Many home phone systems have the option to save the phone number to
'call block' or similar. If you notice the same number calling, it
may be an option for you.<br>
<br>
Calls to our home are so bad that we don't answer anything not in
our phone book or with a caller ID we recognize. Once upon a time
back when I answered the phone, I'd see how long I could keep the
person on the phone. That was really fun for the telemarketers
'doing work in my area'. I'd ask if they were the ones doing the
big house on Main Street to quickly ID how fraudulent they were as
there is no Main St anywhere near me. I thought about inviting them
to give me as estimate at the local Sheriff department address, but
never did.<br>

<div>for some time I’ve been getting calls on cells phones and
home phone offering me “lower credit card rates” and have a
limited time to reply... when I press “1” to speak to an
associate, I get a foreign being speaking almost english and
when I tell him to stop calling they hang up..these calls
are two to three times a week and sometimes twice a day.
Today I called their 800 number and got bank of america.
After three failed attempts and a call back I finally spoke
to a person and she told me it was a scam and they mask
their number and it shows BoAs 800 number. She said there
was nothing they could do... but put me on BoAs do not call
list but offered no incouragement that that would stop the
calls</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Is there anywhere I can take this to get it resolved...
I can’t seem to block the number on my home phone since it[s
a 800 number and haven’t found a way on the cells yet...
come on phone/tech/gurus... little help here</div>
