Comments:
Please do not allow pre-recorded calls of any type or from anyone. At least when a live person calls, you can interrupt them and get off the phone as fast as possible or tell them that you do not want solicitation calls of any kind. If a company uses a pre-recorded message, you have to wait for the whole message and then maybe you have a choice to press a button to talk to someone just to tell them not to solicite you. Sometimes you have to call a phone number that is spoken so fast, you don't have time to write it down so they keep bothering you. The way that I feel about the whole thing is: that I pay for my phone line for my conveince, not theirs. These telemarketers are coming into my home through my phone line, uninvited and unwelcome.......it feels like a violation of my space. They are stealing my time. Anything that you can do to keep these annoying people and especially the recordings out of my home would be greatly appreciated !!!! Most Sincerely, Marti McKinney
