Any Idea How To Get All These Damn Credit Card Companies From Calling?

[BigFish]

They call day after day...phone starts ringing right after 5:00...same time literally every friggin night! For like 3 weeks straight, every night, same damn time...American Express calling to inquire about one damn thing or another.....finally I picked the phone up and blasted them!!! "Do you have to keep calling over and over, night after night for cryin' out loud?" I asked! What the "F"! So they stopped! Now last night...another friggin strange number....tonight they called 3 F-in times so on the 3rd call I picked it up and then hung up on them!!! Then about 15 minutes later hey call again.... I pick it up and really blast the bastards!!!! There must be some law against them calling over and over and over!!!!! Any bright ideas?

Yup---get yourself on the national "do not call" registry.

About 30 seconds of your time, and a click on an e-mailed link they send you to confirm that it's really you asking.

Or, you could do what I did before, since wasting their time for 2 minutes means 3-4 fewer calls. Get them talking, put the phone down and let them keep talking, and if you have a cordless, walk into the bathroom, put it close to the bowl, flush and then hang up

Get a air horn and blast their ears off.

I did it and haven't gotten a call since.

do not call list is an absolute waste of time. I've submitted the forms on about 10 of them now and not a single thing is done. MA state atty general even had the balls to send me a form letter acknowledging the problem with the company but not enough people complain so they won't do anything. WHAT good is a law if they won't enforce it.
