Hell no!!!! I do not want anyone to contact via phone. Let me paint a picture, I work a 3rd shift, 12am - 10am... Recieving calls in the daytime is equivalent to getting a call at 3am.... I usually go to sleep at 11 am. Now I finally have peace going to sleep. What are your suggestions with respect to getting a goodnight/day's sleep. 1) I cannot take the phone off the hook because I am an emergency contact. 2) Turn off the ringer? See point one, it can not be done. I have already been targeted by 1010xxx phone companies for using their pic services. This is not a business relationship as some might suggest. Any billing issues has to go through the LEC not the 1010xxx companies and their abuse has only begun. Companies are all ready starting to abuse the privilage by calling. I have informed many companies to not call because of my schedual. However, my requests are completely ignored. I have used the service but there is no business relationship for said 1010 companies. So, if there is an issue with a 1010 company, that means I can not call them directly. And, if they say that the LEC is reponsible for said charges, well, then that is passing the buck. Does this give me the right to start filing charges with the FCC? You open this can of worms, I will open my own nasty bunch. DO NOT OPEN THIS CAN OF WORMS.
