877-888-8888

Received a call from this number for the first time today.  Caller ID:  LOCAL 100 TWU.  The number isn't to the TWU. I hate these slugs.  Really?? What the hell is their purpose anyway? is their sole job in life to make anonymous calls to people across the country? As for the Do Not Call list??? Monumental joke since the government doesn't monitor or even review their site.

called several times no answer. i am sick of telemarketing  calls. several a day on  my home and cell phone

Missed call from 877-888-8888 around 11am. Caller ID showed: "TOLL FREE CALL". No message left.

I get 3 or 4 calls a day from 8-888-8888 and it some person from india saying do you want school loans. I am 61 yrs old why do I need school loans.  Just annoying.  have asked them to stop calling several times they just get mad at me.

8/20 10:46 PDT  Don't know or care who or what this is.  Obviously, based on number of reports, idiots should have given up a long time ago.

I answered a call from this number a few minutes ago. The caller had a bit of an attitude and asked for a family member when I told her they weren't available she hung up on me. I figured it's a sales or one of the other numerous calls we have  every week.

Called - didn't answer - they didn't leave a message.

8/27 12:40 PDT  Just tried again.  Still blocked, so, who cares, except others who are just finding these notes.

no message on my answering machine... deleted the number

Called my landline twice in 20 minutes. I didn't answer either call. They didn't leave a message on my machine either. It musnt have been important. Blocking the number now.

i am being harassed by this phone number 1-877-866-8888

that caller is trying to defraud my girlfriend

Nowadays, as both the cell phones and land phones are smarter, you can block these numbers.
On my android phone I use  "Mr. Number" and recently I bought a Panasonic w answering machine - KX-TGH220C - that also has a feature that allows you to block any number you want.
