If you actually call that same number back (805-897-1183), an answering machine picks up and says a bunch of stuff, but they say at the end that if you no longer want them calling you to just leave your phone number as the message. I haven't gotten any more calls since I did that. Hope that helps!
CallerID shows Santa Barba, CA. Its real annoying. They call at least twice a day, and one of the calls is always just before 9 P.M. They never leave a message. This started several weeks ago. I never pick up the phone.
Wish it was always this easy to get off call lists!
Just got off the list for ALL of Telefund nonprofit clients by calling the main number (617) 482-6882. Spoke to a LIVE PERSON who very quickly and professionally just asked for my number not even my name.
Apparently they're happy to get numbers off the list ASAP. They use their nonprofits clients' call lists to get more money from existing donors. They don't make money talking to angry donors.
Also heard they are not technically telemarketers since they get numbers from people you've "done business with".
This number calls my phone at least 2 a day almost everyday I'd say. One voice mail left is some kind of credit card you sign up for. It doesn't leave voice mails every time.
