Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?
For the past six months, we have been receiving annoying, automated calls offering to lower our credit card interest rates. The calls have become increasingly more frequent and interrupt our lives regularly. The call offers two menu selections, one to speak with a representative and one to take advantage of the offer.

Two weeks ago, I spoke with a representative and told her to put me on their no-call list, and she said that she would do so. We have received three calls since then. This morning I spoke to a representative who hung up on me as I began speaking about the problem. I dialed *69, but there is no call-back number. I called the operator to try to trace the call unsuccessfully.

I want to find some way to stop these people from calling our home, and I don't know what the next step would be in that process. Can anyone advise me?

Thank you in advance for your help,

Judy

One option is to make them work get them on the phone & babble away, ask dumb questions. tie up their time, grow their phone bill. make them pay by the way, i noticed when i looked up credit card services they've been doing this for years

SCAMMERS DO NOT CARE ABOUT DO NOT CALL LISTS they are not affiliated with any credit card company - they cannot lower your interest rates. They only want you to give them account info so they can rip you off Read this consumer information on 16 ways you can be phone scammed - from another website called 800notes - this site allows you to look up phone numbers you do not recognize and has lots of consumer protection information. from the article I noted above Offers to Lower Your Interest Rates: The calls begin with a recording that makes a tempting offer to lower your credit-card interest rates. Then you are switched to a live agent who collects from you the credit card number and its expiration, name, address, and in some cases even your social security number. The telemarketers have no intention of giving consumers better interest rates on their cards and instead use the information to commit identity theft and run up unwanted charges. Again, tracing these scam artists is difficult: they spoof the caller ID information and use numerous VOIP accounts set up using stolen credit cards. The best thing to do is hang up, report the call to FTC and warn others through 800notes.com.

Yep, dont worry what you do Credit Card Services will never stop calling. Like you, I've talked to reps before, no deal. Best thing you can do is ask them annoying questions. Usually they automatically hang up on me. But lately they've had some new people 1 gal waited 10-15 while I pretended to go look for my credit card #. Last call the weirdo even started calling me names. reporting them to the do not call list is a waste of time.
