Calls from this number, with no Caller Identity started today; 10SEP08 @Central Time: 4:48pm, 5:11pm, 5:59pm 6:11pm, 7:07pm, 7:29pm, and 8:10pm... That is about 7 calls in 3.5 hours... They would only let the phone ring for about 2 rings, sometimes 3, AFTER the first call since my answering machine is set to pick up after 5 rings. There are rules regarding calls for bill collectors also, but with no message, I have no way of knowing what it is they are pursuing... BUT the number or rings in the short period of time seems to be harrassment, most other recipients of calls seem to be being accused of a past cell phone bill, whether legit or not... I have had had ONE cell phone account ATT, SWB/Cingular, and now ATT again... still active paid and current... I do have an outstanding DirectTV Bill for .01, seems their online amount differed from their paper bill, and after late fees, etc... I have no idea how much it is now after 5 years... IF other posters figures are correct, it seems like a pretty low class operation trying to collect very small amounts, (under $100?)... SO I guess we can expect low class actions on their befalf...IMO
