So far, this is the second call from this company within a week.  The call tonight came in at 8:04 pm
Caller ID says "Lester, Inc." and the phone number is 606-833-0105. When my answering machine picked up, the caller hung up - same as last time.

I am on the Do Not call list.

    Lester has called my home 7 times in the last week.
    I've been on the Do Not Call Registry since 2004, so what they are doing is simply wrong.
    Everyone should file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission. Make sure your phone is registered with the FTC, then file your complaint at  https://www.donotcall.gov/default.aspx

    File a complaint for EVERY phone call.

    Also, send them a letter for EVERY phone call. The address is
    200 Harris Rd, Greenup, KY 41144-7681 \

    Help the FTC build a case against the pests! They will only stop their practices when it is not economically feasible to do so.

    I have received about 2 calls a day at work, when the call goes to voice mail there is no message left.  This a place of business and they should not be calling this number

    Yeah, they've been harassing my phone, too. Sometimes 2 or 3 times a day. They DO leave voice-mail, but never includes anyone saying anything, just random sounds.

    Housemouse, you might want to take a little more time the next time you sign up for ANYthing online. That time should be used to read the fine print. As long as you agree to let either the outfit you're signing up with or their 'affiliates' or 'business partners' "share information" and perhaps contact you, you have just given scumsters like Lester, Inc. explicit permission to phone you. At which point you'll find the national DNC list no protection at all. I think it's sad, but that's the way it works. Note that the DNC also doesn't cover charities nor any political outfit. So much for the 'protection'.

    I suspect these folks are trying to solicit funds for the university two of my daughters attended. I suppose this is really legal. Although they are alumnii, they are not yet in the position to be philanthropic. In any case, if the phone rings and no one responds IMMEDIATELY when I answer, I hang up. It works for all solicitors that use autodialers.

    Lester, Inc it says on my 'caller id', but when I answer, there isn't anyone there...  They call every day - how do I get them to stop?

    I too have the same problem. They show up on caller id as Lester Inc. When I pick up the phone, there's no answer. I dialed the a number and they said they were a "garbled" company. To paraphrase "If the caller id showed up on your phone we are calling on behalf of one of our clients". They never identified who the client was. "You can reach us at 606-833-0102 x7017."

    HTH,

    Jim

    I have been receiving calls from these lowlifes too.  According to a search I did on Intelius.com, they are located in Russel, Kentucky.  How do they GET people's phone numbetrs in the first place?  I have never heard of this company and certainly did NOT do business with them.  Dana, I HIGHLY recommend that you tell your Mom to stop violating the Do NOt Call Registry rules or you are going to end up visiting her in JAIL>  I have already reported her SIX times and will continue to do so as long as she her company keeps calling me!

    If it's such a great company, then why don't they leave us alone?

    If you're on the do not call list, then file a complaint with them every single time you get a call.

    Be an American, take a free mag lol
    ok ppl heres the low down.  First these lesters hangs up on your answering machine because its a computer dialer...duh theres no number to call back on a computer daler.  Also acording to the laws of dnc you have to be the person asked for and you yourself must say " PLEASE! place me on your Do Not Call List" If u dont answer oviously they are gonna keep calling trying to get a hold of you because companys like..... www.maintenancesolutionsmag.com and other free publications hire lester inc to call you.  The names and numbers can come from a variety of resources. exp. trade expo's products bought and refferals from other employees who recieve free publications.  I agree the calls arent the greatest but these callers are making 7 freakin dollars an hour.  I understands ppls frustrations but i believe if people have the right knowledge of what is going on then you might understand.  Use the free magazines for a fire starter or a coaster or something for heavens sake, it takes 2 mins to update information lesters or the companies they work for allready have for a free magazine. Trust me, only about one out of every ten calls the person lesters is calling actually doesnt want the free mag,that has info. about their career or industry.probably about 5 out of 10 calls the secretary's or receptionist just say they dont want it when a lot of the people already recieve the magazine totally FREE!!! and honestly about 3 out of every 10 calls the person asked for wants the free mag and tae 2 mins out of there day to answer maybe four or five questions. If anything your helping a struggling state in eastern ky employee about 100 people with a steady job.  LOL with our economy how it is be an american and take a FREE magazine to keep people like me employeed.
    P.S.
    I cant speak for everyone at lesters inc because there are obviously a high turn around rate of employement at a call center but when someone tells me they dont want it i rebuttel the leasd twice and if they still dont want a free mag i reject it in the computer and i dont know what happens to your number after that. If the lead person tells me to " place them on their do not call list" i do so immediatly and turn it in to a supervisor.....
    I truely am sorry for all your greviencies but thing about how many ppl work there (100) on a computer dialer and there are only about four pages of complaints on this well known web site in allmost two years.

    they probably don't leave messages because they are violating the 'do not call' registry and don't want to leave evidence of same.

    I worked at lester inc for a whole year and a half. The ignorant people have to understand that the computer calls u so if u are getting calls its not the people it is the computer. So get over it. Lester is a job just like u have a job to take care of your family. We don't sell anything!! So before u start complaining  know ur facts.

    There seems to be no way to stop their calls. Does anyone know the home phone of any of their officers? If so a few 2:00AM phone calls from pay phones might provide the wake call and let them know that their phone calls are non-productive and a nuisance.
