Spammers

First of all, I have been on the Do Not Call list for years on all of our phones. However, I keep getting calls on both my land-line and my cell all saying the same crap.

"We are with your credit company and would like to talk to you about lowering your interest rate. Please press 1 to talk to a real live person regarding your interest rate or press 2 to be placed on our do not call list. Thank you"

Do you think I've heard this crap a few times?!? I have requested their do not call list many, many times, they just start calling from a different number. I have pushed one and talked to "a real live person" to tell them that I want to be on the do not call list and they hang up on me. Yesterday, one person actually let me talk long enough to tell them to put me on their do not call list and that I had filed a complaint against them through both the Better Business Bureau and the Do Not Call Registry. The more numbers they give me on my caller i.d. the more numbers to add to my report. He just said "Thank you for your time" and politely hung up the phone.

So if MY supposed credit card is calling me to lower my interest rate then why is it that when I call my credit card company that my card is not eligible for review to lower my rate for three-four months?!?

Are you as confused as I am?

This is what my phones are for...friends and family. That's it. Feel free to call me, if you miss me, I'll call you back. If you are company trying to sell me crap that I don't need or can take care of myself....no offense but, take a long walk off of a short pier. Thank you.
