It is impossible for the ftc, fcc, and dnc to keep a thumb on all of the scammers, and scofflaws who abuse the system on a world wide stage. To me, it seems that the phone companies should be held accountable for allowing the users of the violating phone numbes to go unchallenged. The phone companies should terminate use by those who unlawful use phone numbers,  and be held accountable by the government if they don't.   Also, the phone system and caller IDs should not allow spoofed calls to pass.  I guess it's wishful thinking but nothing else is working and the DNC has outlived any practical usefulness.  It was just never intended or expected to handle the telephone chaos that we face today.

When you consider the total number of telephones in the USA, and that 90+   percent claim to be on the DNC Registry,  how is it possible not to call someone on the DNC list?  Seems it would be easier and cheaper for the FTC to establish a "Please Do Call" list.  That would also eliminate all of the crying  "I'm on the Do Not Call List" posts on this board..

unfortunately,   Not a damn thing...

Dave, Those calls are legal. This time of year the medicare hunters are out in force calling potential customers. They are calling to survey your needs, provide information, and attempt to arrange a face to face meeting between you and a representative of their company.  Therefore establishing a busines relationship.  Until you tell them not to, Any business can call you,  DNC or not, there is no immunity.  As long as they do not attempt to collect a fee for a product or service over the phone.  And that their intended and ultimate purpose for calling  is to arrange for a such a meeting.

Telemarketing= Telephone sales of goods or services.

Whenever a phone number calls and you are on the Do Not Call List, Just tell them you are going to report them to the District Attorney's office, and they will be fined... Get the name of the person, and watch how the calls stop

Call here all the time.  I've never answered and never will.  Telemarketing skum.......

I'm another who's turning 65 in a few months.  Seems to be a clue - altho' how the telemarketers know this is puzzling.

More puzzling - if you read the comments on this number, you get a very depressing feeling about the people who post their comments!  Seems to be a lot of people who sit at their computers these days, looking for things to argue about.

Oy.

my telephone can block 30 numbers, and this number is on my list.  the phone rings once only.  they still continue to call my phone number.  they used to be l-800 dentist, and they used another number 845-770-0052 as l-800 dentist.

they need to be shut down

I was getting these calls also, day after day. Today, there was someone there when I answered and he said he was from etelequote. They have a website and, I called the number 727-953-9403. I called and got a recording for a Tony Sola, who gave cell # as 727-224-9993. I called that and left a message to stop calling. Don't know if it will help.

Heard from this Tony and, he said they only call people who have expressed interest in what he offers. Not true of my household. He also said they only call up to 2 or 3 times a day. If no one answers they call back. Here's an idea Tony. Leave a MESSAGE and STOP CALLING. He said he'd make sure I was off the call list. If anyone wants to be off, I'd suggest you call him.

We receive calls from the above # at least 3 times a day including weekends.  We just let the phone ring. I am not at all interested in what they have to say. But to be quite honest to me this is haressment. I can't block the number on my phone, because of all the other numbers I had to block. As a result the phone has no more memory. Help!!!

Sick and tired of calls from 855 228 8570.At least 4-5 times a day.Never answers,but they are not discouraged!Shameless  pigs!!!!

I will turn 65 in October.  So they started calling me to sell Medicare Supplemental Insurance.  They have been calling me 1 to 2 times a day, 5 to 6 days a week since April 29. I have told them I am on the do not call list and they continued to call. I placed the phone next to the tv and radio when they called and that did not discourage them. I then put a block on their calls, but caller ID shows they still call as often. So I have filed a complaint with my State Attorney General and the FTC. If enough complaints are filed this will be resolved. They would have to be licensed in each state they call in order to conduct business, so hopefully the Attorney General will fine them and pull their permits. Why would they think anybody would want top purchase their insurance when they harass them like this. - Fed Up
