This is an 'Award Claim Contest' soliciation Telemarketer. Live person wants to speak with the award winner,.... whole thing sounded bogus. We are a commercial business, and on the DNC list. Just wasting our time & theirs.
Incredibly rude telemarketer - who slammed phone in my ear when I told her to put us on our do not call list. Said, We do not have a do not call list... If you don't want to be called, don't request it." SLAM.
Called back to see what company this was calling [no company name other than Columbia, TN ... She slammed 3 more times...
Then called from cell and she told me [not knowing this was me] her name was Darrius and it was the AWARDS CENTER. I told her who I was and she said, "Stop messing with my phone." and slammed again.
This telemarketer called to say my husband was 1 of 3 grand prize finalist and wanted him to call Darrius back. When I asked what company I should tell him was calling, she immediately hung up on me. We are also on the do not call list!
Told me I won a brand new Ford Explorer, after entering a contest! I asked what contest I entered to win this vehicle and she said, "I don't know, but it must have been something you entered!" After listening to other items I had allegedly won, I asked the question, "How much is this going to cost me?" This, uh..., lady, became VERY defensive. I was then told, "We will give you the directions to the front door to pick up your prizes." I said I am not interested, to which I was told (with attitude I might add), "Well, we will call you back next week." She was the rudest, and just maybe, the dullest bulb in the box, I have ever encountered. They must have an endless supply of expensive prizes to give away. Oh yes, it must be out of the goodness of their heart. Anyway, I guess she didn't know I am a retired cop. Think I'll contact a few freinds. What idiots....
