I received a call that my answering machine picked up, then I picked up before my message was done but there was no one there. I googled the number, and found this site so I called it back to see if they picked up.
An automated service picked up and said the company was TeleResources and said if you know the extension of the party you are calling, blah, blah blah. It then said if you received this number on your caller ID to press ext. 111. I did so, a polite gentleman named Steve answered and I explained what happened. He asked what state I was calling from, when I answered Florida he explained that the radio station 101.5 is doing a survey. I said I did not listen to the station and he just responded that they will probably try back again.
I received a letter from FCC a week ago from a complaint I must have logged a year ago. It stated that non-profit organizations, survey companies and businesses which you have given permission to call you are exempt from the "Do Not Call List". It went on to say the informtion I had provided was insufficient for them to investigate, but if I received a call from a business I did not give permission to call me to report them and provided the information they needed to follow up.
So basically, this is a marketing company that does survey's for other companies and survey's are expemt from "Do Not Call List" according to the FCC letter along with the calls I get from the Police and Firefighter's Benevolent Associations, etc. You can request the latter organizations take your name off of their donation lists though, although I don't think the FCC can do anything if they don't and call you back. . .
