My landline had been bombed for the last two days. Last night we were getting a call every 3 to 5 minutes. Finally just took the phone off the hook. Dang, this is aggravating. Anybody else having the same problem?
Yeah, same as the one for hackers....i have a couple in mindWish laws with stiff penalties would be put in place for all such unsolicited callers...

I press 1 and get them on the phone and waste their time like they're wasting mine by stringing them along until they hang up,
And to be honest the calls have slowed way down.

problem is, politicians use this same tactic at election time........great way not to get my voteWe get at least 2 - 3 of these calls a day, sometimes more.
If a politician could pass a law with harsh penalties to get them to stop, they'd get my vote.
Lately I've been reporting them to the national Do Not Call Registry via their website and surprisingly my calls have dropped off. Maybe it works? I know a lot of folks complain about receiving them but how many have taken the time to file a complaint?
I am glad yours dropped off since registering with the FCC Do Not Call list. I registered my landline and cell phones, but unfortunately I have not seen a drop in scams and solicitations. I recall hearing that there may some legislation to remedy this aggravation.The problem with the do not call list is you may have done some form of business no matter how small with a subsidiary of the robo caller within the last year so they can by law annoy the crap out of you. The laws definitely need improving.

Once you register then you can file complaints. They ask for the number, time of call, nature of call. What the lowlife's don't realize is that they leave all that information on your phone when they call. I doubt 1% of the nuisance calls are turned in. Most of us just complain about them and that's as far as it goes.I am glad yours dropped off since registering with the FCC Do Not Call list.

have you re-upped lately?.....I think that is only good for a yr unfortunately.We get 15-20 calls a day on home phone, and several on our cell phones.
We are on the "do not call" lists for both phones, doesn't do any good.
