This is about the fourth in a series of calls from the 971 area code. I do not answer the calls but this one came over caller id as "V01231718420". My answering machine picked up the tail end of lowering interest rates and if I pressed 3, I could be removed. Robot dialing should be outlawed and these companies be put out of business. If they are financial institutions that took federal bail outs, they should be heavily fined.
I have been receiving calls from 971-217-9595 and every time I pick up it hangs up ~ when I call back it says the number is no longer in service.... Sick of it and blocked the calls but beware it's annoying.........
Starting in March 2012 I began receiving robot calls from the same telemarketer that used the following rotating set of numbers (they call every 45 minutes monday through friday, never on weekends).
I, too am very frustrated about these calls. The same exact thing will happen to me as well...ignoring it does not help! It should be totally illegal to constantly call a cell phone when they have somehow acquired the number from another source...blocking it now! I just kept thinking it was someone important...
