Caller ID.....POLLING QUEST.
Looking at prior notes. 1. Medical alert scam. 2. Alarm company free system & a free sign in your front yard. 3. Medical supplement insurance. 4. Reverse medical insurance. 5. Sterling Mortgage Co. 6. And then I get a caller ID ..... POLLING QUEST?  Like maybe a possible political call ?
Heck. Who are these guys ?
Just saying.

Caller ID was "Alert."  Presumed telemarketer.

Female robovoice saying can save me money and provide extra $$$ for present use. I knew this was a mortgage loan call so I spoke back in halting robovoice. When it asked if I still own my home I said No and she replied...Oh I'm sorry you do not qualify for this program and I will remove you from our lists....Man, I think I hit the jackpot. CID "Alert".

Caller ID = "POLLING QUEST." I answered, nobody was there. Blocked.

I picked up the phone but no one on the other end. I said hello again and there was a long delay, about 10 seconds of silence (yeah, I listened for that long), then a beeping sound and finally a lady came on. By that time, I was fed up with the long delay after I said hello twice and no response, so I hung up. That's what they get when they don't say anything after I've said hello twice!
