Country: United States
I received the 2nd call today from Card Holder Services. As soon as you express anything other than "sign me up", they immediately hang up on you.
I understand that they are in violation of FCC Order DA-07-977A1 (2007), which was the citation issued on 2007-03-02. Please make them stop.
Sincerely,
Tony Sung

Look for code TJ212 - Allegiance & check the listing.
The best way to deal with this is to do *57 on your telephone to trace the call, then after tracing it, The contact your "Your local Police department" to file a report, Then after that call your Local Telephone provider company EX: Comcast and ask them for the legal department telephone number to file report. The legal department will handle it from there. Also, make sure your telephone number is on the DO NOT CALL List. Then you can sue this company for calling your telephone number without your permission.

They are the big fish, in fact, they are the biggest fish in telecom.
They've sued others for spam calling that choked their network.
Verizon has the technology to determine who is calling, through what telecom, and what total load this illegal robocalling is placing on their network, even with all the changing phone numbers.
They are INSIDE the g**-d*mn network, so if they can't stop it, we might as well prepare to stop using phones, as there is nothing to stop this type of robocall scam from growing to choke the whole system.
Email spam is 70% to 80% of all email traffic, but easily screened by ISPs, with limited effect on overall network bandwidth.
Robocall spam is not so innocuous.
"Cardholder Services" scam robocalls are already at between nuisance and severe nuisance levels, based on level of customer harassment. If two or three of these scam robocallers can freely send out millions of harassing calls, there is nothing to stop others from copying.
What if 10 copycats start doing the same thing, smugly confident they are beyond reach of anyone who might stop them?
You think Verizon will still have customers when people get 5 idiot robocalls a day? Sooner or later, they will have to solve this, since without any opposition that is where this is headed.
