These people just started calling me a few weeks ago and call atleast once a day starting 8:30 on the morning to 8:30 At night. My phone is on the do not call list and I don't know what they keep calling me. I used to get another number from nd all the time and now it seems like it has switched to this number. I have answered in the past and no one talks on the other line. How do I get rid of this number from calling me ?

Caller ID says "INS Benefits"

this call was a sales marketing PRE_RECORDED message, calling to sell term life insurance. This company is NOT following the no call list rules and should be reported.

This number calls and hangs up several times a day. I have tried calling back and get a recording that says sorry we are unable to take your call at this time...

Skip tracer verifying contact #.  
Remember: US Supreme Court held long ago that collectors may lie to gather information.  
Yeah, I'm calling you in FL from SD offering you a MN newspaper.

I have been away and have received the same message almost evey day for two weeks.  I live on the east coast but it may be the same company to get me to subscribe to a local paper.

HOW CAN WE STOP THEM FROM CALLING US

Twice a day for the last 2 weeks.  VAF says some kind of service notice.

I hid my phone number when calling and removed my number and then called back again and entered another number at random and they said they would remove it.  I doubt they will remove my number and it confirms that they don't have a system to stop calling you.  Either change your number or block it if you pay for that service, which is cheaper usually than the average $10 phone number change. My cell phone has a private call block and I can enter phone numbers of people I don't want calling and I will receive a message without sound that they called.  I know it hangs up the phone on them or gives an option of texting them including an option of bite me or whatever I type.  I don't leave that option for private since it could be the doctor's office and I forgot to unblock phone and the doctor on call is trying to call me. Tmobile is the cell phone company I use for this free blocking system that again, makes no sound.  You could also consider forwarding your calls to your cell phone temporarily and program those numbers to reject it.  My home number has 9 rings before voice mail and I am surprised when I still get messages from these jerks after 9 rings.  DNC list means little these days.  I signed up for Obama email even though I don't donate and after getting incredible amount of emails, I disenrolled and the emails stopped.  I don't remember if I left a phone number, but now as I think about it, I live in AZ and that is one of the next 2 primary states, so the number I called backed as blocked on my end was to a washington dc number

I just received a call from these clowns. If this the LA Times as some people think then why are they bothering us in Canada? Luckily I have the ability to block this number which I will as soon as I complete this posting.I don't need the  "DO NOT CALL LIST" as I control it myself.

Who is with me for a Class Action Lawsuit? The only thing is, how to find a lawyer.
What good is it if we have a "DO NOT CALL LIST"?

Have been called every day by this number. Just got my phone number a few weeks ago. Frustrating....

Called and no one there VAF on caller ID.

My business phone is on FB. That's how they get your numbers. Quit giving out your phone numbers!!

called several times but i don't answer it. most annoying

I have this number blocked but I still get about half a ring before the phone system blocks it. This morning they called 4 times, once with only about 15 minutes between calls. This whole thing is really goofey. It must be a computer calling generated telephone numbers, or numbers from a range table, but you would think that the programming would not be designed so that if they tried and failed they would try again in just 15 minutes. It is annoying, but when I get the call and see it blocked I have to smile and say to myself "gotcha again. Call your heart out! FYI I am located in New Mexico.

I have read through the entire posts regarding this number and have experienced the same circumstances.

I would like to know if those who have called back and entered their number to be removed from their call list were successful in stopping the daily phone calls, or did it inspire an onslaught of other telemarketers whom apparently they sold it to once they verified your number.

The answer to this will help me decide whether or not to input my number.

Many thanks!

Received a call this morning, no message...woke me up, grrrr!!!

calls come every day saying call from customer service will try again later. who and why ???????

I got the call from 605 301 7223 AND I am in Canada, SO its NOT LA TIMES! If u see this number on call display DO NOT answer. If u see this and have block number ability on ur phone, do it. To block, program number in on phone caller list then choose block caller in options.

Phoned me in Toronto Canada on Nov 30 bugging me about Toronto Star subscription. I hung up.

"this is a service verification.  We will call you back". How to stop it?

Received call on 11/16/11 from female asking to subscribe to El Paso Times in El Paso TX. Since I recently stop receiving my paper and failed to look at the caller ID first, I shared personal information with the caller. Now I regret it. I hope they do not use it to steal my identity?

These people are are a pita.

south dakota

me too

My mother has been getting calls from them. It is really upsetting her. It's nice to know she can just ignore it.

"Earthly calamantis"?  What's a calamantis? A hybrid of a calamari and a mantis?  Sounds like something in a '50s SF movie!

Protect us from all earthly calamantis.
With grateful hearts we acknowledge your constant readiness to help your fellow citizens and those devoted to you in times of need. With the assurance of being heard,we implore you to obtain God's mercy for us. Protect us from the scourge of spreading disbelief. FREE US FROM ALL EVILS AND DANGERS THAT THREATEN US FROM EVERY SIDE.
Through Your prayers, the good works which the Lord our God can rightfully expect from His servants.
Amen.

This prayers is for  caller from 605-301-7223

Please make these people stop.
