    I really don't know what I've done wrong. These idiots are calling me every day almost. I recieved another call today. I mean, how many times do I have to call them scammers and hang up on them before they get the message?
    Maybe you signed up for the "suckers list" or a good friend signed you up..

    Not only that, Rich. I must be real high on the suckers list to get 3 calls in one week. But, I tried to get them to move me down a couple of spots.

    Your calling them?
    Now that is a turn of events!
    Maybe I'll try that with the bill collectors.
    "Call me again and I'll put you on speed dial for a week."

    I guess richinrockville needs to call them and complain about being neglected.

    Mine have slowed to one every few weeks since I installed a truecall and just set it to block all international calls, but a few are managing to get past it

    Mike, you're like most lawyers I know. They will take anything out of context to make it sound like what they want. The entire quote would have made it quite obvious.

    Does it have a setting to block bill collectors?

    It just struck me as extremely funny. I'm still laughing.

    Turning the tables on them would be great.
    In mass calling to their phone lines.

    If we could find their phone numbers or better their website and all go there at the same time, it would crash their system, or tie up the phone lines.

    I had a good laugh about all this above. It would make a beautiful sketch by Mr. Bean.
    The thing i am surprised about is that they tell you they KNOW something is wrong
    with your machine but then have to ask you to give them access to it. I don't think
    i could control myself and keep talking to them. Ah well .....
