Dumb question: No call list

    I got a landline for the first time in about 3 years last week. I get close to 5 telemarketing calls a day. How the hell do I get on the no-call list?

    Click on this link..... it works like a charm.
    Now all we get is the occasional survey call and a non-profit once in a while, but it's cut the "sales" calls down to basically zero.

    I tried that with a bunch of my family's numbers, but it never worked. I registered all the numbers when the list first came out a few years ago. What am I doing wrong?
     
  5. I didn't know BigRed was 19.

    Those jokes were funny once, but 50 times a day, not so much. Same thing with jokes about my height. There are plenty of things to make fun of me for, find something new.

    Not a problem, and I'm 29 and married, thanks :) Ha ha.

    Companies you do business with can still call you, as can non-profits (a very wide definition) and anyone not selling something.

    Do NOT register your cell phone with a no-call list.
    Most companies will not know you exist until you do it.
