Multiple calls
Complaint
Dwight Jones
Country: United States
I get this phone call on my cell at least 5 times a week. All from different phone numbers, different states but with the same message. "Hello - this is _______ from Cardholder Services". When i wait the line and ask their company name they hang up on me. Now, I'm on the national Do Not Call list. Does this system even work?

The robocalls are made to sift through and find likely victims to hand off to "closers".
They have to improve the odds to make it pay, or they wouldn't be making them.
The robocalls cost them virtually nothing, but tie up their people, and they can't swindle someone else.
They are calling and harassing many more people than they have closers, so if even a fraction of those who got harassed, harassed back, they would choke on the wasted time.
Act like a "mark", use an alias, pretend you have a bunch of CC debt ($10k gets them interested), and ask lots of dumb questions about what they will do.
Waste more of their people time than they are wasting of yours.

If the Republicans are serious about closing down useless federal agencies, I would suggest the FCC for that list. I’ve sent a half dozen complaints to them, reminding them in each case that this company has already been cited by them and continues to violate the law. Not only have I been on the Federal Do-Not-Call registry since it’s creation, I have NEVER owned a credit card. So there is no reason why this company should be calling me.
I will continue to send complaints to the Do-Not-Call Registry AND the FCC, hoping to embarrass them into action, every time Cardholder Services calls me. And I will start keeping copies of my complaints to send to my Congressmen in hopes of them forcing the FCC to do it’s job. What the rest of you do is up to you. And if someone decides to organize this group for a march on Washington and the FCC, let me know and I'll be there.
