A very rude ebonics speaking woman called (by mistake?) the CEO of a company demanding to speak to the maintenance man.  Savvy, I drilled deeper only to receive even more intense verbal abuse from this seemingly upset woman.  Googling the phone number, I discovered the universality of the very deceptive marketing practices of this disreputable company.

Calls several times per week asking for our maintenance man by name. We are a day care center and maintenance only works part time. Caller won't leave message. very frustrating.

I took a call from a guy that was laughing with someone else when I answered the phone. He immediately asked how I was (while still laughing). He hesitated a couple of times before he finally spit out that he wanted "the name of that guy that runs maintenance." If these people are going to try to sell something to someone, you would think that they would try to be a little more professional than that. Better luck next time funny man.

Called asking to speak to maintenance man, when I said that was my position, he said "Oh sorry, I have the wrong number" and hung up.  Cannot call back from to the same number, as it goes straight to a recording.  Does anyone know the real number, or have any info on the firm behind this scam?

Very rude man claiming to be from Commercial Lightint or C.O.C. asking for the owner of our company. When I tell him we are not interested, he says "that's not what I asked you" and starts arguing with me. He has only called a couple of times as far as I know. Very annoying.

Guy calling asking to speak with our maintenance man. Wanted the maintenance man's cell phone number. Guy gets angry when I refuse to give out that information. Guy will hang up when you try to get more information about him and his company. Calls several times a day and will hang up when I answer the phone now. WHO IS THIS GUY and WHY does he keep calling?

Just got my 1st call - guy hung up on me.

Remember the Do Not Call Registry only applies to RESIDENTIAL lines - it does not apply to businesses...so if you phone number is listed in the yellow pages they can keep calling...

Female caller claimed to be with "Commercial Lighting" and said something about that we hadn't ordered from them in a while.  I asked her to repeat the name of the company and told her that I didn't recognize it.  Then I asked if I had purchased from them before and she said she was new to the region, so she didn't know (how convenient).  I said "You're in this area?" Note the area code for my region is not 813.  She said she was.  I specifically asked if she was in this town and what address, and she said she was and gave me a valid local address.  I then repeated the address back to her saying "you're at xxx?"  She started to answer yes when lo and behold the line went dead.  The only thing I could think was what took them so dang long?  I then contacted the actual company at the address she listed and advised them that some scam company is claiming to be at their address.  Normally when you start to question them, they have the good sense to get off the line in a hurry.  It's deffinitely a first that they actually gave me a local address.  She didn't even miss a beat when she rattled it off.  Creepy...

This guy called from Commercial Lighting saying we order flouresent lights from his company all the time?? I have never heard of then and have been here three years. He said oh don't worry I am new too. He said he was sending a catalog, a cooler and a pack of lights. I told him don't bother with the lights or cooler just the catalog he got mad and hung up.

Called today - began with "Yeah, remind me of the name of the guy that buys your light bulbs?  I forgot his name?"  Told him we don't have a maintenance man (never have).  Then said, well, who's the guy that buys your light bulbs.  Told him it was a gal, not a guy & that we buy them from Wal-Mart.  He promptly hung up.  Wasn?t rude to us at least.

THEY GET AROUND IT BECAUSE YOU HAVE NOT REPORTED IT!  

The Do not call registry only applies to legitimate businesses - SCAMS (CROOKS) do not follow the laws at all.  


Fact is - you can complain on these boards all you want - but UNTIL EVERYONE starts filing formal complaints with the Do Not Call Registry - NOTHING WILL EVER CHANGE AND THE CALLS WILL KEEP COMING.

Don't rely on someone else - they need more than a few complaint to start an investigation.   Don't expect to hear anything - the government does not announce when it is investigating illegal activities until they are ready to press charges

They call here 2 - 4 times a week. Sometimes 2 - 3 times a day. I have caller ID and don't recognize the number, so I don't pick up.
What ever happened to the "Do Not Call Register", which my phone number is registered. How do they get around that?

I haven't had to deal with the rude man who calls yet (I was contacted by a female from this number), but if he ever calls our office, I'm going to get in touch with the Tampacen/Tampa Bay police and see if there is anything they can do.  This individual is clearly harrassing people in ways beyond a normal telemarketer would do and there must be something that can be done.  Couldn't the police trace the location of the call and the physically send someone over to check things out? If everyone who got a call from this guy then contacted the police, I think eventually the police would have to get involved...

The caller was VERY rude.  He has called 5 times in 5 days.  The last time, I asked him to remove our name from his listing, he said that I needed to change my number because he wasn't going to stop calling.

This same place of business has called our office in Kansas City, MO as well under the number 813-514-1481.  They ask for our maintenance director.  This last time a female called, and before I put her on hold, I asked for the company name...She stated "Commercial".  After I attempted to locate our director, I went back to her and I could hear her say to another person, "I'm gonna hang up on her."  And she did.  I read about this "Commerical" business on other posts on this site...They are apparently a horrible fake marketing/scam type business filled with extremely rude associates (I thankfully haven't experienced that yet)  I will from this point forward ignore all calls from this number...PLEASE DO THE SAME! :-)

Rude guy called and demanded to speak to our maintenance supervisor, I told him we didn't have one & wasn't interested (thought it was a sales call) and I hung up on him. Now he keeps calling over and over being rude. I just stopped answering when this number appears on caller ID. FYI we are on the "don not call" list but apparently this jerk doesn't mind taking the risk of being hunted down and sued!

Charlie from "Commercial" somehow got the name of my boss.  He called and asked to speak to him.  When I asked what the call was in reference to he asked if I was my boss, when I said no, he then said, well i didn't call to talk to you I called to talk to your boss.  What a jack a**.  So, I put him on hold for a minute and came back to the line and stated that my boss would like to know what the call was in referee to.  he then said, well, i would have told him if he had picked up the phone rather than hide behind his receptionist.  Needless to say, I hung up on him.

We get 4-5 calls a day from this company we can not give out contact information and we let them know this and they will either hang up or get rude. When asked what company they are they hang up. Is there away to get rid of this company calling?

Called my office and asked for "maintenance professional". We don't have that position...so I told him that and he said he wanted to send a catalogue to "buy lightbulbs and stuff like that." I said we already had a company that we buy from. He said "Well I'm not selling anything." I said "OK, but we really don't need your catalogue because we already have a specific company that we buy from." He asked if I was the owner. I said no. He then said, and I quote, "Well I'll just call back when they get rid of you." !!!???I'd like him to call back, ya know???
