They hung up the first time I answered then called back wanted to speak with whoever was in charge of purchasing products for our manufacturing machines I asked him what products, he said he was not selling anything just wanted to ask some questions I told him we don't participate in over the phone research and he said because it's against company policy and I said yes it is. Then I kicked myself as I never answer anyone's questions with a "yes" because they may be recording me and used that against me to their advantage. I think they're wising up so they are rephrasing their questions to elicit a yes response.
After reading the comments and having the same problems with them, next time they call me I will take the survey and give them all the worst answers possible.
these idiots called 4 times yesterday. Left no messages. Today have called 3 times and the last time I did pick it up - said "stupid people - QUIT calling!".
So far, they haven't called back.
Go to this website: www.maximumresearch.com. Under the FAQ tab, click "Recieved a call? Under the Do not Call website information there is a box to opt out of further calls. Could be a scam to get more numbers, but it also could be a legit way to stop the calls.
Maximum research called and asked to talk to someone who was most knowledgeable about our xray machines. We are a general contractor...we do not have xray machines. I started laughing and it must have hurt her feelings because she got belligerant.
