I USED TO GET THE CALLS TO AND ALL IT TOOK WAS FOR ME TO CALL BACK. THE FIRST CALL I RECEIVED AN  ANSWERING MACHINE. SECOND TIME ACTUALLY SPOKE WITH SOMEONE AND IT WAS THE MANAGER SHE APOLOGIZED AND SAID IF I WILL GIVE HER MY PHONE NUM SHE WILL TAKE IT OFF. I EXPLAINED TO HER THAT I BEEN CALLING BUT NEVER HAD A REAL PERSON TO PICKUP SHE EXPLAINED IF I WOULD HAD LEFT MY NUMBER AND SAYING THAT I WANTED TO BE REMOVED SHE WOULD HAD OF DONE IT. THAT THE PERSON HAS TO ASK TO BE REMOVED PLUS LEAVE THE NUMBER. SO IF YOU WANT TO BE REMOVED FROM THEIR LIST JUST CALL AND SAY YOU WISH TO BE TAKEN OFF AND DON'T FORGET TO LEAVE YOUR NUMBER.

They constantly call, usually in the morning and evening, sometimes even really early on weekend mornings. They never leave a message. Most "charities" like this only donate a small percentage of their profit to charity and keep the rest for themselves. Ignore these clowns and donate to a charity directly.

I agree. I suggested the same thing months ago.It appears by the responses (and non responses) that the latest (and most pertinent) posts are not being viewed.I wonder who could be contacted about this.Any ideas?

They call every other day and hang up when the answering machine picks up without ever leaving a message.
P.S.:
any way to get these posts to appear in REVERSE chronological order - latest item on top?

I get calls from numbers I  don't know   Just google the number and get a report    I have put in my message You have reach this number I don't accept telemarketers or any one I don't know   They also have people that like to give a credit card and say they are happy to do this DONT GIVE ANYONE ANY INFO THEY WILL HAVE INFO AND STEAL YOUR IDENTITY

They call constantly and I never answer and they don't leave a message.  We are getting more annoying calls than ever!  A lot of charity calls out there where the callers make money off of the donations and the charity gets a small portion.   So sick of it.

They've called me 3 times in 2 days on a cell # that only my family has, so I knew it was a junk call.  So here I see it's a"charity" clothing group from Chicago.   I live in PA.  Another reason I won't be answering it. They must just be dialing random #'s.  Time to report them.

I'm so sick of the BS calls!!!!

If this phoney "charity" bothers us and wastes our time we should waste some of theirs.Simply say you have something to donate,and when the truck shows up don't answer the door. I'm sure people who use this tactic would have their names removed from the calling list!

This number just called and it's Christmas Eve, when people are busy.  Charity or no Charity,
they are pests.  And if it were legit, it would say what Charity on Caler ID.  Can't something
be done about these junk calls!

Well these folks finally responded when I answered the phone after dozens of hang ups. I explained the route from Chicago to our home in west central Wisconsin and how long it would take for the trip and they OFFERED to remove us from their calling list! Now we'll see if they really understand.

If they would have been dropped them from just a little bit higher maybe we wouldn't have to put up with these annoying calls.

Their mommie's must've dropped them on their heads when they were little scammers.

It's either a scam or they have the mentally challenged making the calls,because when you DO answer all they do is hang up on you!

Charity clothing operates out of their one and only office on N Milwaukee Ave in Chicago.If they would like to send their truck up to our home in west central Wisconsin (a 4 hour trip one way) I'm sure we could find a pair of hip boots and a snowmobile suit that the poor folks in that area could use,plus send the drivers home with a large chunk of cheese to snack on during their long trip home.Unfortunately they never leave a message on any of their frequent calls!

Constantly calls but never leaves voice message (but always stays on long enough to leave a message with a dial tone).

It shows up as "Charity C" on my caller ID. They've called five times in the past three days; twice today starting at 8:09am. They've never left a message.

If this is truly charity Clothing do not donate to this charite.  they are rated F by the BBB.   Take your clothes directly to Goodwill, this Charity Clothing is not Goodwill.

"Annoying and Rude" Two red flags that say that they aren't a true charity.

Calling every day, and kind of late / early. 9 am on a Saturday morning isn't obscene, but some people like to sleep in on the weekends.

If this is the same "Charity Clothing" that used to call us constantly at our last place, I read that the donated items are resold and charity only get a portion of the proceeds. This could be a different place, but either way personally I'll play it safe and ignore the annoying calls and donate directly.

this is very annoying....calls all the time..those people have NO life....never leave a message...good thing, I will not listen anyway!!!!! Charity clothing ????? If it is, sorry....but I will certainly not give anything to them this way...too  annoying and rude...they don't care about your life...they want you to be really really miserable all the time

Called again at 7:00 pm.  Did not leave a message.  I guess they never learn.

Called again at 6:30 pm.  These people never leave a message.

Further searching showed that this was a call from a charity clothing pick up service in Chicago that we have NEVER used.  Stop calling!!!

Called at 8:00 am!!!  Are these people nuts??!!  Did not pick up because we didn't recognize the number.  Left no message.

Called on 11/6/2012 at 10:40 AM and never left a message.  Wish they would stop calling!!

Wow, i'm glad i picked up -- it IS a goodwill charity clothing service and at this time of year (Near winter) I am GLAD they called so i can help so many w/ what i can give...  Am glad you guys left this info here otherwise I'd not have answered!  :)  They JUST called as i was looking the number up!  LOL...  (they called last night too)...  So thanks, i love 800Notes and everyone who takes the time to put this stuff out there !!!!

If this is truly Charity Clothing, they should say so. I would probably answer and have some clothes for them.  But if they say anything else, I will not answer.
