Just received a call, answered, and it said "Please hold for the next available agent" and then it disconnected.

Just called my cell phone after repeatedly getting calls from the same two unknown numbers have no idea who this is and i dont pick up calls i dont know any ideas would be appreciated

this number has been calling me twice a day for several weeks i tried answering today to tell them to stop calling and it hung up how do i get them to stop?

What options does one have to defend themselves against intrusive callers?

• The Do Not Call list (Federal or State)
Works, but is effective against ONLY "legitimate" telemarketers.  Political callers, surveys and some other callers are exempt.  Scammers ignore the DNC list.

• NoMoRobo
A system offered by some telephone providers, to help automatically block robocalls.  Google "nomorobo" to see if it works with your phone provider.

• Shouting, screaming, swearing at the caller
Nope.  Does not stop calls.  May make you hoarse, and will disturb nearby people.

• Call blocker app, device or service
Could be a good choice (even though the scammers can use fake phone numbers), and some apps are free!
Google "call blocker" for more information, or check your favorite online sales site for a list.

Your phone provider may also offer blocking services.  Check their web page for information.

If you cannot use any of the above defenses, then:
• Do not answer calls from unknown numbers ... let them go to voicemail or answering service
• Do NOT return calls from unknown numbers!  All that does is verify your phone number!  And, in some cases, those return calls may cost $20 or more to complete.  http://www.consumer.ftc.gov/blog/one-ring-cel ... ing-your-wallet
• If you have a "dumb" cell phone, assign the scammer's number to a group named "scammers" (or similar).  Then, assign a silent ringtone to that group.

School federal loan program - they call CONSTANTLY and it doesn't matter how many times you tell them to stop - they don't. I've blocked them from my phone but they use a different number. I made the mistake to call from my office phone (to see who was calling) now they're harassing me at work.  No person - just an automated voice.  I HATE these people!!!

Who owns this number??? Need to know please.

Student Loan Services.   Apparently they renegotiate student loans.  Seems dodgy.  No company name that I can find.  Seem to be located in Pittsburgh California.

They called and just hung up immediately after. Who is that?

This number calls 3 oor 4 times a day , but when u answer it disconnects?? whats up with that???

I'm right with you there I have to date 10 numbers blocked from them it's such a joke. I don't even have a student loan

This number 925-203-3831 has been calling every 2.5 hours for days. No message is left and when answered, there is no one on the line.

They are legit. I signed up for Student Loan refinancing but.....then I think they sold my number off to some REAL sketchy people who called. I answered and when they started asking for my social security number.....hung up.

I am on Social Security.  Good luck to them with me answering the phone or paying back my $25k in student loans that did nothing for my job opportunities. For Profit colleges are scams anyways and the federal government is their silent partner.
