Some snitty woman called asking for my boss, but she didn't even get her name right. She asked for Sandy David (Sandy is my boss's first name, David is the CEO's first name). I corrected her and then asked for her information. She sighed loudly (as if this was an annoying question) and said "Makayla." At this point she was getting on my nerves, so I wasn't so friendly with my next question - "What company are you calling from?" She then said CRANE COMMUNICATIONS (or maybe Crain?), NOT ASPEN. I put her on hold but she hung up after a few seconds. I tried calling back and I got a recording for Aspen Marketing. I HATE TELEMARKETERS!! 90% of the time they are rude, short, or have the thickest accents I cannot understand. If these people are being trained to call strangers and sell them things, you'd think in their training they would get extenseive lessons in etiquette, interpersonal skills, and communication. If somebody calls me and is polite and friendly, I am polite and friendly right back! I love having pleasant phone convos! But more often than not, telemarketers are jerks.

I called the 800 number. If you follow the instructions you will get nowhere. I punched in ext 101 and got "Michelle". After she told me they were legit, operating within the law, etc, I asked to be removed and she claimed it would be done. I will reply to this site if that does not happen.Because they are not selling anything (right, just getting leads for others to sell), they claim they do not have to abide by the DNC list.

I'm on the national do not call list, calling my number for the purpose of telemarketing is against the law. I won't report this time, but if I am contacted by this company again, I will.

Caller Id: "out of area" Enough of a Call to leave a Voice Mail, which was just a click.

Something to keep in mind about all these continuing bothersome calls for surveys, so called charities and so called charity pickups despite asking them to remove you from their list:Call centers have sprung up in my town that make use of the survey and the charity loophole around the do not call list; they have been a headache for law enforcement, emergency services, neighboring businesses and residential areas. When I ask any patrolling officer in town about these call centers, they are quick to state their frustrations about the criminal activity that some of these call centers have brought into the area. Several law enforcement agencies regularly visit some of these call centers looking for warrant arrests etc. I have heard from sources including from frustrated employees that work for these call centers complaining about the drug activity, vandalism of cars and neighboring businesses, break-ins and theft, drinking while on the job, smoke breaks are actually marijuana breaks, drunk driving, very dangerous driving, tons of tossed out litter of empty liquor containers, trash, food etc. I’ve even heard that the mangers are also involved in criminal activities and have even preyed on their legitimate employees who are simply trying to eek out a living on horrible wages. Also the operators are untrained in a very high turn around, poorly managed and dysfunctional work environment. Also realize this when you call a companies’ customer service line and get horrible service from the call center that’s been hired by the company. One time while on a call with our bank’s customer service, the operator was so loopy that it required ending the call and calling again to try and get someone else to help, think about that when you call a companies’ customer service and the conversation gets odd, off the wall and obtuse – you may be talking to an operator that’s drunk or on something. After 6 months of getting a different and wrong answer to our ongoing problem each time we called our bank’s call center, we gave up and closed the account.With so little police left in our town due to cutbacks, they can’t always respond to vandalism and break-ins when it’s witnessed as they have their plate full responding to the major emergencies, this allows the criminal activity free reign, the neighborhood becomes the hood. Some insurance companies require proof of private security patrols before they will honor a claim due to vandalism or theft leaving the neighboring businesses off guard and uncovered. These businesses also have the added cost to hire private security, install security systems/monitoring, upgrade lighting etc. Then there are the dangers and headaches to the nearby businesses employees such as their cars being vandalized or broken into. Some businesses simply give in, pickup and move out of town.One of my neighbors owns a call center and he requires that his operators are bonded, but I guess there’s no laws requiring this – there should be. Right now in my town it seems like anybody can start up a call center and hire questionable labor for cheap without much regulation.I my efforts the past several years to try and get something done, I am most struck by the fact that there’s no real help, everyone is more worried about being sued than dealing with the obvious problem - you are on your own while the town is taken over by the crime these call centers bring into the neighborhoods....

You are full of crap.Telemarketers are second in annoyance and respect to mass murderers.Go away. Get a real job.

DO anything to companies? Actually, the BBB works with the company and the complainant to try to resolve issues. Yelp not only keeps nearly all negative reviews front and center, but buries positive reviews in a "Not Recommended" section, and even if you can flat-out PROVE that the complainant is lying (with email exchanges, etc.), Yelp blames their algorithms and says about the complaint, "That's their experience." Some complaints are legitimate and some are just harassment. We (a handyman company) had a man complain on Yelp that we were ***trying to keep him from finishing his project*** and that's why our quote was so high! Some folks just have a screw loose and no handyman can fix that! But we complained to the BBB in San Francisco, Yelp's home town, about Yelp, and they facilitated several exchanges between my company and Yelp trying to effectuate a solution. So BBB really does try. Yelp just rakes in the ad dollars.

They called just know and said something about being from online retail something or other. I think it is just some company that is trying to scam people for money. I don't know how they got my name or number but I too asked them to take my number off.

People who try to tell other people what is legal should inderstand the difference between "highered" and "hired".$50 says you are sitting on your fat butt drawing welfare watching Jerry Springer. ;-)

They have found my cell phone number and dial it multiple times a day. This is why my cell phone is set to vibrate and I keep it in my purse and the purse in another room. Problem solved. If they want to waste their time trying to make me pick up the phone, that is their decision. Mine is to ignore them until Jesus returns.
