"Me" posted on Sept 2007 research companies are exempt from the do not call list.
That's NOT true. Those companies will tell you the same thing, too. Look CLOSELY at the FTC code, and it does NOT say "research" companies are exempt. If you want to get specific - they'r soliciting for information. But in fact... government surveys and non-profit research are the ONLY exempt! I went head to head with a research CEO, and finally conceded I was correct.
Got a call from this number but they didn't leave a message. The call came in at 8:51pm. I did some research and found the website. It's http://fw-mi.com/ We are on the Do Not Call list, so I plan on filing a complaint.
I got a call on my cell from them but was in a meeting and could not answer. I called them back (I fail to see why people are afraid to call phone numbers they don't know?!?) and got a recording, "blah blah blah, PLEASE BE ADVISED THAT SURVEY COMPANIES ARE EXEMPT FROM THE DO NOT CALL LIST." I expect they'll call again. If so, I'll answer and see what the survey is about.
