Telemarketer/Company Number: 616-827-7054
The Story: Keep getting calls from this number. It comes through as Grand Rapids, MI. When I answer no one responds. Calls back to this number do not go through. Would like them to stop calling me as I just don't have time for this nonsense.

The Story:
"Public Survey" calls three times a day and I answer and no one is one the other end. They just keep calling and I tried calling back and it is a dead line. VERY ANNOYING! So much for the "Do not call" list.

The Story: Numerous calls - no response on the line, no way to call them back (number won't connect). On the Do Not Call list, but heard this is political (exempted themselves - aholes). Constitutes harassment - none of their business my voting preferences.

The Story: I never pick up when I get calls like this unless the person or company is willing to leave a message. Every time they call, it always disconnects. I hate these annoying calls and I wish there was a number WE could call to insist that this practice stops. It is particularly frustrating that the caller cannot reach anyone when dialing the number back to demand that they cut it out.

The Story: I am so tired of this number calling me 3-4 times a day 7 days a week. called it back hoping to get a person on the line instead of a pre-recorded political survey....no ring, no answer. Will these a$$holes just give up already??? We are also on the "do not call" list. think I will go to donotcall.gov and file complaint.

The Story: This number of 616-827-7054 shows as a "Public Survey" on the caller ID. They have been calling me 2 or 3 times everyday. When I answer there is never anyone there - just clicks and noises and then it disconnects. I did the star 69 to get the phone number and called them back to ask them to please stop calling me but I only get a recording that "this number does not accept calls". I am already registered on the donotcall registry but I registered again today in case my old "do not call" has expired. I want these calls to stop. I think the name of "Public Survey" is a fake name anyway. Regardless, I do not want to take any survey. I am not afiliated with any political organization. I consider these calls to be a harrassment. I went to the DoNotCall.gov and registered a complaint today. I urge others to take two moments and do the same. Thank you.

The Story: I called the Michigan GOP, and got the person they've assigned to handling complaints about this number (that's how bad it's been). They gave me Strategic National's number (the one below), and after several tries got a real person. SNI claims it's not them, either - the person I got was both apologetic and very believable, and says she's been trying to deal with it, too. The best I can find is that one of the candidates in the "survey" is behind it, but not which one - the Michigan party headquarters say's they've contacted all of them, and nobody will admit to being behind it.
Leaving a do not call complaint won't help. Politicians being what they are, when the do not call law was passed they exempted themselves. There is a group at www.stoppoliticalcalls.org (don't know anything about them) that claims to be working towards blocking these calls.
