Got a call from (514) 544-3005, reseacrh comapny. requested to have my number removed from their list.We will see. you can reach them at 1-+1 800-701-3137.I beleive that the request done to the goverment to be removed from telemarker list and other annoying people is not working.Who pays for them using my phone?

Said he was a research house and then asked for some one over 18 then asked what year I was born and then just hung up

Once they call, call the number back and leave a message to have your number removed...I did and the caller is Research House and they claim to want to do a survey and not sell anything just there business of doing survey's. Stupid f****rs piss me off :s

I used the 800# y'all have provided and called to have my name taken off their list.

Thanks.  Glad I found you.

the national do not call list is for telemarketers, the exceptions to it are companies you have an existing relationship with, newsapers, and charitable organiations. Companies doing surveys don't fall under this program because they are conducting research, not trying to sell you something. as for their internal do not call list, it depends on the company doing the research and who has hired them to do the research. Policy can be different from company to company. Some comanies put you on do not call as soon as you tell them, but less reputable ones will just hang up and let your number stay in their database and will keep calling.  You can try telling them that you work in market research, cause that usually excludes people from taking part in a survey. If they are really annoying try to escalate the call by asking for their full name and to speak with a supervisor. something else to remember is that in general the people calling you and the company they work for do not create the calling list, it is usually provided to them by their client.

p.s. these guys have started calling my house as well.
