Thanks Shirley. https://forums.windrivers.com/images.../2005/03/1.gif
So, there is no "stay of execution" when it comes to this then? Well, I must start writing down the scofflaw's names from now on then. https://forums.windrivers.com/images.../2006/04/1.gif
I'm so crafty with google I decided to give ya'll a link to the complaint page.

Quote:
1. To file a complaint now, your phone number must have been on the registry for three months.
2. To file a complaint, we need the date you got the call, and either the name or telephone number of the company that called you.
*Reminder: Even if your number is registered, companies with which you do business may continue to call you. So may charities, political organizations, and telephone surveyors. Click Here for more information about the companies that may continue to call the numbers on the registry.

Let's nail these *************ers.
just keep this list of questions to ask them handy. :thumbs:
I signed up with the NYS do not call list before it merged to the national one and I only get the occasional charity call.
They already have. My dad was telling me he got one on his work cell the other week. :sad:Quote:

Tell them thank you and that you will now be calling to report them for violation of the DNC.Quote:

Well there's three ways I've found round the problem of these time wasting twits.....
1. Get an answering machine, only friends and families and genuine callers will leave a message, which you can choose to delete and ignore anyways
2. I got BT to block 'hidden' numbers, a favourite of the phone spammers.... Now when someone hides their telephone number they get a recorded message from BT saying "the number you are calling is refusing to accept withheld numbers"
3. Never give out your phone number unless it is essential, that includes your mobile. Despite what these companies say they will sell your details to "carefully selected companies" anyway
Since applying the second option, I haven't had one unsolicited telephone call, and most businesses that I've dealt with don't get my phone number unless I see it as essential they have it. If they have my e-mail address for their spam lists, they sure as hell don't need my phone number as well.
I have had a couple calls on my cell phone from spammers, but they were "directional" spam, meaning they had to do with me being a tech.
They have been from "marketers" wanting to sell me advertising from as far away as Dallas. I learned years ago not to listen to these fools, and I will NOT pay money to talk to them.

I have caller id and an answering machine. If the caller is not identified, I don't pick up the phone. There are a few instances of people that will not show up on the caller id, but they know enough to leave a message. If I am standing there, I can always pick the phone up and interrupt the answering machine once they've ID'ed themselves.
It's been off and on for me. Lately have been getting a couple a night, though I suspect that they have to do with the upcoming elections.
Thats when I get rid of my phone entirely, and use a blackberryQuote:
