PLEASE do NOT allow recorded messages to call our phones. I do NOT want to talk to a computer and I do NOT want a computer talking to me. The National Do Not Call LIst is wonderful! I am perfectly capable of dialing the telephone when I want to talk to a company or an individual. If I need help, I will call the operator. That kind of call is invasive, intrusive, & I won't order anything from them just because they called me to make their spiel! I know everyone needs to make a living, but I, also, have the right to not have to deal with unwanted solicitations in my own home. I don't let someone come in my front door if I don't want him there & I should have that same control over my phone. I don't want the calls; I will hang up on the calls; I will not buy those product or services anywhere from any company that makes those calls. Please let me decide who I want to talk to and who I do not want to talk to on MY phone in MY home. Thank you.
