I have been getting these calls for over 2 months now, and I'm also on the Do Not Call Registry; Every time I'd call them back or ask to talk w/ their supervisor, they refuse and hang up; every time I'd ask which company they're with, they tell me they'll call me back and refuse to disclose who they are;
The folling #s are the ones I've received and were shown on my caller id:
(603)214-3537 <--Caller id displays Direct Solutions (rep named Selene & Greg)
(916)219-8134 <--Caller id displays Cellular Call (rep named Selene- same person)
(603)214-3599 <--Caller id displays Cellular Call (same people)
(408)651-8146 <--Caller id displays Cellular Call (same people again)
(907)977-1905 <--Caller id displays Alaska Call (rep named Selene)
(408)531-6205 <--Caller id displays California Call (same rep named Selene)
(562)289-8146 <--Caller id displays Cellular Call (same people again)

I have heard so many things, from so many different people on here.. One says that the telemarketing firm's telephone service carrier is Freedom Ring Communications (D.B.A. Bay Ring Communications); I also hear it's called Total Marketing Solutions, etc etc.. We really need to come up with something fast!

What I was thinking, is this- one of us sign up for something, build some good rapport with one of the reps, get as much info as we can, then BANG!

Class action law suit? Yes, indeed!

Q&A: The National Do Not Call Registry
Tell Me More About the National Do Not Call Registry

  1.
     Why would I register my phone number with the National Do Not Call Registry?

     The National Do Not Call Registry gives you an opportunity to limit the telemarketing calls you receive. Once you register your phone number, telemarketers covered by the National Do Not Call Registry have up to 31 days from the date you register to stop calling you.
  2.
     Who manages the National Do Not Call Registry?

     The National Do Not Call Registry is managed by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), the nation?s consumer protection agency. It is enforced by the FTC, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), and state law enforcement officials.
  3.
     Why was the National Do Not Call Registry created?

     The registry was created to offer consumers a choice regarding telemarketing calls. The FTC?s decision to create the National Do Not Call Registry was the culmination of a comprehensive, three-year review of the Telemarketing Sales Rule (TSR), as well as the Commission?s extensive experience enforcing the TSR over seven years. The FTC held numerous workshops, meetings, and briefings to solicit feedback from interested parties and considered over 64,000 public comments, most of which favored creating the registry. You can review the entire record of the Rule review at
     www.ftc.gov/bcp/rulemaking/tsr/tsrrulemaking/index.htm.

     How Does Registration Work?
  4.
     How soon after I register will I notice a reduction in calls?

     Telemarketers covered by the National Do Not Call Registry have up to 31 days from the date you register to stop calling you.
  5.
     When I register my phone number, how long until it shows up on the National Do Not Call Registry?

     After you register, your phone number will show up on the registry by the next day. Telemarketers have up to 31 days to get your phone number and remove it from their call lists.
  6.
     What if I change my mind? Can I take my number off the National Do Not Call Registry?

     You can delete your phone number only by calling toll-free 1-888-382-1222 from the telephone number you want to delete. After you contact the registry to delete it, it will be removed from the National Do Not Call Registry by the next day. But telemarketers have up to 31 days to access information about your deletion and add your number back to their call lists, if they choose to.
  7.
     If I registered by phone, will I receive a confirmation?

     No, but you can verify that your number is on the registry online at www.donotcall.gov or by calling the registry?s toll-free number (1-888-382-1222) and following the prompts for verifying that your number is on the registry.
  8.
     I received a phone call from someone offering to put my name on the National Do Not Call Registry. Should I let them?

     No. The FTC does not allow private companies or other such third parties to register consumers for the National Do Not Call Registry. Websites or phone solicitations that claim they can or will register a consumer?s name or phone number on the National Do Not Call Registry ? especially those that charge a fee ? are almost certainly a scam. Consumers may register directly, or through some state governments, but never through private companies. For consumers, the National Do Not Call Registry is a free service of the federal government.

     What About the Privacy of My Information?
  9.
     If I choose to register my phone number, how will my information be used and disclosed?

