Comments:

I do not want any telemarketing calls what so ever. My telephone is for my personal and private use, I consider all telemarketing calls an invasion if my privacy. During the recent presidential elections I was flooded with recorded campaign calls. The political parties abused their privileged use of the telemarketing system. When ever I have contact with a business I let them know that I do not want any phone calls promoting their business. They are more than welcome to send information via the U.S. Mail or email if I give them my email address. I do not wish to have my day interrupted by recorded messages. Another side to the whole thing, when I am not at home my calls are forwarded to my cell phone. Every time that I receive unwanted calls it eats up my precious cell phone minutes.
