- EFI have recieved a call a from this company a couple times now, it comes up as a PCS Phone and then the 500 number. They never leave a message. I am also on the no- call list. Very irritating!
My husband speaks spanish, I'm going to have him answer and see what happens- Caller: PCS Phone
- kbWe have recived many calls from this number. I e mailed the FCC to report it.
- DiYes we're getting it too. About 30 of them in the last few weeks! Does anyone know a way to block it?
- jenngI too have received these annoying calls almost 3 times a weeks for a month now.. I live in so-cal.......
- No BuenoThey've called me five or six times over the last few weeks. I don't speak enough Spanish to know what they want. They know my name, though.
Indianapolis area - FrankBizGot a call same issue as above.
Maybe the trick is having peoople call them back. Maybe you get a bill for calling the 500 number? Does anyone know? - 500-500-5000This # called while i was out and didn't leave a message.

- RickCall on caller ID shows+500 500500 Why si this not stopped. It is harassment
- jamin| 1 replyI have regularly received calls from this number. One or two times a day for the last week or so. Each call is loud burst of static, then either silence, or a voice in Spanish saying "bueno, buenas tardes" and then I think something about "calling from company about [...]" something or other. When I don't answer, it goes to voicemail, again either a message of only the static and then no words, or the same intro. And I can't call them back because the number is invalid to call. Como se dice "Stop calling me"
- Caller: "Unknown Name"
- KOKOSame deal here. Lot's of 500 500 5000 calls--all day, all night.
Let's beat em up! :-) - EDThey regularly call me. Tonight I answered in Spanish and they went on a rant about me winning a free calling card that will allow me to call here and there blah blah blah. They asked me if I wanted it and they had my address already. I did not give them any information and they said they will be mailing me the card in 2 days. At the end of the conversation, the woman gave me an 800 number to call if I had any questions, except she read it out to me at a million miles and hour and abruptly hung up. All I got was the 800. When I get the car, I will come back and write all the info and maybe we can ID who these idiots are.
- EDI went to the 500 website (www.500plus.com) and read their policy regarding (500) Vanity numbers. Number one reason for being suspended is SPAM. Then immoral, pornographic stuff. I suggest all of you that want to ID these people write an email in their "contact" page detailing that this number (500)500-5000 is being used for spam and perhaps they will be busted. I doubt it since they would loose money on these very expensive accounts.
- Theresa replies to jaminSame thing here.
We have a Spanish last name and I do speak Spanish as a 2nd language (my husband is Latino) but not my native language - so I don't like to mess with telemarketers who are fast talkers. I have a hard enough time with the English speaking ones! ... So when a telemarketer calls asking if I speak Spanish sometimes I fib and pretend that I don't... Anyway, I tried this tactic with the 500-500-5000 people and they just hung up on me. I thought that was the end of it but they still call. Like everyone else said, sometimes it's a static sound.
To say "Don't call me again!" you can say "No me llamas otra vez!" (Pronounced: No may yamas o-tra bays) ... Somehow I don't think this will be effective, but good luck... If they call again I may pick up the phone and scream at the top of my lungs into the phone just to mess with them. LOL.
Here are some other fun phrases:
"Tu madre tiene un bigote!" (Your mother has a mustache)
"No me jodas!" (Don't bother me)
"Un burro sabe mas que tu!" (A donkey knows more than you)
...Have fun! ;) - anonymous in new yorkI have been getting the same calls from them since November 2007. They stoped for a couple of weeks when I threatened them with the police. I filed a complaint with do not call registry but got no where with them. I talked to FCC today after receiving yet another call from them and they told me to file a complaint on their website. I am going to do that now.
- abuspilotThey stated calling here yesterday according to my wife. I got a call this morning and answered, they sounds like they were on the moon. Said something, I couldn't make it out, then I heard a bunch of static followed by nothing. I hava hispanic last name and am assuming most if not all posters here do too. I'm looking forward to there call back and have a couple responses set a side for them. Here's an example.
usted extremo loco
and
usted mató a mis padres
PS - My caller Id said "Special Acce XX" , initially I thought it was my brother calling from Iraq.. Glad I found this forum and I look forward to their next call. I will be ready this time. ha ha - angelHAVE CALLED 2-3 TIMES EVERY DAY FOR ABOUT A WEEK NOW
