Caller ID says PACTEL: called a few times today, i did not pick up. If you call back it says the number is disconnected

Answered know it was a scam call.  I like effing with telemarketers.  Sadly, no one was there!
PLEASE READ BELOW!
FACT 1 - the DNC list CLEARLY does not work!  Everyone knows this...or you should know this by now!
FACT 2 - filing a complaint with the FCC does not work!  A total and complete waste of time.  Been there.  Done that.
FACT 3 - having an unlisted phone will not help you.
FACT 4 - asking/begging telemarketers to take you off their call list – you’ll get laughed at!
FACT 5 - no "class action" law suits are being filed and certainly, none are being LITIGATED.  
FACT 6 – contacting the BBB – LAUGHABLE!!!  The BBB and the National Chamber of Commerce are corrupt organizations that sell their ratings to the highest bidder.  You can forget them.

STOP BEING FRUSTRATED OVER TELEMARKETER CALLS!

STOP BEING A VICTIM!!!

PLEASE DO THIS!     PURCHASE A CALL BLOCKING TELEPHONE!!!

Call blocking phones are very inexpensive $40-$60 and they come with, at least, one wireless handset.  Very, very convenient.

DON'T GET MAD – HIT BACK!

STOP BEING ANNOYED.  STOP COMPLAINING!
BUY A CALL BLOCKING PHONE!

Uniden and Panasonic make CALL BLOCKING telephones.  They’re cheap - $40-$60 and they usually come with a 2nd wireless handset.  
COSTCO & AMAZON SELL THEM.

                     They work beautifully!  These phones also block
                  “PRIVATE,” “OUT OF AREA” and "UNKNOWN" calls!!!

I have had the same home number and the same business phone number for over 15 years and my home and my business lines (both published) seem to be on every call list imaginable.  I bought a Panasonic call blocking phone for my home and I bought a Uniden call blocking telephone for my business.

NO MORE PROBLEMS WITH TELEMARKETERS.   THEY CAN’T GET THROUGH!

We can stop these telemarketers IF we all buy a call blocking phone!

Call blocking phones are the only way to go!

same lower interest rates,scammer, robo calls  ,illegal in my state of nc.   have turned in over a dozen different ones do not call and attorney generals office. they stop but come back with different numbers. have to report all of them as they come in. if only we could get ours hands around their necks and squeeze the [***], slime ,and the devil out of them ,until they quit breathing ,would be great.  [***] hole telemarketers,scammers ,and such ,are all alike .

i dont feel i should be forced to buy caller id ,an pay monthly fee and call blocking phones, to stop a bunch of scum ,criminal scammers. must be a better way
