I have been on the DO NOT CALL list for over a year now.
Last night I got a phone call, didn't answer,and they did not leave a message. I traced the number and it is a telemarketer.
I called them up,told them I did NOT want them to call me and that I am on a DNC list.
I asked him why he had called me and he said "it was to renew a subscription." I said "WHAT MAGAZINE?" He said "He did not know"He also said that he could call me as I had previously been a customer of the magazine. DUH!!
I thought he did not know WHAT magazine.
I did lodge a complaint with FTC,but I would like to file suit, and wondering if a small claims docket would be fine as it is so easy.
I think it is a $1,000 violation.
So has anybody sued?
