The other companies I have no contact with to share the background on them or their numbers.

Hope this helps.

a complaint was filed for repeated calls from this number even after I told them that take me off from your calling list after advising caller that I am recording the conversation.

All of these companies, IPacesetters, Aspen Media, Lester Mktg, Ebsco, etc., have been calling here for, literally, YEARS, trying to get one person to accept renewal of "free trade publications". No matter how many unanswered messages they leave, no matter how many times they try, their victim is just not interested in their worthless wastes of paper. They're so bad they can't even give them away.

You would think that after several years of unsuccessful calls, they'd get a clue.

no message but keeps calling

I try not to answer numbers I do not recognize...

I only have cell and cells get charged handsomely...

TELEMARKETEERS should NOT call cell !!

If I answer accidently -
I remind them that I am on DNC
some get nasty... so I hang up.

called left no message

unkonwn call-did not pick up

i have gotten calls from ipacesetters, they call on behalf of publishing companies, hired by the companies to add or renew subscriptions. If they have your name  you were given up by a fellow employee, or signed up somewhere  under a company name.   we get about 5 free magazines for our dental office

can't say for sure but it looks like who ever they are are information gatherers for debt collection.

Asked for the owner (mispronounced his last name).  When I asked who was calling she said thank you and hung up.

called twice today. left voice mail once with no message, but can hear people talking in the background.

Received a call from this #. The lady said that she wanted to verify some of my info to be able to send out a free newsletter. She also said that the call was being recorded. I said I was not interested and hung up... Are the words "fool" written on my forehead ? Do they really think I am going to give away from personal info to some stranger who calls me ?

left message that sounded like "elnor", sounded like an Indian man. So maybe a call center from India?

got a call from this company stating they were with Lister and Company. Called it back but they left no information on message. Asked to leave name and number and they would get back to me. weird. Hope there is no charge, annoying.

Same here. It seems that once I block one of these numbers another pops up. I have been told to check phone bill to make sure my pickup was not authorizing a charge.

There is an important distinction that it seems many people overlook.

IF you do business with ANY company and give them contact information, make sure you investigate their privacy policies/terms of service/terms of use.

It is possible that the company calling you is not violating the do not call registry, if they are instructed to contact you under terms you may have inadvertently agreed to with ANOTHER company.

For example, if you make an online purchase from <insert random online company> and provide them with a means of contacting you, they may have in the terms you agree to during the purchase, that you give them permission to have their 'partner' company contact you with offers they think may be of interest.

This may not be the case here, but I have uncovered several instances where this sort of thing does happen, and because the customer of the first company AGREED to the terms without reading them, the first company can hand them over to another company to be contacted.  The only solution in these instances are a) to ask the company contacting you to add you to their own do not call list, and b) ask them to provide the company that passed to them authorization to contact you, so you can instruct them to remove you from the lists they are sending to their 'partner' (or whatever term the agreement used) companies.

Sadly, in many cases it's legal.  Because of a customer's agreement with a company they do business with, and the DNC registry does not prohibit calls based on an established business relationship.

I'm not saying this is the case with this company, but that it is possible they are in compliance with the letter (albeit not the intended spirit I think) of the law.

free magazine subscriptions - they want to increase database w/your phone numberS, fax number, and anything else you are willing to tell them.

received calls on on business phone . Would not speak.

Once or twice a day for the past four days......No message left...Very "professional" of them. THIS IS WITHOUT A DOUBT.........  TELEPHONE HARASSMENT
I am on the DO NOT CALL LIST...and have NO free magazine subscriptions

Hey you idiots....leave a message...If I am interested, I will call you back. If not, I won't.

Why waste your time with repeated calls TO SOMEONE WHO IS NOT INTERESTED?  If I don't call you back, you can cross me off of your list as NOT INTERESTED and go on to another sucker to try to scam

Maybe you don't leave a message because you know you are violating the DNC Law. One time, I will be home..and will answer...and will get all of the information I need to file a complaint with the govt, my local police and the Kentucky States Attorney office...AS I CONSIDER THESE AS HARASSING HANG-UP CALLS

This number called my work asking for the boss.  There's no need to be nasty to them, they're just trying to do a job.  They typically ask for name address and phone number verification, and are free subscriptions to trade magazines.  I am firm with them, I can verify these items, no new info and I don't answer survey questions.  We still get the magazines, and they are a valuable tool to stay current.  I think phone calls are a small price to pay for this.  Yes it's annoying.   Yes they do sell the info, but come on.  It's a business.
