I'm sick of telemarketers or market researchers calling me. They are selfish. They don't care if my husband just died. They are only interested in what they want.

The email to get you taken off the list doesn't work. I've done it, and still receiving calls. I called after the last one and left a message for the president, Bruce Fohr, telling him I would report the company to the BBB. I got another one today. So I contacted the BBB and filed a complaint. I also emailed every one of the people on the company roster and told them that I had filed a complaint and that I would be parked in their office to visit with Mr. Fohr this next week, and if he didn't see me, I would be on the side walk in front of their business, which is legal, with a derogatory sign and I'd go as far as taking out a large ad in the paper about their harassment. I'm now trying to obtain a list of the companies that hire them to let them know about the amount of complaints they've received and to check out how they run their "professional research". The company recording says that they don't fall under the do no call list because they are not a "telemarketing" business. No they're just in the HARASSMENT business, which is what I told the BBB. My mother is going through chemo treatments and when she explained this to the bimbo on the phone, she was harassed further. I'd like to know what professional training seminar teaches you to harass chemo patients? This is no way to run a marketing company. You know they pay these people peanuts, which is about what they're worth. File a complaint with the BBB, they'll get tired of hearing about FMR [***]!

did NOT answer

Unfortunately they will never be prosecuted. You need to look into details of the do not call list it doesn't apply to them because they're not selling anything.

Okay, I'm not under the employment of these guys or anything, I just know how technology works.Let's take the ol' wayback machine to 1983. I'm sure some of you were alive back then, yes? A movie came out, called Wargames. Remember that movie? Remember how the nerd found a way to dial into the supercomputer? That's a technique called "wardialing". The computer dials a set of randomly generated phone numbers, looking for any pickups that have a computer at the other end.This is how telemarketers, etc, get your phone number. It isn't some vast conspiracy where your phone company is selling your phone numbers (did you think phone scammers would actually pay for something they could get for free?). It's a random number dialer. Which is why one of the most popular tools on the phone customer's end is a simple box (I forget what it's called), that when you program it to activate on the caller ID of the offending caller, will play that old three tone disconnect sound from the phone company, which is what their software listens for. When it picks up those tones, it automatically scratches you off the list.Again, I don't know what the box is sold as, I just know it exists.

Received a phone call from Ashton, some lady chosen to call me back from FMR, due to the email I sent to all staff members. She apologized and said that they can find out who the surveyor was that harassed my mother and she would be reprimanded and retrained. HA! I asked if they would be doing that to the rest of the callers who harassed us as well? She tried to convince me that this was isolated incident and that they are a Media Research firm, blah blah blah. I said obviously you haven't seen the ENDLESS complaints about your callers, the harassment they dish out, the fact that the calls are coming late at night, the 4 letter words they've encountered. Apparently they have because she knew that their home phone numbers had been posted. Then what the hell? I told her I had filed with the BBB and that several others had done the same, and that they have no right to call people on the do not call list, which she responded that they are a "Media Research" firm and not a telemarketer. I told her if we're harassed in our homes with unasked for and unwarranted calls from co's that we are not doing business with and they are attempting to get information from us, then they DO fall under the guidelines. I told her I had done the removal email, left messages, and also asked the caller to take me off the list, all of which were ignored. I also told her that there was no way they got our number from some other company as we do not give out the land line, only my cell (also on the do not call list). I told her I was following through on obtaining a list of their clients in order to inform them of how FMR does business and to direct the co's to this site and others to see the endless amount of complaints they have received. I also told her that if we receive one more call from their company I would be at their doorstep with a police officer for harassment. I guess my email pissed them off! Keep complaining about FMR Associates, keep letting the BBB know, we'll get their doors shut once and for all.

This number was good and they apologized for any inconvenience... thank you

What kind of company hires mealy-mouthed trolls to skim consumer complaint message boards to offer huffy pseudo-sincere advice on how people should be glad they got bothered at home and have their privacy invaded?

I love it!I'm on the no call list but still receive frequent unwanted calls. FMR just called, I looked at the caller ID readout and didn't pick up. Although these pests don't give up immediately, that usually does the trick over time. Unless their persistence deteriorates into harrassment, I don't want to talk to anyone or provide my email online.

to stop them from calling send email to remove@fmrassociates.com in subjuect line type remove and your number. leave body blank
