calls all the time, I never answered I thought It would be for my bf bcuz he has a HSBC cc. bf answered once and got lion roaring and other weird noises. after hanging up bf called HSBC customer service they had no idea what it could be, all they could do is report it to the supervisor. we still get calls.
Folks receiving these crap calls may like to also read at this link as well: http://800notes.com/Phone.aspx/1-616-597-4101 and vice-versa. You may want to call HSBC's HQs at 1-847-564-5000 and ask to speak with Michael Haynes. Michael is some sort of an Executive with this crap outfit. Another Caller ID number this crap outfit uses is: 571-283-6424. But besides pursuing things like your Stat's Attorney General's office in order to register formal complaints (this has nothing to do with the do-not-call-registry, this has to do with requesting they stop calling and then if they continue 3 more time you have their butts cold)I highly recommend that you get yourself a freebie account with GrandCentral.com (A Google owned company) and use the phone number they will supply to you (in your own area code) on ALL consumer business related transactions (credit cards, utilities, cable companies, etc, etc ... bascially anyone except friends and relatives who you really want to hear from. Put your new GrandCentral.com number on a personal/business card if you can't recall it ... and give that number out first in order to defeat these crap companies who share your regular number with 3rd parties at their whim, OR who have been known to lose or otherwise mishandle your personal data.
we dont like it either. its ridiculous already! we believe these messages to be subliminal, so be careful listening to them!!! we couldnt even call back becuz it asked for an access code. what a joke, when they can call, but you cant call back?!?!
