Caller
Complaints
I’ve just
about had it with telemarketers! They’re calling more frequently
and at inappropriate times. Plus, with the idea they're trying to
scam me looming in the back of my mind, I'm about ready to stop answering
the phone!
But now, there
is something we all can do about it: complain! Not only can you vent
your frustrations about a specific company calling your house or cell
phone, but you can research the number and see what other people have
to say about them as well.
In the middle
of the page, you’ll see a search field. Just type in the number
you want to look up and click Search. That will bring up a page that
displays the number of times it has been searched, the complaints
for the number, as well as, a complaint form for you to fill out.
Beneath the search
field, you will see columns for recently searched numbers divided
up by the last seven days, the last 30 days and all the time. Below
the columns, you’ll see the color code for the bullets by the
numbers.
On the side menu,
you will find three sections:
File a Complaint
– This one will take you directly to the complaint form. If
you scroll past the form, you will find helpful tips about how to
give the best detail in your complaint.
Stop Telemarketers
– Here you will find five articles that will not only make you
more aware of what is going on, but also how you can fight back. I
am incredibly sick of spoof numbers! 000-000-0000 is what will show
up on your caller ID, which is simply an attempt to hide the caller’s
identity. I get anywhere from three to six of those kinds of calls
a day. Talk about annoying! I highly recommend reading the second
article in this section, as it explains in more detail how spoof IDs
work.
About Caller Complaints
– Here you will learn all about why this Web site was started
and what it does.
I hope this site
helps you out with your telemarketer problem as much as it did for
me!
