phone call harrassment
Complaint
Karen Inman
Country: United States
This scam has been operating here in Ohio for months. They won't respond to the number on the web. We are getting electronic messages 2 and 3 times a day. How may I get my phone number removed from these people? Karen Inman

Im doing my part.
Autodialers don't have to stop dialing when no agents are available, unfortunately, so it won't make a difference. The best thing to do is to report them a few times to DNC and FCC, then file a police report for harassment -- because it *is* harassment. Enough of those reports get made and someone will start listening, hunt them down (it can't possibly be that hard!), and put a stop to it.
I told their rep I did not have the card with me, and I would have to go get it. I kept him waiting a good 5 minutes, and he finally asked, “Are you sure you are looking for the card?” I replied that I hadn’t been looking for it at all, and I was on the Do Not Call List. He said angrily, “I bet you think that’s funny, don’t you?” I said it was funny as hell and that, if he didn’t want it to happen again, his organization should never call my number again. I think he hung up before the last part but he was obviously mad while I was not upset at all, so he got stressed and I didn’t. Keeping somebody on hold while you read the paper, work on the computer, or whatever is probably the rudest and most disrespectful thing you can do–worse than cursing them out (they just hang up) or telling them not to call you again (they just hang up).
The most effective thing might be to keep them holding for as long as possible while you "look" for the information.
I wish that C E O`s and all other creeps that enjoy pestering people including their family members all suffer the most severe trauma (fire,aids, clapp, cripple,invalid etc.)
I think that enough people got together or signed a petition and went up against the President of the company we may get some results. I have tried numerous ways to ask politely to stop calling. I even acted interested one time and the guy became nice. I informed him that I don't have credit problems so his services wouldn't be beneficial could he possibly have my number removed. He told me sure and we hung up. I still get calls! I think legal action may be best. But who has that kinda time?
talked to one dummy once and asked not to call again,
she said they are not the only ones calling,
"There are many sites that call".
"ok as---ole you are number one".
