It began this morning at 9 AM. So far two calls, the one at 9 and another one at 10 AM. Last time I had a situation like this one in which a number with just the area code and a bunch of zeros began to call day and night I contacted Comcast about the harrassing calls and they stopped. I will wait for a while and if the calls continue I will contact COMCAST about it. By the way, I am about to drop my home phone service because of the number of calls I receive from these unknown people on daily basis. The fact that I am on the DNC list and that I file almost daily complaints with tha FTC does not help. The "credit card services" and others keep on calling on daily basis.
Hey, I don't know if this'll work-- haven't tried it yet, myself-- but I just read somewhere (researching this same annoying phone number) that if you turn off your answering machine and let the phone ring for a while, you can answer it and get a real person. When that happens, you can listen to the message, say whatever you want, etc. (Maybe that'll get the to finally *stop*!) It sounds like this number may be associated with some sort of political messages/polling. Makes sense for my problem, at least, as we do have some elections coming up. But good grief! There's no better way to get on my bad side than *this* nonsense!
Does anybody know how long this lasts? We've had it going on for 4 days now, constant calling and nobody is there. We tried to just let the answering machine take a message but they leave no message and keep calling. We now have turned our phone off completely and have everybody calling us on our cell phones until whoever is calling stops.
anouid.... We've tried answering the phone, nobody is there... it just hangs up.
