Online Directory Compiling Cell Phone Numbers -- Maybe Even Yours

I would comment but someone might get my number!

Give people the rejection hotline's "telemarketers Nightmare" number instead lol

I got a new cell phone number, and now Im getting calls (i think bill collector calls) looking for someone else. Its agravating!

I get weird calls on my cell all the time. I just ignore them.

I put both my home and my cell phone numbers on the national do not call list . I haven't had any problems since

The national Do Not Call Registry

Put your cell numbers and if you have a fax/phone or a house phone on the National No Call List. I did when that first started and didn't have a promblem till the 5 years was up last year. You have to go back in and redo it. It took 30 days for it to start again. I was getting faxes and calls during the 30 days. Just say I'm on the National No call List, Do Not call this number again and hang up. Cut them short. That list does work and it's so nice!

Cell phones are exempt from being called. When they call and I say it's a cell phone I've been told "we will remove your number, we can't call cell phones". And surprisingly enough the calls have cut down tremendously.

Razzi is right... use the Do Not Call list. It works even for Cellphones.

I try to at least be polite when telemarketers call my home number, but if this happens on my cell phone, I will offer not a second of my time. This is the lowest of the slime tricks.

i get the same things i would like to say private number un listed but they still call wrong numbers

>I am already getting people calling trying to >sell mr things...is there no escaping the >dreaded telemarketer?


No problems here - I just told everyone that if they call from a blocked or private number I'm not answering the call. Most telemarketer organizations don't show the number on the caller ID so if it's a blocked, private, or number I don't recognize I just don't answer.

Don't answer if you don't recognize the number. Telemarketers hang up before they get your voicemail. That way you won't have any charge!

don't call me. i'm away on vacation with my drinking water

don't call me. i'm away on vacation with my drinking water. . . .

besides i'm voting for ralph wiggums for prez.

1. Use the do not call list as others have said. It is useful. AND IT WORKS.

2. I give out false information if I'm in a really pissy mood. Maybe your ex boyfriend/girlfriend?

in response to sandra w's comments, who said that were forced to have cell phones?? Believe it or not, there was a time when people walked around without them, I think they were called the 80's? I don't mean to be insulting to sandra but I know a lot of people who believe the same thing. Cell phones are a luxury, not a requirement. Were paying way too much for them because the cell phone companies know that people have panic attacks when they don't have them. With today's technology, it should cost about $14.99 a month for unlimited calling from anywhere, but its as simple as supply and demand, were willing to pay any price for them so companies charge through the roof for it.

Just an FYI

Cell phone numbers going public tomorrow

REMINDER....all cell phone numbers are being released to telemarketing companies
tomorrow and you will start to receive sale calls.

....YOU WILL BE CHARGED FOR THESE CALLS

To prevent this, call the following number from your cell phone:
888-382-1222
It is the National DO NOT CALL list. It will only take a minute of your time
It blocks your number for five (5) years. You
must call from the cell phone number you want to
have blocked. You cannot call from a different
phone number.
HELP OTHERS BY PASSING THIS ON TO ALL YOUR FRIENDS.
It take about 20 seconds

Put your phone number on the National Do Not Call list!! It's definitely worth it! You can do it online in a couple easy steps. You can register both your home phone number as well as your cell phone number. And in the event you do get a call, request that your phone number be taken off their list and they're supposed to do it. The website for the Do Not Call list is: www.donotcall.gov


Good luck

According to FCC regulations, telemarketers are NOT allowed to call cell phones BECAUSE of the per minute charges. That means that the next time someone calls you, you can threaten to report them to the FCC. I have done this since the first time I got a cell phone back in the 90's and it never fails.

I am 100% serious about this. Try it. Don't take the time to put your number on any Do Not Call list. Just tell the telemarketers you will report them. On the other hand, if you get one of those recorded messages, take the phone number and REPORT THEM TO THE FCC!
