Title:     OWNER

Called the number back, the lady (she wouldn't identify herself) that answered was pleasant and didn't ask for my name or any financial information only my number. She said she would take me off of their dialer. We'll see on that one...

They appear to be a legit company, why they have a dialer with no one on the calls it makes is beyond me.

her name was most likely melissa

BE ADVISED: Managing partner of About Air LLC, dba Abode Air, dba Adobe Air, is Ronald Colen Dew.  Ronald has a lengthy rap sheet involving drugs and weapons convictions.

Telephone numbers used to make "marketing" calls are:
(480) 379-1000 through 1014

This business has numerous liens, state and federal tax liens, and judgments filed against the company assets.

I get called at least 3 times a week from Adobe Air.  Always differnt phone numbers.  I have asked them many times to take me off their list and ever said that I would report them.  Tonight I got another call and this time I said that I needed an new system.  I said that I would have to call them back because I am the way out.  I got a name of Steve to call.  I am going to get more info then report them to the Attorney General.

Just remember the name of the company is ABode Air (not ADobe Air).  ABBBBBBode (not ADDDDobe)  Adobe Air is actually a reputable company.  ABODE Air is purposely using the play on letters to their benefit.  I did the same thing....my mind read ADOBE Air which is a good company.  Then I looked again and alas, realized my mistake.  

BBB has revoked their association with ABODE Air.  The owner Steve Drew is a felon from what I've read.  

I continually tell them to take me off their calling list and then the caller hangs up....never an apology or an assurance they would.  I've never been able to call them back to talk to a person.  

DON"T do business with ABODE AIR.  Someone somehow has to shut them down.

Notice! This is for Abode Air, not Adobe Air.

Got a letter today from the Office of Arizona Attorney General. I have filed a number of BBB complaints about this business. The normally worthless BBB has finally provided some worth, since the Attorney General contacted me by seeing my complaint with the BBB. The state of AZ is filing a lawsuit against Abode Air that will prohibit them from EVER soliciting consumers by phone AGAIN. Wanna help stick it to them? The state wants as many witnesses as they can get. Anyone who has been called by them after asking them to stop calling, and anyone on the Do Not Call list that has been called by them. If you are on the DNC list and have been called, print out a copy of your Do Not Call registration verification (go to www.donotcall.gov and click on "Verify a Registration") and bring it with you to testify at the hearing.

"If you are interested in appearing as a witness for the state, in it's lawsuit against Abode Air, please contact Diane Davenport at the Attorney General's office at 602-542-7763" The hearing is scheduled for Sep 8th at 9:30 before Judge Burke of the Maricopa County Superior Court.

So... EXCELLENT NEWS! I am so going to be there as a hostile witness. Paybacks for all those friggin calls.
