I signed up for this free service and for the last 30 hours the phone in
my house (AT&T landline) has been quieter than usual.

I just plain had enough of that crap.


Since I put my number on the national "do not call" list in 2003 I
don't get calls from "for profits."
Doesn't stop "charities."
I never hear the actual call.
There's always a hesitation before they connect.
I just hang up.
If they manage to connect, I say "Sorry, not interested."
And hang up,




I double checked and I'm still on the "no call" list
but places like "Card Services" ignore it.

I reported them to the FTC as it's got to be illegal.


If I do take a robo call, since there is always a delay I just hang up
at once.
