https://community.qvc.com/t5/Community-Chat/Doe-Anyone-Know-Who-s-Included-On-Do-Not-Call-List/m-p/107842#M51450 <P>It seems lately I've been inundated with requests for donations by non-profits by phone. Does anyone know if they're exempt from the Do Not Call list?</P> <P>It's not that I don't do charitable contributions but some call every couple weeks and won't easily take no for an answer. I'm retired and money is as tight for me as with everyone else. I would like to freely determine the charities I support and the amount I can give. It seems that once you donate to one you receive requests from every other charity in existence - they obviously share lists. At times I have to get rude to have them understand I must say no at this time.</P> <P>Yesterday I got a call from one that I would normally not support asking for a $25 pledge. When told him I couldn't afford that he asked if I could give $10. I was on my way out and finally agreed, which I certainly regret. Then someone else came on the phone and asked if I were really going to honor this pledge and when would it be sent. I've really had enough.</P> Sun, 21 Aug 2011 20:23:36 GMT mysterylady 2011-08-21T20:23:36Z https://community.qvc.com/t5/Community-Chat/Doe-Anyone-Know-Who-s-Included-On-Do-Not-Call-List/m-p/107842#M51450 <P>It seems lately I've been inundated with requests for donations by non-profits by phone.
