Who are they, they call all the time but I do not answer?

Im fed up of this damn number calling here!! Normally they call when no one is home.. every day pretty friggen much! We have answered a couple of times, including last night, and u can hear sounds in the background for a moment, like its a call centre or something... then *CLICK!* disconnected. They interrupted our movie time twice in a row last night.. friggen stupid.. I called the number back hoping to get a person on the line.. but I DID get a voicemail!! So I left a message with my number, and told them to STOP CALLING HERE!

Yes, it is from University of Waterloo. She calls me at 8:30pm. I am a 2007 UW grad and my father had donated a little amount of money from 2003 to 2008.

They call u and not leave a message. They want to know if u home or not so they can rob you!

While I didn't work at this call center during my studies there I know lots of people who did and I worked at a different call center doing research- not soliciting donations. Just be admit- not rude- that you want off the list. Its not like these students are singling you out. They are just given names and numbers to get through during their shift. Turnover is quite high because it is a crappy job and people make you feel like scum for doing it- but it pays the bills. There aren't many places that will hire for 4months at a time to accommodate co-op. Most don't want to be there. They have to. And it isn't the same kid calling you every time, its just the lucky one who happens to be on shift.Would you really yell and swear at people soliciting donations for cancer? or natural disaster victims? so please don't yell at these students. They can only ask you for money because technically the school is a not-for-profit like a religious institution, a hospital or any other charity.But just hanging up won't stop them. You do need to talk to whoever is on the other end if you want the calls to stop.

This is University of Waterloo, trying to solicit Alumni donations.  They call fequently; we don't answer.
