These people won't stop calling. Half the time, there is just silence on the other end of the line, the other half of the time there is a threatening-sounding recording that makes it sound as though we are behind on a bill, but is just trying to 'help' us lower our interest rate. My mom is elderly with dementia and thinks she is in trouble when she happens to get to the phone before I do, and then is very upset afterwards. The phone companies need to get on the ball with this crap. These calls are the equivalent of spam in an inbox - why not develop an 'anti-spam' bank of phone numbers that are automatically blocked from calling their customers? Please, please, please. These people and others like them are driving our household insane!
