315-627-7139

This number shows up as having called me several times a day.  But if it's that important, why don't they leave a message.  I use PhoneTray Free and have since blocked any future calls but wanted to report this.  My guess it's a new telemarketer working from home.

They've called me 3 times today.  Never leave a message.

I got a call from this number tonight. I thought it was odd getting a call from Minoa, NY and having relatives in NY, I answered. It was some guy pushing a Showtime package for Cox Cable. I didn't trust it because a)  caller ID was NOT from Cox Cable and b) He did not have a business name on the caller ID.

same here, who is Minoa ??  I don't know you.  If you have something important to say, leave a message

Let voice mail pickup, caller left no message.  Caller ID had only phone #.

This number belongs to a telemarketer that got your personal info from Cox Communications! Cox sold you out!
What to do?
First off report this to the www.donotcall.gov site! Then call Cox. Tell them the calls MUST stop! If you get another call from this number or (410) 774-8194 tell Cox they are fired! Tell them to come get their equipment and you want the cable REMOVED from your home.Tell them you will fill the conduit to the street so they can NEVER come back.They were calling us 3 times a day, DAILY! I got a call back from a supervisor, he promised the calls will stop...THEY DID! If you dont file a complaint or call Cox, IT WILL CONTINUE!!! You need to take them on and stop them....

Finally answered this morning ... caller represents Cox Communications ... had my current features ... offered a special upgrade package.   I declined and called my local office.  They confirmed they do have outside sources doing these calls but they also agreed to remove my name from the calling list.

Should be  Minoa NY

I too am getting these calls.  I finally answered.  It is an outsourced telemarketing firm calling on "behalf" of Cox Communications.  The guy on the phone rattled on quite fast about all the features I had and what he is going to upgrade me to.  I then stopped him in mid-sentence and told him I had previously worked for Cox Communications for 5 years and he needn't explain any services further.  I also informed him that I am on the "Do Not Call" list with Cox.  It states as such right on my account.  He then became argumentative and stated that I had a business agreement with Cox and thus he has a right to call me.  I then told him the next call I made was going to be to Cox Communication to inform them that he was originally (and erroneously) identified himself as a Cox employee.

He then disconnected the call on me.

I got a call from this number at 9PM PST on 6/4/2010.  What's interesting is I was watching a Starz preview on the Encore network at exactly the moment they called.  They identified themselves by first saying they wanted to thank me for being a "Loyal Cox Customer".  It was at least a half minute into the call before they tried to hustle Starz network.  I have received at least a half dozen such calls on "behalf" of Cox over the past couple of years, and it is always someone hustling the Starz network.  I have told Cox repeatedly I do not want such calls to come in, and they have promised repeatedly the calls will stop.  They don't.

I am concerned because it seems like too much of a coincidence that the call came in related to a preview to a service that I was watching at that moment in time.  Does this mean that the telemarketers are dialed in to what we are watching?  What does this mean to our right of privacy?

There's no good alternative to Cox in my area, because I depend on their Internet service and the Satellite TV providers are just as sleazy in their marketing practices.  But this baloney has to stop, and the only way to get it stopped is to target the advertisers that support the channels Cox carries.  We do have choices when we shop, and if Cox realizes it is going to lose revenue based on its sleazy marketing practice of selling its customers out to telemarketers, maybe they will quit bothering people.

This number called Las Vegas on 7/20/10 at 7:09PM with no one answering at the other end. It did not disconnect on its own either. I will simply block this number if they call again, with my carrier's designated feature. Do not care why they are calling, and 'do not call' registry is not something reliable anyway. If everyone decides to block these annoying calls, they'll eventually stop. We probably just need to .... 'get used to it'.....and move on.

Called the number back. Message stated they are called Total Solutions and does not apply to "do not call" lists.
