Thread: Fyi

Cell phone numbers went public in Sept. and were released to telemarketers and soon you may start receiving sales calls. To prevent this , call this number from your cell phone 888-382-1222. This is the NATIONAL DO NOT CALL REGISTRY CALL LIST. It blocks your number for 5 years. You must be calling from the number you want BLOCKED.. I have already done mine and my wifes phones since I have had 3 calls today alone.

Just got a call frol the cable company...a "courtesy call"

I have a whistle at my desk and ask them a question in a real low voice where they ahve to ask again. That way I KNOW their listening real good and then blow that whistle in their ear. They're never on the phone when I ask if they heard that. LOL

I blocked 'em last year.

I think they actually went public quite a while back...I did the block thing last year

Thanks for the info...I just blocked both of mine.

I am on the "do not call list" and I still get those damn solicitors calling me every once in a while. Don don that is one of the funniest things I have ever heard! I think I might start carrying around a whistle too

What I like is when someone calls and wants to sell you an extended warrenty on something. I had one call about my fridge one time. They kept on and on after I told them I didn't want it so I Really got them. Told them Why in the
He double L would I want a warrenty when I was a multi millionaire and if I wanted a new fridge, I'd open my wallet and go buy one. I got a uhhhhh, uuuhhhhh, Sorry for bothering you sir and they hung up
