She’ll get the money in one dollar increments off her bill.

Geez where’s my cash, I get phone calls from “Name Not Found” CONSTANTLY both cell phone and home phone

Good. When I bought a new phone from Verizon, it was CLEAR almost immediately that the phone number was “foreclosed” on....lol. Every single call was from some creditor and it was ANNOYING........SO ANNOYING.....until one day I said, I am going to screw with them. And I acted like I was the guy....his name was Bruce and I became Bruce with the creditors saying of course I will send you money or gave a false credit card number or whatever I could do to make their lives MISERABLE. I also made up a sob story to waste their time.....this happened from 2011 until around 2014 and now on a very rare occasion I get a call but not as bad as 10 calls a day in 2011.

Anyone have Brigitte’s address and phone number? That hag {yeah I know it’s a generated voice but still annoying} is a huge menace to society. Brigitte calls up to four times a day sometimes.

Funny you should mention that. No. By amazing coincidence, there is an exception to the law written in to cover just that.

I’ve gotten a phone call every day (sometimes twice a day) from AT&T for the last 15 months. I think I’m on a first name basis now with all of their telemarketing people.

Why not, take them to small claims to avoid attorneys, unless your state allows it
to be upgraded to a higher court. I think first you must be on the no call list, and
at the very least tell them to stop calling.

I was being harassed to the point of five calls a day by some robo marketing
company. No matter what I did I couldn't get contact with a living person and
it was extremely annoying. The first step was to place my number on the no call
list. Then during one call I pressed their #1 to make them remove me from their list.

It tapered off and the calls eventually stopped. I was on the verge of hiring
a detective to find the company to sue the hell out of them.
Nobody needs harassment.

I hate robocalls. I asked for a insurance quote online in Aug 2012 and I am STILL getting calls about that.

We still use a Comcast IP landline as part of our triple play package. I like the better sound quality compared to our Verizon service over our iPhones.

I was adding all the landline (which we've had for 30 years!) junk calls manually to our Panasonic cordless phone and to the Comcast call block black list. That was not effective or scalable, so some web research led me to NoMoRobo by Aaron Foss who won an FTC "challenge" with his system. You set it up to allow simultaneous ring on your home line and on the NMR system. It checks a crowd-sourced blacklist database and ends the telemarketer call after one ring if it finds a match. I turned the ringers off on all of our cordless handsets. That way I can hear the faint ring on the base station in the MBR and not have to suffer four handsets going off simultaneously. I usually see the light flash on the handset and can check the caller ID to see who's calling.

Now we can go three or four days without a junk call. When one slips through the NMR system, the calling number is logged on the Panasonic phone. I jump on NMR and add the number to the database (just takes a few seconds) so others won't be bugged. Apparently NMR does some validity checks before adding the number to the system so you can't add your Mother in Law.

I highly recommend NMR as an easy (and FREE) way to get control of the phone line you pay for.

For $229,500 they can call me as many times as they like.

[Organic Panic]

It has been five years with this cell phone number and I still get calls for the deadbeat that had it. Sometimes 5 a day. All debt collectors.
