I have been getting DAILY cell phone calls from telemarketers and other annoying people. I am on the Do Not Call list, but it does not stop them. I usually do not answer the calls, but I have looked up some of the various numbers on whitepages.com.
One of the culprits is Verizon wireless. This company calls me from various cities all over Texas. I am on an AT&T plan, so I guess they want me to switch--not going to happen, bottom feeders.
There is another company called NCO Financial (I think) that calls me occasionally and leaves voicemails trying to collect on a debt for someone named Jennifer Settler. I have no clue who that person is. I tried to call to gripe at them but just got a recorded message.
There are other various unknown phone numbers that I have not looked up yet that come from all over the country and it will usually just have a state abbreviation followed by USA. I have gotten calls from "FL, USA," "AL, USA," "RI, USA," and a few others. There have also been a couple of calls from Natesville, Ohio.
The most annoying call is the one I get from Los, Angeles, CA at least once a day, sometimes 2-3 times per day. I looked up the number (213-833-2538), and the company is Teleport Communications America. I have tried answering a couple of times to tell them to stop calling, but there is no one on the line-just noise.
Has anyone else dealt with harassing cell phone calls, and how did you handle it?
