Calls our home phone several times a month.  Never leave a message; don't answer if we pick up.  Just an open "boiler room" background noise line until we hang up.  We live in a small rural MN town with public utilities; no Excel Energy or any other big name energy company provides services to our town.

IT left no message

Melanie Sievert is a supervisor at Customer Link located in Duluth, MN. They're a telemarketing company that handles "customer service" for several providers including DUKE ENERGY. She actually cost me my job because she refused to call a customer back when they were demanding to talk to her. She's super rude.

If you want to file a report google "customer link duluth, mN" and then get the number and call them and ask for the MANAGER. Dave Stewaurt

If now one answers when you answer some one else picked up the call ahead of you. They call a group of numbers and speak to the first one who answers. I got the call on my cell.

They say they are updating contact info for DTE Energy ( that's what they said to me, anyway). I am in MICH. The phone number they called from is registered in Minnesota. They wanted my name, telephone number, email, and DTE Meter Number. Gosh - I think DTE has my meter number, and you just called me at my phone number, lady...... Probably a scam outfit that will change your service without your knowledge - collecting as much personal info as possible to substantiate their bogus service change. I told the woman caller, who was very polite and nice, that I would update my info directly with DTE. She gave me their number and told me I would probably sit on hold for a long time, and I could give the info to her to save myself the trouble. I thanked her and declined.

Since I am a leasing agent for a property management company, and currently have a few vacancies in the Twin Cities metro area, I answered this call at 8:23 this morning, thinking that it was someone from northern MN--relocating for school or work--responding to one of my ads.

I answered with the company name, and the caller identified himself as Paul from Xcel and requested to talk to "the person responsible for paying the bills."

I told him that that person was not available; could I take a message?

He asked when that person would be available; I said later, after 10:00.

He asked for the name of that person; I told him it was Human Resources; he demanded a specific name; I asked what this was regarding; he said he could save us money on our central air conditioning costs; I told him we didn't have central A/C; he hung up.

Called several times. Finally answered and they claimed to be from DTE Energy, then sounded like a phishing call asking to verify name, address, et al. WATCH OUT FOR THESE GUYS, THEY SEEM TO BE PHISHING. PROBABLY NOT WHO THEY SAY THEY ARE since the info they gave was not same as the info on file at DTE. Called number back and they said they are "Customer Link" a "sales and marketing" team.

(218) 740-2135 has been calling my cell phone several times a day for weeks now.  Interesting how all of the prior posts are from 2007 and this is now June 2012, and this phone number is still active.  It's agrivating and annoying as hell.

get many calls from this number day and night.  I ignore it, they leave no message.  sometimes they call 30 minutes apart.  I have straight talk and my service does not let me block  numbers.

I just got a call from 2187402135 which I have been getting for awhile now I talked to a rep and he said that they are contracted with xcel energy to call regarding the saver switch but didn't give any other info, I'm sure if I wanted that I would contact xcel directly. Hope this helps all of you

For the last few weeks I've been getting a few calls a week from this number. It will ring a few times and when I pick up there is no one on the line. I'm getting quite annoyed and frustrated and would like them to stop calling.

Yeah, so I called back this number after they have called every week day for the past two weeks.  As you all have said, the mailbox was full.  So I waited until an unusual hour of the night, Midnight eastern standard time!  Mailbox wasn't full this time and I did leave my number for them to remove it.  What's weird is that I just added this line to my family plan for business 2 months ago and they are already calling it!  Sheesh!  Anyways, the recording said it will take up to 24 hours for them to remove the number.  I'll probably get a call tomorrow, however, a call the next day will have me calling them back to seriously ream them out!  Telemarketers should just be banned altogether, they are a serious annoyance to everyone and don't care about you at all.  And they are always rude!  Screw them all!

Hang up phone calls from 218-740-2135---How about having Home Land Security investigate ??     Judging from the e-messages--I'm not the only one being annoyed by these jerks.
thanks

I have been getting calls from this number for a week now at least once a day.  The called ID says Customer Link.  I just called and left a message for them to remove me from their list but I don't have much faith that they will.

Yeah I've been getting calls from this number as well so I did a google search for it.  I'm glad I screen my calls.  I don't know anyone in Minnesota haha.

Call their 800 number and request that they take you off their list.

This is sooo annoying! I don't know what to do, as I don't want this to keep happening. It had actually stopped for a couple of weeks, and I just got another one again!

There's some decent info on there about requesting information from them that they have to provide.  If they don't provide you with requested information, you can sue them.

Dear Caller,

Please die.   TYVM.

Sincerely,

dma

These idiots call about once a day.  There's nobody there when I answer--if I hang on the line I eventually get disconnected, with the "please hang up and dial your number" announcement.  Very irritating.

My number is on a DO NOT CALL list for a reason.  I have no desire to have marketers call me and waste my minutes only to have to call them and waste more minutes to have my name removed.  This is a clear violation of being on the Do Not Call List.

I keep getting calls from this number and when I answer they say "wrong number" and hang up....SO WHY EVEN BOTHER ME ?????

Calls every day several times a day. Wish it would stop. No one is there.

I keep getting calls from this number and will not answer.  I am on the Do Not Call list and do not know how they got my number.  I want them to stop as they are calling several times a day every day.

THey call me and leave no message. Atleast 3 times a day. I do not know this number and would like it to stop. This is the second case of numbers that is done this.

I am on the DNC and they still call me all of the time does no good to try and call them back

I received a call from thia number 218-740-2135 and googled it. They didn't hang the phone up correctly and I heard them in the back ground. They are definately a telemarketer. I will continue to let it go to voicemail if they try to call again.

Got a call on my cell phone, left NO message

Just after I put myself on the Direct Marketing Association's "Do Not Mail" list, I have started getting calls from this number.

I keep getting calls from this number and they hang up when I answer.
