The do not call list does not prevent companies you have a business relationship with from calling you. I was a Verizon Wireless subscriber at the time this call center was calling on behalf of Verizon about my service. That's a business relationship, they don't have to check the list.

They should be penalized if you are on a DNC list. Yeah… either a telemarketer or machine automated dialer. They should be penalized if you are on a DNC list.

This call center is breaking all kinds of telemarketing laws. If someone can track down the actual call center, they can be reported to the FTC.

It has happened before. It comes in cycles. Yes, it's Discover Card call center. They just won't stop. Every month or so, this goes on for a week or more. I even plead with them to take me off their list-- but to no avail. I am on the Do Not Call National List. I am getting these same calls from this number 5 times a day now.

It's probably a call center that handles multiple companies, but I think they were calling me to sell some kind of Discover (card) merchant protection service. Yeah, they eventually stopped calling.

The same number has been calling me 3-4 times a day for a couple of weeks now, and same thing--I can't find out who it is, the few times I've actually been able to answer when they call I just get weird background noise before I'm abruptly disconnected, when I call back there's just annoying music, and there's no way to keep them from calling over and over and over..... Did they stop calling you? Hey–I found your blog by googling this number, and I was just wondering if you ever found out anything else about this.

I received a very threatening letter about phone calls someone's receiving... apparently they found my blog by searching this 800 number and assumed I own it.
