Do Not Call Listing ~ A Question

I know this has been discussed before, but I can't find the thread.  Our landline number was changed two years ago and lately we have bombarded with the telemarketing attacks.  What is my recourse for this stupidity?  I don't see anything on the website......

Nomorobo works for us.  The other threads on this topic also recommend certain phone sets that let you block calls.

Re: Do Not Call Listing ~ A Question

I am being bombarded by calss, several of them are 1-800-900 ****.  How does one block an 800 number ?

 

Seriouslt, there needs to be legislation and further help from the phone companies.  But of course if they get rid of telemarketers, they would loose money.  I report every call to DNC, but it rarely helps

You might check with your phone company to see if they have anything to block or discourage solicitations.  Mine does and it's extremely effective.

Re: Do Not Call Listing ~ A Question

Hi @SydneyH

 

I use Do NOt Call and every call that is unwanted I just dial  do not call and it takes you thru the steps to block that number.  You can also put your phone number in as a do not call. It has a complaint option to report a certain number.1-888-382-1222

Juniebugz, I tried to use your link but found out that AT&T does not yet work with Nomorobo.  At least I tried, so thanks for your link.