     We collect your phone number and store it in the National Do Not Call Registry so that telemarketers and sellers covered by the FTC?s rules can remove your phone number from their call lists. Telemarketers are required to search the registry every 31 days and delete from their call lists phone numbers that are in the registry. Phone numbers in the registry also may be shared with law enforcement to assure compliance with federal and state law.

     If you contact us via the Internet, we also collect your email address to confirm your registration request. We will store your email address in a secure manner, separate from your telephone number. We will not share your email address with telemarketers.

     For more information about the privacy of your information, please see our privacy policy at www.ftc.gov/ftc/privacy.shtm

     What Phone Numbers Can I Register?
 10.
     Can I register my cell phone on the National Do Not Call Registry?

     Yes, you may place your personal cell phone number on the National Do Not Call Registry. The registry has accepted cell phone numbers since it opened for registrations in June 2003. There is no deadline to register a home or cell phone number on the Registry.

     You may have received an email telling you that your cell phone is about to be assaulted by telemarketing calls as a result of a new cell phone number database; however, that is not the case. FCC regulations prohibit telemarketers from using automated dialers to call cell phone numbers. Automated dialers are standard in the industry, so most telemarketers don?t call consumers on their cell phones without their consent.
 11.
     Can I register all my family and friends?

     You should register only your own telephone numbers.
 12.
     I have more than three personal telephone numbers. How can I register all of those numbers?

     You may register up to three telephone numbers at one time on the National Do Not Call Registry website. You will receive a separate confirmation email for each number you wish to register online. You must open each email and click on the link in each one to complete the registration process. If you have more than three personal telephone numbers, you will have to go through the registration process more than once to register all of your numbers. There is a limit on the number of phone numbers you can register in this manner.

     You can register only one phone number each time you call the National Do Not Call Registry, and you must call from the phone number you wish to register.
 13.
     What happens if I register more than one number at a time online?

     You will get an email for each number you register online. You need to open each email and click on the link in each email within 72 hours to register those numbers.
 14.
     Can I register my business phone number or a fax number?

     The National Do Not Call Registry is only for personal phone numbers. Business-to-business calls and faxes are not covered by the National Do Not Call Registry.

     Will My Registration Expire?
 15.
     How long does my phone number stay registered?

     Telephone numbers on the registry will only be removed when they are disconnected and reassigned, or when the consumer chooses to remove a number from the registry.
     What If I Move or My Phone Is Disconnected?
 16.
     I moved and got a new phone number. Do I need to register the new number?

     Yes.
 17.
     Do I need to take my old phone number off the list when I get a new number?

     No. You can if you would like to, but the system will automatically remove most numbers that are disconnected and reassigned.
 18.
     What happens if my phone number is disconnected and then reconnected?

     If your number is disconnected and then reconnected, you may need to re-register. In addition, there are actions that you or your telephone company might take that could cause your registered phone number to become unregistered ? even if your service has not been interrupted (such as changing calling plans or other services, or changing the billing name on the account.) To verify that your number is in the Registry, go to www.donotcall.gov or call 1-888-382-1222 (TTY: 1-866-290-4236). Each time you re-register, telemarketers will have 31 days to take your number off their call lists.
     What If My Area Code ?Splits??
 19.
     If my area code changes, do I need to re-register?

     If the phone companies change the three-digit area code for your home or mobile phone number, you do not have to re-register it with the National Do Not Call Registry. The number with the new area code will be registered for you during the 90-day period when both the old and new area codes work. This is known as the Permissive Dialing Period.
 20.
     Do I need to delete registration of my number with the old area code?

     No. You do not need to delete the registration of your phone number with the old area code. An automated process will remove it after 90-day Permissive Dialing Period.

     Registration and My Email Address
 21.
     Why do you need my email address?

     When you use the registry?s website to put a phone number on the National Do Not Call Registry, we collect your email address to confirm your request. We will send you an email and you will need to click on the link in the email within 72 hours to finalize your registration. We also collect your email address when you request to verify your registration online so that we can email you a response to your verification request. We will store your email address in a secure manner, separate from your telephone number. We will not share your email address with telemarketers.
 22.
     Can I register online if I do not have an active email address?

