HEIR STOCK IS WAY DOWN SINCE THIS CAMPAIGN STARTED. FAR WORSE THAN THE DROPS ON WALL STREET. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!

Reverse boycott. Together we are destroying their cost/benefit ratio by consuming their service. Their legal model is less vulnerable than their business model. Individual efforts against their legal model have failed for years. This united effort against their business model is succeeding.

When a company can repeatedly call with the intent of getting money their customers can repeatedly answer or call back with the intent of not giving them any. They need people to pay with as little talk as possible. They don't want to talk with people who know they are never going to pay. Be all talk and no pay. Answer when convenient. Call back. Give no information. Verify nothing. Ask as many questions as you can. Answer none.

Don't ignore/block/report them. It doesn't work. These folks want you to ignore them for as long as you can stand to or until you give them something valuable like money or information. Ignoring them is being their good customer. Sending a cease and desist is giving information. It lets them know you are still alive and remain their good customer. Preparing to initiate unlikely individual legal battles is being their good customer.

Be their bad customer. Make them talk to you fruitlessly for as long as they can stand to or until they stop selecting you as their customer. These companies cannot spend seconds much less minutes on the phone with every person who will never send them a dime. But they don't know who that is. You do. That knowledge is power. Every second you can keep their staff on the phone will render their business less profitable giving them a reason to never call you again.

Calling will not reset your SOL. Making a partial payment will.

I like to ask general questions they should but usually won't answer, "May I have the name and address of your agent for service of process?" Calmly and slowly ask them to spell every word in the address. Read it back for verification. Control the pace. If they are rushing then politely ask them to slowly repeat. "Are you a corporation and if so in which state are you incorporated?" Repeat your questions when you don't get direct answers. When they won't answer a question ask, "Would you like to comply with the business and professions codes of your state?" That is usually the point when they hang up on me but if they say they want to comply then begin your questions again.

Repeat while you have the spare time. These folks have many victims and few operators. If everyone calls back but pays nothing the mass auto-dialer business model becomes unprofitable. Don't aide and comfort the enemy by ignoring them. Call! Have a nice long slow friendly chat! Make them hang up first.

Press 2 for Spanish.

For any business, customers who consume the most resources but don't pay (or otherwise add value) become the least desirable. Most businesses will stop (cease and desist) soliciting an undesirable customer. Those that don't stop remain knowingly vulnerable to the actions of their undesirable customers. Few companies can afford to let everyone take a piece of them whenever they want endlessly. For instance they must pay staff to answer everyone's telephone calls which can be placed at your convenience for the joy of it. Call and consume their operator time without paying or giving information. Be a bad customer. The worst customer. Inspire them to invoke their right to refuse you service by not soliciting you.

There are certainly enough victims to take down this company so ignoring/blocking seems downright Orwellian to me. Really? We're just going to passively submit and go with a block list or however we manage ignoring an endless stream of unwanted phone calls day after day? Hell no! Unite or remain conquered. Answer/return every call - become well practiced at keeping these folks on the phone - or count yourself not amongst the free.

Ooh, I like that air horn idea. If I can't find one, maybe one of those personal alarms....  Thanks!

This company has called every day for the last 2 weeks looking for either a Scott Anderson, a Mark Anderson, or a Steven Anderson and I repeatedly tell them that no one by that name lives at this number and that they need to remove my number from their database. Than they want to know my name.. My moma did not raise a fool I don't give my name out to anyone who does not ask for me when they call. (that is like signing a blank piece of paper another thing I don't do).  Anyhow, how can I get these idiots to stop calling my home phone number?  I have told them and blocked their numbers (I guess I am going to have to go through the list and block every single number on the list.  I don't know any of these 3 people (even if I did they don't live here. I mean they call me at inconvient times and the guy tonight when I said no scott lived here simply hung up in the middle of my mid sentence.  So I guess these folks are not in Florida like the number said.  How can they get numbers in Va to look like numbers else where??? Isn't that in its self illegal?? Guess I will have to record them and then notify the State AG and maybe FTC as well.

This company keeps calling me wanting my bank account numbers, where I live, where I work, etc. I have absolutely no debt and never have, so I'm not sure why they have my number and where they got it. The men on the other end hardly speak English, and when asked who they work for, they refuse to say. They, however, will quickly hang up if I threaten to "call the government and report them", which is silly. They also from time to time will make sexually harassing marks, telling me they're going to take me to bed with them, and f*** me so hard I will be unable to walk, and similar things.
