNC list is used by honest telemarketers, to avoid calling people who do not want to be called.
3. Scammers and spammers do not care ... those criminals call anybody.
4. The DNC list is NOT a call blocker! (Just in case you missed reading #1)
Here's a response that might fit your intellect (but it's probably way too advanced for you). The commenter was obviously complaining that the DNC registry is worthless, which it pretty much is. The FTC doesn't enforce it at all. Sure, Sears, General Motors, and IBM don't call, but every scammer on the planet does. The DNC registry was established in 2003 and I probably receive more unsolicited telemarketing calls than I did 12 years ago. Complaining to the FTC is a waste of time. Simple enough for you? I can post this again if your reading comprehension isn't equal to your inflated ego. Now go back to your job as a shoe salesman at K-Mart.
