My son and I both are receiving unwarranted calls from Viking Magazine. Their caller ID# is 515-635-3013 and the # they leave in their vm is 855-667-2675. It makes no difference which # you call - these people just don't take no for an answer. When I returned their call, "Cindy" got belligerent with me when I refused to identify myself and answered me with "ok then, I'll just look you up" and hanged up on me. Well, Cindy, that works both ways. If she hadn't gotten so snotty I would have dropped it then and there. Instead I got on the computer and checked out where the number was coming from. When my son called (I am listed as his 2nd contact #) the young lady informed him that there was nothing wrong with his account and she didn't know why they'd been calling him. Either way, I know for a fact my son canceled or paid up any magazine subs he had with them and they were told not to contact/harass him any longer. These people just need to be put out of business - plain and simple. I guess I should have gotten suspicious immediately when I couldn't understand the name of the company "Franklin in the finance department" was calling from. Live and learn! Buyer beware - especially with these people! Everything everyone else is saying is absolutely true.
Viking Magazine - asked me to call back on a toll-free number. They are high pressure magazine salesmen who promise you a shopping spree and hundreds of dollars in prizes for subscribing to magazines. Frequently the bills for the magazine are many times greater than the prizes they've promised you and you find yourself receiving daily phone calls from these people.
this number called me under the name for caller ID, ankeny IA for great american readers i guess they changed the name so they wouldnt be found out i read others write about vikings mag. why havent these sick ppl been shut down?
They call often, sometimes multiple times a day, saying that they are collecting for magazines that were cancelled months ago. They will not take no for an answer and blatantly accuse us of lying and trying to steal services. They say that the order was never cancelled (which the sales company probably did not do, deliberately, when they were told to).
Attempts to call 515-635-3013 to get it stopped just gets you transferred to voice mails that never get returned and they will not disclose who they are or give you an address to send legal cease and desist documents to.
we are on dnc and they just started calling several times a day. We didn't intentionally answer them, but was expecting another call and barely made it to the phone. then some woman ask for someone else and I ask her name and she mumbled something like tamara or tara or?? couldn't make it out. I ask her 3 times her name and she kept asking for someone else. sounded like she is one of those Islamic terrorists accents. the caller id just says "Iowa"
