I answered and heard call center type background noise, but no one said anything.

I had the exact same experience.  Call center noise but nobody on the phone.

They called me asking for donations for Utah Veterans of foreign wars.

They have called 4 times today looking for the owner.  Each time I have told them the owner does not take solicitation calls, they say it is not a solicitation call, but a thank you call.  I have asked them several times not to call.  They don't want to leave a message or a return number.  When I asked them not to call anymore they said they cannot take me off their list until they speak to him.  I had him talk to them and he had to threaten with Harassment charges.

These people call and when I answer, they hang up.  I don't want to be on their call list.  They must be verifying phone numbers or something.  Anything I can do about it?  Their phone number is 1- 435-671-4040, but when I try to return the call, a recording says:  "The number you dialed is either a non-working number or a number that has been disconnected."  Tell me what I can do!
