[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 299060, member: 1233"] I just hate the sheer nerve it takes to call someone and tell them you need to know about their kids, tvs, computers, etc... and they are unamerican if they say no. That part just made me see red!!! I almost never give info to anyone over the phone. And I won't go to their websites unless I started the call. If soemone wants info from me they can send the request in writing. Same for the endless fundraising calls. I tell them that we do planned giving (which we do) and if they want to be considered I will read any literature they care to send. No literature means no money. Period. My mom heard me tell someone that and now she and my dad do that also. The do not call lists apply to telemarketers but NOT to those calling from a religious or political group. All of our numbers are on the list, but it is not all it is cracked up to be. [/QUOTE]
