It was not a phone call FROM 806-686-4000, but a fax asking me to "Call Now! 1-806-686-4000" for health insurance, AGAIN! I received a fax on 09/23/10 and called the 877-527-2361 to be removed (within 30 days) from their list. I received another fax this morning, 10/27/10, with all the same information except the dollar amount was changed. I did a search on the 806-686-4000 number and it appears to be a land line in Lubbock Texas but no name or other information was available. I received a similar fax on 06/17/10 asking me to call 1-866-318-8810 for health insurance. I called 877-527-2354 to be removed and it was the same voice as the other two mentioned above. The Junk Fax Prevention Act, passed by congress in 2005, expressly prohibits fax advertisements unless you have an EBR (existing business relationship) with the sender or have given your prior express permission to receive the fax advertisements. I have given no such permission and stating "This is not a solicitation" on the fax does not make it so. It IS a solicitation and/or advertisement for insurance. They are NOT requesting insurance from ME, they are trying to get me to buy insurance from THEM! That is an advertisement or solicitation. If I continue to receive these faxes, I will file a formal complaint with the FCC. In fact, I may do it now as I have already received several more faxes AFTER having called to be removed from their list. And yes, they came in more than 30 days after having called to be removed.
