Calls on 8/4/2007 and 8/9/2007 still on CallerID. At least 6 calls prior to that. Filed complaints with both www.donotcall.gov and the FCC.

Should have mentioned that I have waited and pressed 8 to supposedly be removed every other time. This time I pressed 1 to "schedule and appointment". A woman answered Best Carpets. Before I finished my sentence, "Why are you calling my number on the do not call list?" she hung up on me.

I've gotten at least a half-dozen calls from this company... First the recording plays, then I talk to a person who says they are from "Best Carpet" and hang up if I try to get more information.

Calls:
08/03/07 3:50pm PDT  Didnt pick up because of the 555 prefix.
08/07/07 4:52pm PDT  Picked up to press 8.  Was immediately disconnected.
08/10/07 6:38pm PDT  Picked up and pressed 1 to inquire as to what business
this was and how they had a record of a "prior business relationship".  Phone was answered by a woman saying "Best Carpets"; no personal name given.  She asked when I wanted to schedule my appointment.  I asked what the prior business relationship was.  She snorted and hung up on me.

Sounds pretty much just like the typical experience.

I recieved the umpteenth call from "Carpet Cleaning Specialists" and they said their local contact was a Carpet One franchisee, and Carpet One sells buts does not clean carpets.

Recording-"Hello, this is Allison..."

got this call on 8/13 at 2:16pm. I didn't answer. Tried to call back but didn't get through.

I have been called many times...this is a taped message....I am on the DNC No Call List

Also found this number in our caller id... we are on the national do not call list and will report this number.

We are also on the DNC, and I have contacted San Mateo county DA's office about these same telemarketers.  They switch their Caller ID phone numbers, and when you ask to be removed, you never are.  Next, when you press 1 "to set an appointment," they will hang up on you if you ask them to be removed.

Yeah, google and call 888-279-6050.  This is "Carpet Cleaners" / "Allison Carpet" etc.  Sick of these guys calling me too...we're on the Do Not Call List.  Make sure to report them at www.donotcall.gov.  Then, report them to the DA of San Mateo county in charge of consumer affairs.  Supposedly they are located in Palo Alto, CA, according to http://local.yahoo.com/details?fr=dd-local-tl ... uOIedy9AwDxzl57

Carpet Cleaning Specialists. 415-555-1000

I reported them to www.donotcall.gov

They offer press #8 to be removed, and I have done that several times in the past, but they keep calling.

Same as many others listed, received unsolicited call from Allison carpet cleaning despite my being on the DNC. Is anyone in government trying to stop this nuisance?

I have gotten these calls several times in the past few weeks, even after I press "2" to have my # removed.  I have two phone lines and they both ring at the same time.  Must be a fast speed dialer at work!

Recorded message from "Allison"

They have been calling my DNC number for months.  They used to display a legitimate looking number which I reported to DNC every time.  Now they display a clearly bogus number on CID.  

This may not be strictly a Bay Area problem.  I stumbled across an L.A. number (213)221-1021 that has been reported to this site and the M.O. sounds similar -- recorded message, Best Carpet Cleaning, hung up on if more info is requested.

At this point, I think this may be more of a phishing scam to get credit card or other personal info from their "customers".  I tend to doubt there is any sort of company on the other end.  Certainly not a legitimate one.

Alison from Carpet Cleaning Specialists -- offering a "special" on carpet cleaning.  1 to schedule, 8 to remove from list.  I hit 1 and got disconnected.

I have received calls from this outfit before.  Today I pressed ! and said you are doing this illegally and they hung up. I will report to the authorities and hope they get caught and fined.
