877-208-4082

Claims to be from a local cable company but would not say name of company.
I have asked these idiots not to call I am on the DO NOT CALL LIST. But they continue to call anyway.

Call came in. Number not private. I let answering machine get it. They left no message. I will now block based on info here... Thanks...

numerous hang up calls.  I finally called the number back.  They are American Broadband and told me they are calling because they share all verizon accounts and need to let me know there may be a price reduction on my Verizon plan.  When I questioned whether they are verizon he said no.  I asked how he could possibly know if Verizon has a price reduction for me if he isn't with Verizon.  I told him what he needs to do is immediately take me from the calling list he hung up on me.
I called again to ask the name of the company and the lady was very nice and said she would remove our number from their list???
I plan to call verizon now but I'm betting they have no recourse and I have to continue to be bothered by these people

Keep getting calls from this number.  If I answer the call I get a recording that says "goodbye" and the call disconnects.  I just called the number and a man answered the call as American Broadband.  I asked to be removed from their list as well as filing a compliant with the donotcall.gov site.

Several calls, at afternoon and early evening hours. Called back once, but no one on other end, which just played music.

The caller identified as 'Dawn'  said she was from verizon.  The FCC has recently split up Verizon and American Broadband was adding people in the area with a discount rate as a part of the ruling.  The new rate would be approx. $20 less per month.  She gave me a customer service number, 1-866-765-2628.  Her call=back number was 1-877-208-4082 ext. 253. I guess I need to dig some more.

Contacted Verizon.  They are not selling out to American Broadband.  This was a phishing call.  Do not fall for it.

Verizon may be 'branching off' some rural areas to Frontier who specialize in rural services.  This will not happen for about a year and all Verizon land line customers will be advised ahead of the transaction.  The transition will be 'seemless' without having to transfer to another company.

I hope this helps someone.

My 80 year old mother fell for this! They promised she would not lose Verizon. Took a week to port the number back to Verizon and now American Broadband want 70 bucks for a week of local service. Try calling any department and you get an answering machine! Call the office manger Mr. Dave Noe, Office Manager - (419) 824-5815 He won't pick up either but you can at least have a way to complain. And file a complaint with the BBB!

Got a call from this number 2/10/10 at 2:00 PM--said hello and nothing. I waited maybe 5 seconds and hung up. It's happened before with this number.

just got a call from 1-877-208-4082.  a computer said that it was a conference call, then the line went blank - no one there.

I switched and it is saving me money. I've had it for two months and nothing has changed except how to check my voicemail.  I am not happy with Verizon because we can't get decent internet service and even the dial-up is slower than anything I've ever seen.  Just a few miles up the road Verizon offers DSL but not to any of the 100 or more people on my road.

Grandmother received a call from the number and after two "hello's?" the person on the other line stated "Why dont you go die?" before hanging up.

They keep calling and hanging up--must be a scam!  They say they are from Frontier phone company but they are NOT.

I got a call and a young guy said he NEEDED to speak with the person who was responsible for paying the Frontier phone bill.  I told him (without thinking, duh) that we don't have Frontier and was mid-sentence asking him to take us off of their call list when he hung up on me.

I just received a call from 877-208-4082.  The lady asked me if I was in charge of the Frontier phone bill.  I replied asking her who is this and she hung up on me.  I called the number back and a guy answered and said he was a company who helps people switch phone service because of the many Frontier complaints.  I told him I was on a no call list and to take me off his list.  Since I have caller ID, next time I'm not going to answer the phone.

I just received a call from this number and googled it to see everyone else history with it.   I got the "goodbye" message when I answered the phone.  I called it back and they did answer America Broadband.   I told the operator that I had no interest in what they were offering after seeing this information.  I asked to removed from the list and he politely said okay.    I said do you need the number and said that would help. LOL

Received a message stating that our bill was coming due in ten days and that we could make a payment by phone.  I called the number back and the person answering the phone stated "American Broadband"  when I stated that I received a phone call stating we owed a bill the person hung up.

If you have verizon or frontier it is the same --frontier took over verizon but I don't know if it was every state.
Just got that call myself, I figured if he was legit he would know me by name. I didn't listen to what he had to say just told him to send me a letter. Than I hung up.

In today's world it is best never to answer any numbers you don't know. That is what I do but sometimes I am near the phone that doesn't have caller ID. Too many scams out there today to trust anyone.

Received a call from this number.  All I got was a "goodbye" and the call disconnects.  It is American Broadband and don't want to continue being bothered with telemarketers or worse yet phishing calls.
I just added them to my "Do NOT Call" list but it will take 31 days to discontinue.  If it continues I will file a complaint with the donotcall.gov site.
