They keep calling to promote ocean tours. They assert that if you provide them with the information re your phone # you will be removed from their data base. That statement is false.

They are calling you at your HOME.  Don't you go there to get away from the outside world?

This telemarketing stuff has to stop....

Hey, I just thought of something:

You know how a guy has to ask a woman for her number before he can call?  The same kind of thing should apply here... unless a business asks me for my number, they aren't gonna get it... unless they STEAL it from some database..  a home phone number is NOT to be given out unless the homeowner/renter gives it out!

Snail mail, that I can accept.  Less intrusive.  But calling on the phone?  NO.

I don't have cell service at my house so I have Pinger(free Internet texting), and this number just called me at that number. Then texted me asking to call back. That is so dumb to call a TEXTING ONLY number.

Rang at my office. Didn't recognize, so didn't answer and they didn't leave a message. Not the first time.

This number called me a few moments ago at work - didn't leave a message either - probably as others said, trying to promote a cruise or something since I don't know anyone or do business with anyone in Washington state, where area code 206 originates
