Hi Everyone,
I FOUND OUT WHAT TO DO !!
I'm up to here with getting these calls and looked into it.
You don't complain to the company calling you. You take
it to their phone company. Phone companies are VERY
sensitive about complaints to the FCC and state public
utility commissions (PUC.)
I am receiving taped messages that create commercial
telephone calling lists that are sold to other companies.
Ignore that they say it's a survey of any kind. The FCC
says you can file an easy on-line complain if .....
"You receive a pre-recorded commercial message from
someone with whom you do not have an established
business relationship and to whom you have not given
permission to call you."
File a complaint NOW at:
http://www.fcc.gov/complains
They ask a few quick questions so they can get your
complaint to the correct desk. You just have to answer
as close as you can to what you experienced like is
your phone home or business, wired or wireless, was
the call you received live or taped. Very easy. The
FCC seems interested in getting a description of the
call, going after offers to "opt-out" of future calls, and
if you ever made any prior purchases from the company
bothering you.
AND... complain to the State that phone company is in.
First find out the telemarketer's phone carrier and State
by searching for their number at a service like "Number
Guru."
http://www.numberguru.com
That will give you the Name and State the carrier is in.
Then look up any State's agency in charge of telephone
companies at:
http://www.naruc.org/Commissions/?
They show a map of the United States where you just
click on the State the carrier is in. You'll get a page
with information about the PUC in that State and a link
to their website. Once you click over to their website
there will be a way to complain on line just like you
did at the FCC.
HIT THEM WHERE IT HURTS....
.....IN THEIR PHONE COMPANY.
TAKE AWAY THEIR TELEPHONE LINE
YOU CAN DO IT
COMPLAIN NOW
