CID: TOLL FREE CALL. First called my landline on 4/6/16; voicemail consisted of a female voice saying "Hello?" and then silence. After checking here, I blocked the number. Whoever they are, they are very persistent as they've made 4 calls since the block (4/6, 4/8 and twice on 4/9). I wonder how many times they have to be hung up on by my block before they stop.

called and asked to speak to me using my entire name. didn't say where he was calling from...NOTE he called me in the wrong line...anyone who knows me knows the number that was called wasn't MY DIRECT PHONE #

James from BGE Home wanting to do a survey, but only with a male. Very poorly spoken, very sketchy.

Political Opinion people. Called first only to hang up when I answered. They called back a few minutes later same caller ID number. A lady that wasn't very informed on what she was asking wanted my opinion on a topic she was unclear in stating. I then asked for details as to what she was asking. She had to keep pulling the phone away to ask someone else in the call center for answers. She then got a little rude forgetting they were interrupting my life. Though they wanted my opinion without being clear I remained calm and polite. She on the other hand after several times of having to divert her attention away from the phone just hung up on me. I understand because they aren't a soliciting call they get to bypass the failed DNC but there should also be regulations against rude political opinion callers like this as well as automated calls that you can never reach a live person. If you can't be polite and/or can't be bothered to have a live person talk to me then if/when I figure out what you are trying to push I will downgrade my support for what you are pushing.

BLOCKED, I don't care what they want!
There is no Prize for knowing who called!

We're on the DN Call list!  It didn't matter.  What  a joke!  We got a call at 10:25 PM last night!  Ludicrous!

When they called me at 10:25 last night, I was livid.  I asked what he was calling about and he said it was for our local utility putting in new utility lines (I'll sell a bridge to anyone who believes that).  Then I told him what time it was and the [***] said "actually, it's closer to 10:30!" ...Son of a you know what.  I demanded to know who HE worked for and suddenly I heard "click" ... I was so pissed off

When they called me at 10:25 last night, I was livid.  I jumped out of my skin thinking there was a death in the family! I asked what he was calling about and he said it was for our local utility putting in new utility lines (I'll sell a bridge to anyone who believes that).  Then I told him what time it was and the [***] said "actually, it's closer to 10:30!" ...Son of a you know what.  I demanded to know who HE worked for and suddenly I heard "click" ...

Called at 10pm tonight! Just like Nancy's entry before me, I jumped up thinking something bad happened to someone close to my family.
I rarely pick up the phone when I don't know the caller, and the ID just said the number and nothing more. But I grabbed the phone ready to let the expletives fly and CLICK they hung up on me. It's gotten so bad that i'm thinking of dumping this house phone #, sadly the less means of communication seems to be for the better.

This and another number 844-814-5432 like calling people after 9 pm for political surveys.

Didn't answer, looked up number here and then blocked.

Frankly I don't care if they call because I rarely hear the phone and check calls after the fact.  Don't have voice mail. If in directory will call back.

You're absolutely correct Steve P.  These "conservatives" want SMALL government, but then when that's what they get (underfunded and weak services), they royally complain, blame the government and other parties for the failure that they, themselves, voted for.  If you don't want weak enforcement of laws, underfunded government services and an overall poorly functioning country, then stop asking for it by voting these obstructionist republicans into office.

I agree, the Do Not Call list is a joke most of the time, I only know one time that they have helped the public, they stopped the IRS calls. They report them to the FBI, and the criminals were arrest.

I get calls from 800-816-3521 2-3 times a day.  I don't know how true it is but someone told me that these companies get paid by how many people they talk to and get them to finish the survey or poll, etc.  So they have a huge incentive to keep calling you and get you to answer the phone.  My phone has been going crazy for the last 6-8 months from companies that conduct polls and surveys.  It's NUTS!!  We need to write or talk to our politicians that we don't want unwanted calls and to leaves us the heck alone!!   As far as I am concerned the Do Not Call registry is a way for all these companies to obtain our phone #'s and call us.  I bet that's what the politicians wanted so when they run for office they can call everyone to conduct polls.  It's a no-brainer.  It's all the government's fault.  The list should be confidential and only given out to FOR-PROFIT companies after they have provided a Business Savings or Checking account number so that if they violate the law, the fines get automatically withdrawn from it.  If they don't have the funds to cover it, the IRS goes after them or they get a subpoena to appear in Court.  The other non-profit & "political" companies should NOT get to see the DNC list.  Let them work to find your ph#.  That's what they should have done.

Missed call. No message left.

I called back, too. They are a survey site. Political, products and services. If you want to give your opinion, go ahead. No reason to block if tou want to be part of their info-gathering. They aren't selling anything. At least they are American so I might give them a shot.
