Sick of this. I told them I am on the Do Not Call list.

Just call and no response. Have received several calls.

Lisa's posting is false. The organization she cites is associated with the University of Michigan and Stanford University. It conducts federally funded research into the American political environment using different methods of data collection. They have no connection with whomever it is making calls from this number. They do no telemarketing of any kind.
| Dana 2011-10-19 02:04:03 Unknown |
We all wanted the do not call law to mean " I am on the list ... never ever call me ". But the law only applies to direct telemarketing sales. If its not a direct sales call they can call. Sorry, but that's it.
There are other laws including laws for Cell Phones, but those don't tie in to the Do Not CAll list.

I just filed a complaint with the FTC do not call dept:

I blocked them on verizon wireless using their on-line services. They called on my cell phone - it's bad enough to get this type of call at home. I am furious. This (any survey call) should be illegal.
| Kim 2011-10-18 02:35:56 Unknown |
Called my cell phone several times in 2 days blocked the call then started getting calls from 202-677-3082. Same message will call back, tried calling both numbers neither will go through or busy.
| VeryAnnoyed 2011-10-18 01:23:43 Unknown |
Something about voter registration or survey, form what I can gather:
Got a call from this number and the message left was: "This is a public survey call, we may call back later"....the same message that was left from 202-677-3082

Usually there are two parties involved. First is usually a PAC, but perhaps it could be a research group. They are the ones who have the money and pay for the study. Then there are the lacky types who own the auto-dialers and fill the boiler-rooms with temps and make the calls.
Usually they don't want you to be able to get in contact with them because it costs them money to handle calls, complaints, maintain internal do-not-call lists etc. Since there is no law against forging a phone number, they often do that, also there are call-out only lines (different ways to do it but you can't contact them for sure).
| CowpensSC 2011-10-17 21:02:33 Unknown |
I didn't answer.
| CowpensSC 2011-10-17 20:39:57 Unknown |
I don't know what they want. I didn't answer. They best not be worrying me .

So ladies & gentlemen,
After much research, I found out who is calling us with this disguised number: 202-505-5295
Its called the American National Election Studies.
Apparently, they are exempt from the "telemarketer" list. Maybe we all should call them and tell them how we feel about receiving these calls.

This number keeps calling my CELL phone! I really want them to stop, but it is a recorded message that is taking a survey.
| Battle Angel 2011-10-17 17:12:47 Political Call |
Left message on my cell number voicemail saying it was a political survey call. They will call again...
Might as well give them a scare when they call back...
| Jayne 2011-10-17 16:07:14 Unknown |
I have limited minutes on my cell and I am tired of receiving these calls. Stop calling and bothering people.
| BONNIE WILKS 2011-10-17 14:49:04 Unknown |
WHY ARE THEY BOTHERING ME ALL THE TIME
| Charlie 2011-10-17 14:25:26 Unknown |
Caller does not leave msg....call back and get recording that says the number is disconnected.
| John B 2011-10-17 03:23:06 Unknown |
You get these calls because surveys and polls, even push-polls are allowed and don't have to pay attention to the Do Not Call List.
Sometimes they have a way you can tell them not to call in the form of a private Do Not Call list just for that org. Not sure if the CCAdvertising one will work or not
| lin 2011-10-17 02:48:02 Unknown |
Not anyone I know, wasting my cell phone time.
| Annoyed! 2011-10-17 02:21:15 Survey |
This number calls twice a day and leaves a message "this is a public service call, we may call back later"
I'm on the "Do Not Call List", why am I still getting this?!
| icewoman 2011-10-17 00:49:50 Unknown |
came across my CELL phone...NOT happy. Only give that number to family. They know its for emergency use only. I missed the call, whomever left partial voicemail, and WASTED MY minutes and money. RRRrrrr.
| dedee 2011-10-17 00:43:18 Unknown |
They are annoying! And i have blocked the number, they call on Saturday and Sunday night!
| not happy 2011-10-16 23:48:57 Unknown |
I should be glad these twits called me before eight pm (from 202-505-5295). I did not answer, but I suspect I will get more calls from them. At least I know it is some crackpot poll caller or whatnot, nice to have this service to look up who called.
| Jeff Scott 2011-10-16 23:42:34 Unknown |
I took the survey, it was a recording that asked questions about the country's state, and the future election and things like that. It only took around 2 to 3 minutes
| Frantic 2011-10-16 22:21:00 Unknown |
Called on Sunday at 5.43PM. Called twice, did not pick up. I am on the no call register.Is there no way to stop these callers? Caller ID was NATLPLTCRQ, phone number 202-505 5295.
| Larry 2011-10-14 01:30:06 Unknown |
But then you are actually giving your name and phone number to a tele-spammer.
But they are conservative yahoos, not liberal yahoos? so you can trust them? right?

Remove yourself from these idiotic calls by going to http://www.ccadvertising.biz/dnd.html

Unwanted call on my cell phone from: 202-505-5295. I did not solicit this call. I am on the Non-call list with ALL my phone numbers. This costs me MONEY on my cell! How do we stop this kind of garbage????
