Technically? This is a solicitation call {assuming it's legitimate, which it may be--but could as easily be a scam}.
Companies offering free 'promotional' service try to get around the 'do not call' registry by offering 'free' goods, installations and services. However, as any security service IS eventually seeking to sell you their service after the 'free installation' trial period, this IS a solicitation however indirect.
= they should not be calling anyone on the 'd.n.c.' registry ... [period]
Whether they really are affiliated with General Electric or 'G.E.' actually stands for something else, but that's what they hope you'll assume? I'm curious as to whether anyone who's actually opted to hear their sales-pitch out would post what they've heard.
My phone number is on the do not call registry. I do NOT want telemarketing calls. Upon research this is GE Home Security, not someone we do business with nor do we want calls from.
ID shows "URG". No message left. Now blocked. BEWARE: Google search of URG does result in sites dealing with energy stocks, but no direct link to GE. It also showed a collection agency, United Recovery Group. Some bad stories about their collection methods can be found on the web.
