When these telemarketers call me I get even.
The FTC do not care. The so called "DO NOT CALL LIST" does not work and the Federal Govt is probably selling our information from the list. I have been on the do not call list since it's inception and have renewed EVERYTIME I needed to.
The calls still continue. I just unplugged my worthless Charter phone for a year. charter themselves called me almost everyday. It would show up on my TV screen. I'm to the point where I may cancel all of my tv services and go with an antenna and magic jack.
Here is what I have been doing which has taken some of the repetitive callers from calling me and it is simple.
I answer saying " Joe's Free Clinic, would you like to schedule an appointment"?
Sometimes I answer " .... Community Clinic, would you like to make an appointment"? Put whatever you wish in front of community.
And sometimes I just say " Sorry No Engrish, Nihongo Dake" translates to Japanese only.
Don't get mad, get even. Since our Goverment won't work for us. I have written the FTC via their website 20 times and I always get the same chain letter..... " sorry we do not find any violations, however you may wish to contact your State Attorney General or take Civil Action" BS. I keep a folder and will one day forward to my local Elected Representative.
