I think someone was on the other end when I answered but they didn't say anything.

Missed a call from that number too. I am in Montreal.

I'm so annoyed by their repeated sales calls that I'm posting this wherever I see people asking about calls from this phone number (which comes from a company called Constant Contact.)  

It appears that Constant Contact is up to their dirty marketing tricks again, however now they've taken it to a whole new level.  They are now TELEPHONE SPAMMING people!  The Constant Contact phone calls are quite annoying.

A little while ago I signed up for a "free" tutorial webinar they offer, which required me to enter my phone number.  Since then, they have telephone spammed me three times.  The first call was a hang up when they got my voicemail, and on the subsequent calls the guy leaves a voicemail.  

In each message he says he just wants to follow up with me regarding the webinar I attended (which is really just a cover-up excuse to call me to promote their service and possibly get me to subscribe.)  

In the voicemail the man also says he doesn't know whether or not I'm currently a member or trial member or not, but that if I'm not, I should sign up for their trial.

This kind of crap is so annoying and such a waste of my time to even listen to the voicemails.  I used to respect this company and even recommend them to my clients, but with this kind of skeezy marketing/sales tactics, I will likely go back to recommending Aweber instead.

I'm sure someone from Constant Contact will respond and say "well, you can always contact us and request to have your phone number removed, or put on your do not call list."  Well, that's also unacceptable.  I shouldn't HAVE to contact them and ask them not to telephone spam me; they shouldn't be doing it to me in the first place.  

I know legally they are allowed to because I gave them my phone number and I'm sure in their "terms and conditions/agreement/fine print" it said they are allowed to call me.  That's not the point; just because it's legal, doesn't mean it's ethical.

They really need to stop this type of unethical marketing.  Not only does it make them look desperate and sketchy, it builds ill will with potential customers.  

I was seriously considering subscribing to their service before this (that's why I joined their free tutorial webinar,) but now I'm not so sure.  It's not that the product/service they provide is bad, it's just that I'm not sure I want to do business with, or support a company that engages in this kind of marketing methods.  And just because others are doing it, also doesn't make it right.

Thanks for the info - they keep calling me and don't leave a message. I signed up for a webinar once - and then couldn't log on to take it anyway. Didn't know I was signing up for a daily phone call!

Calls my cell, and doesn't leave a message either!

Constant Contact is also call spamming me!

I've got screenshots of my Google Voice to prove it.

Here's my blog post about it:

They are an unethical company. If you write one blog post that suggests that their workshops are merely sales pitches, suddenly they will NOT LEAVE YOU ALONE!

Stop Harassing Me Constant Contact! You Are Acting Like Jerks!

I have relatives living in Ma. Thought this might be about them... Nope. I should have just let it go to voicemail.

Constant Contact.  "no charge" we're calling to update.  MUST speak to owner.  If you know us then you know who the owner is I said.  Put on our block list.  Don't know where she was headed but waste of time.

Rudy can I have your phone number

DO NOT sign up for a free trial of Constant Contact. I have been checking out email marketing tools and tried a few out. while they all make you sign up for a free trial period, Constant Contact are the only ones who have begun emailing and calling daily using high pressure sales tactics to try and get you to sign up for the full service.

Yes - I foolishly signed up for the demo to see how it compared to our existing email provider, and the salesman has called 4 times in under a week. We are small business and I literally have not had the time to check it out....However, I am so put off by the sales calls that I will likely skip it all together. I have no problem with a person or company making a buck, but this is way overboard and highly off-putting.

Constant Contact does not take no or do not call me for an answer. I told the girl that I was not interested and not to call again, she literally called me 4 times in a row after I hung up!
