    507-540-0320‭  ‬05/25/2012  9:30AM  Donor Dept called again. Found them on line @ http://kidswishnetwork.org Address of 4060 Louis Ave., Holiday, Florida 34691
    Following numbers are listed as 727-937-3600 or 888-918-9004
    E-mail
    Monetary Donations – developmentdept@kidswishnetwork.org
    General Inquiries – info@kidswishnetwork.org
    Called the number back, after a short wait  Michael Baker (SEE www.facebook.com/people/Michael-Baker/100000413591621) answered the phone and started his speel. He went to Waggener HS and lives in Louisville Ky.  So why is he calling from area code 507 which is Minnesota. Went on line and found that only 10 cents per dollar is spent on the kids and 90 cents on themselves. Ref: http://www.charitynavigator.org/index.cfm?bay=search.comments&orgid=6115 
    I told Michael after he asked for $100.00, $75.00 or donations down to $30.00 that I was out of work and could not afford to donate. I told him that the number they call us on was about to be cancelled by the phone company and asked him to pull the number off their system as no one would be there to answer. He asked why I called (using my no ident cell) I told him a friend loaded me his cell phone and I was trying to call everyone that calls us and let them know we were about to get terminated by the phone company. He said that he would pull our number which I gave him and wished me luck with finding a job.

    These people call my phone between 3-5 times a day.  Sometimes from the same number and sometimes from other numbers. I have repeatedly requested the automated line to remove my number but it doesn't happen. Why would you offer the option and not comply? These people are rude and don't even give you the chance to ask them to remove you from their list before they hang up on you. And I know someone controls who the computer calls because I work for a place where you have to setup the calling lists to dial. They don't just dial magically. And they continue to call you about several different charities. That's bogus. If I knew that they would not leave you alone I never would have donated in the first place.

    insight sucks
    These [***] call my home several times a day also. I have also called the number back and tried to remove my name from their call list...with no avail. Their phone number is (734)246-9770. I think we should call them relentlessly telling them we're only working part time, unemployed, etc. and we need a donation. Call them several times a day. Of course block your phone number by pressing *67 before making the call. These people need a taste of their own medicine.

    i used to work at insight. u wouldnt believe what really goes on there...dont donate anything to them!!! they scam!!!! first off, only 15% of the money they raise goes to the actual charities. the other 85% goes to pay us, pay for the computers, office building rent, stamps, envelopes. most people dont think to ask "how much goes to the charity?" they dont accept anything lower then a $15 dollar donation, and out of that $15, only $1.50 actually goes to the charity. they set these insane quotas for us, like for example, one day we had to raise $450 worth of donations in a shift of 4 hours...we r told to lie like crazy, when people ask to be taken off the list, we hit the 'do not call' button, but that button doesnt mean [***]....it does not take u off the list. they lie about where we r from and how often we make calls. we call the same lists day after day, morning and night. they call the same lists on the morning and night shifts sometimes. i actually recognize names and addresses of the people. they lie about gift cards too. they dont actually send them out.

    the manager at the taylor office is a major [***]. his name is Charlie Meissner. He is a greedy [***]. he dont give a [***] about anything but that dollar. he is rude and fake as hell. i know they harass people and cuss at them and they do that so they can make their quotas and get their bonuses.

    if anyone has any questions, post them here and i'll tell u what i know

    none of your business
    when i hired in at insight we were told to say 15 % goes to the charity not true in most cases only 7% or less.They told us to rebut even if they said NO they wanted us to rebut anyway if we dident we got writen up for it or we got wrten up for lack of sales and fired.It is not right to to write someone up if the coustomer says NO ITS NOT RIGHT to fire someone for lack of sales we can't help it if the coustomer says NO TO REBUTING . after the coustomer says no i belive thats badgering and buy the way no one signed anything saying there were quotas when hired so how can a person be fired for lack of sales and also we were NOT  told of any quotas.
