Have received 4 calls from 1-718-569-7903 left as voicemails in the last 2 weeks from Agway Energy Group "regarding my natural gas and electric accounts’ and wanting me to call this number, 1-800-968-3504 . I do not have accounts with them. I’ve never had accounts with them. It's always the same woman who identifies herself as Wilma Sipes or Stipes, sounding exactly the same each time which leads me to believe it's a recording. I called back after the third call, was put on hold after I gave the 2131 extension, and then got a man who was trying to sell me the Agway plan. I requested to be removed from their calling list, he said something like 'well you folks voted to be able to chose your utility service' I said again I'm not interested, he started the hard sell again, again I requested to be removed from their list and I hung up. Just received the 4th call today, October 4, 2012, same old Wilma again. So annoying!!!!! What a SCAM!!! I’m posting this to as many of this type of reporting sites as I can!
I've seen this number come up on the caller ID several times. Every time I've answered, there's a 5-7 second delay before the line goes dead. Except this last time. A man finally said "Hello, I need to speak with the account holder for your NYSEG bill". I've heard this sales pitch before, but not quite this urgent. He stated he NEEDED to speak to the account holder like there was a problem, and that's the bit that annoys me. Agway isn't at all linked to New York State Electric and Gas, but they make it sound like there's a problem to keep you on the line.
Hung up after he requested the numbers and info on my bill. I have clients I'm actively working with and don't have time for this analytical sales pitch about numbers. He called back 20 minutes later.
I am tired of Agway Energy calling every day during the day and about 7:PM. I will like for it to stop. I pick up the phone and
a machine automatically will hang up. This is annoy because I have to stop what I am doing to pick up the phone.
Im tired of these phone calls, they are concerned with my con edison bills and $5 deals. like nah, i don't pay a lot for my bill anyway. these people call like 5-10 times a day. How do i opt out from this curse?
