so far this morning I have received 4 calls,  I don't answer when I see the number.  I am also on the DO NOT CALL list.  Why does this keep happening?????

Try to understand what people are telling you ... if you call us 10 times and we do not answer, we do not want to deal with you ... if only we all had fancy phones where we could block thousands of these pestering numbers so that we do not hear a ring at allWe do not care if it is your job or not ... if you know your company called us several times already, not to mention every OTHER company doing the same thing, then you cannot expect us to be all happy about it ... when I have a cold and want to sleep in, I get awoken several times and can't rest ...same as after a long day at work where I deal with clients who also yell at me, I want to relax when I get home ... if I see you called me several times that day and then call me in the evening when I need to get dinner on the table, chores done etc., and you call me AGAIN, do not expect me to be niceand when I say "you call me"  I mean your company ... all these companies care about is making a quota, and do not care if we are busy or sick or just tired ... you make us run for the phone and when we get there, there is no ID on the phone and half the time no one answers... I do not care if your dialler takes a while to get to you... why are you making that MY problem?Give this feedback to you bosses ...tell them what you read here ... we do not answer because we are not interested.... and by the way, not putting the organisation's name on the display when you call is a violation of the CRTC terms and they can get a huge fine ... I am one of those people who reports organisations like yours for violations ... just because you call yourself a charity does not mean that you can bend the rules.

These jerks called me 5 times in the past 2 weeks.
There is never anyone at the other end.
How can we make them stop?

I am trying to decide if you are sarcastic or not.... keep doing it this way?  they call and do not leave messages, and many report getting dead air ... this is not the way to get donations ... they are not doing their charity any favours by calling 5 times a day just to harrass people by making them run for a phone and then  no one talks to them

I got a cold call from the CF people in the summer looking for donations .. when I answered the phone, I had a polite person explain what they were doing etc., and I told them to send a truck over ... I emptied my basement and garage of items I had been hanging onto for years .... I would deal with them again simply because they had their name on the display;  talked to me when I answered;  were courteous, and have not called me since then, which I assume means that they realise that they should wait about a year to see if I accumulated more unwanted items.  They also provided their business card when they stopped by with their phone number and web site so I can contact them .... this is how you collect items for a charity ... well done CF :)

you hit the nail on the head with that ... we are here to see who keeps calling since they do not leave messages;  nothing wrong with that

to call people losers because we get home and see they called several times and didn't leave a message shows a lack of intelligence

if you don't want to see people's messages.... browse elsewhere :)

They started calling my house since yesterday afternoon and no one would talk...They already called 3 times this morning, so i decided to google the #, and found this site.I think a total of 7-8 calls since yesterday afternoon.
