Robocalls

Contributor: Viktor Vysheslav Malkin Viktor Vysheslav Malkin
I received like six in the last hour!

Anyone here fed up with them? I may get up to 15 a day, sometime several of the same ones, some different ones from the same crap politician. I will not vote for any punk ass who uses this technique. Its almost borderline harassment. The only reason they are allowed to do this, is because the morons in power used this crappy technique and they will not let it go. It is probably more ineffective.

Anyone else getting these, anyone else pulling there hair out?

It might be that I have to disconnect the internet every time I get a phone call, but damn it so annoying.

For some strange reason we're not getting as many as we did during the last election. If we were I would unplug the phone until after the election.

I am on the do not call list, so I don't receive many of these calls at all, no political ones that I can ever remember.

I do get them from the school that my kids go to though. If there is a delay or a Holiday coming up or whatever they will call and it's a recording that gives the info. If you don't answer they will continue to call back every FIVE MINUTES until you answer. It's insane. Sometimes I know it's them because no one calls the house line, it's used for work and I don't get incoming calls on there and everyone else calls the cell. So, I know it's the school but I'm busy cooking dinner or something so I don't pick up..finally it gets to the point that I can't take the ringing anymore and have to pick it up.

I only use a cell phone, I refuse to get a land line. And I am very protective of my phone number, I rarely give it to anyone. So I haven't had much trouble with this at all. But I think it's ridiculous for machines to make phone calls. I won't even answer something like that.

I am on a do not call list also, but these are exempt from the tele marketer list. There was a site that was for stoping robo calls, it was on CNN and other news sites and they all said it worked well, but not for me. I am still getting them lol

You can bet that if the politicians think that robo-calling cell phones might possibly help them they'll write themselves an exemption and make the phone companies turn over your number.

The do not call list up here has a web site you can report numbers or companies to that manage to call you if you are registered to it.

Since joining it, I rarely get them anymore.. thank god.

We just had our election and I have never heard of politicians doing robocalls. That is funny
