Atlas Contractors Threats, cursing, continued calling Tempe Arizona
I've received no less than 20 calls from this guy in the last 9 months. I've asked repeatedly to be put on their do-not-call list but it never works. The first time I spoke with him last year I was dumb enough to purchase two fire extinguishers. The actual supplier's information is on the invoice so I called them and told them to make sure this guy never calls again. That didn't work either.
It is always the same guy who calls acting like he's some long-lost friend or saying "You're a hard guy to get a hold of!" then making small talk about the weather. Then he tries his stupid sales pitches.
On more than one occasion he's threatened to call again and again until I buy something, and twice now he's threatened to give out my number to other salespeople so that they will also call multiple times. He cusses and insults when you try to get him off the phone. I've had it with this guy.
He calls my cell phone, which is the phone I do business with. He costs me time and money. I want to know what can be done about this. Can this company be sued? I don't want money. I just want to never have him call again.

You are complaining about a company that sells products business to business. For one your number is listed and is public information since your advertising your business. Second there is no do not call list for businesses. You can complain all you want but as long as you run an ad for your business someone will buy your name and sell the lead source. This is America and if your open for incoming sales calls then your open for incoming calls to sell you. If you dont like it close your business and shut down, otherwise stop your incesant whining. Unbelievable Americans whining like Communist China.

I work for a company that has the same name, Atlas Contractors, as this company in Arizona. We are a heavy contruction contractor in Nevada. Just want to get it out there that we ARE NOT this company. Unfortunately we get calls from time to time from very upset people from all over the US, that have been contacted and treated horribly over the phone from "Atlas Contractors". Recently our general manager contacted the Arizona Attorney General's office, and was told it was an FCC matter. He contacted the FCC, and was told they needed to receive at least 3 complaints from different companies about the harassing calls. I know I have referred at least 6 to 7 companies to the FCC, but apparently "Atlas Contractors" is still calling.
This company also goes by "West Builders Supply" and something like "Cal Pacific", you will see all those names on the rip off report.
I find it hard to believe a company does business in this manner, it is deplorable.
Best of luck to you, and others.
