5/28/2008; 5:53 p.m.: Received two calls on two different lines from King Teleservices, with caller id showing 718 361-4100. In both cases the outbound predictive dialing system at the telemarketer failed to assign a representative to the call, so all I got was open air. I have no prior business involvement with the firm and all numbers are registered on the DNC lisst. I called this number and was greeted by the typical rude and ignorant representative who claimed she did not know who she worked for and she did not call - despite my attempt to explain that it was her firm and not her personally. I asked for a supervisor and got the voicemail of the HR department. The corporate HQ is (800) 817-5468; www.king-teleservice.com. Call and complain to Tom Del Vecchio, chairman, D F King services.
