Comments:
It is my opinion that allowing telemarketers to use prerecorded messages instead of using a human to communicate with me is very nerve racking and rude. I have had several of these types of calls and it bothers me. For me to have to waste my time to write a phone number down, call it back and sit there waiting to push a number that may or may not remove me from their data base is rude, time consuming and plain obserd. I have had it happen to me before where some telemarketer has called me and I have listened to the call to push a button to have my number removed from their list, only to have the same company call me every week. THIS WONT WORK!!!! I do not like these calls. If this is allowed to happen, then what is the sense of me being on the do not call list to begin with? PLEASE do not allow these rules to be changed. If I want to know something about a company or if I am interested in their products, I will call the company to inquire. I should not be forced to sit and listed to some pre recorded message from some company, especially in the evening when it is my family time. Thank you