     No. The online registration process requires an active email address. If you register online, we will send you an email message with a link in it. You need to click on the link in the email within 72 hours to finalize your registration. If you do not have an email address, you can register by phone
     (1-888-382-1222).
 23.
     Can I reply to the email I got when I was registering?

     No. The email address is a one-way mail service. It cannot accept incoming emails. You must click on the link within the email within 72 hours to finalize your registration.
 24.
     What if my email address changes after I register? Will I still be able to verify my registration on the national registry?

     Yes, you will be able to use your new email address to verify your phone number online.

     I?m Having Problems With Registration
 25.
     I called to register my phone number, but the message said my phone number could not be verified. Why not?

     When you call to register a phone number, you are asked to enter the number you are calling from. The system tries to match the number you enter to ?Automatic Number Identification? or ANI, which is like Caller ID for the telephone network. A small percentage of U.S. phones do not have ANI. If your phone doesn?t, the system will have trouble locating your phone number. You can register your phone number on the National Do Not Call Registry website at www.donotcall.gov.
 26.
     I called to register my phone number, but the message said that the phone number I was calling from did not match the phone number I entered. What happened?

     To register, you must call from the phone you want to register. For example, you cannot register your home phone number by calling from work.

     Also, people in certain communities ? such as senior living centers or university residences ? have phone numbers that are hidden by a PBX (private branch exchange) telephone system and cannot be matched by the National Do Not Call system. If you live in such a community, you can register your phone number on the National Do Not Call Registry website at www.donotcall.gov.
 27.
     I received an email from Register@donotcall.gov, but I don?t get a ?Registration Complete? message when I try to click on the link. What should I do?

     You may not be able to click on the link in your email from Register@donotcall.gov, or it may take you to a page that says ?Registration Incomplete.? You can complete your registration by using the ?cut? and ?paste? functions to insert the link in the email into the ?address? line on your Web browser. You must cut and paste the entire link. It is very long ? possibly more than one line of text. You cannot re-type the link.

     Will All Telemarketing Calls Stop If I Register?
 28.
     If I register my number on the National Do Not Call Registry, will it stop all telemarketing calls?

     No. Placing your number on the National Do Not Call Registry will stop most telemarketing calls, but not all. Because of limitations in the jurisdiction of the FTC and FCC, calls from or on behalf of political organizations, charities, and telephone surveyors would still be permitted, as would calls from companies with which you have an existing business relationship, or those to whom you?ve provided express agreement in writing to receive their calls.
 29.
     Are calls from political organizations or calls soliciting for charities covered?

     Political solicitations are not covered by the TSR at all, since they are not included in its definition of ?telemarketing.? Charities are not covered by the requirements of the national registry. However, if a third-party telemarketer is calling on behalf of a charity, a consumer may ask not to receive any more calls from, or on behalf of, that specific charity. If a third-party telemarketer calls again on behalf of that charity, the telemarketer may be subject to a fine of up to $11,000.
 30.
     What about telephone surveys?

     If the call is really for the sole purpose of conducting a survey, it is not covered. Only telemarketing calls are covered ? that is, calls that solicit sales of goods or services. Callers purporting to take a survey, but also offering to sell goods or services, must comply with the National Do Not Call Registry.
 31.
     My number is on the National Do Not Call Registry. After I bought something from a company, a telemarketer representing that organization called me. Is this a violation?

     No. By purchasing something from the company, you established a business relationship with the company. As a result, even if you put your number on the National Do Not Call Registry, that company may call you for up to 18 months after your last purchase or delivery from it, or your last payment to it, unless you ask the company not to call again. In that case, the company must honor your request not to call. If they subsequently call you again, they may be subject to a fine of up to $11,000.

     An established business relationship with a company also will be created if you make an inquiry to the company, or submit an application to it. This kind of established business relationship exists for three months after the inquiry or application. During this time, the company can call you.

     If you make a specific request to that company not to call you, however, then the company may not call you, even if you have an established business relationship with that company.
 32.
     Are telemarketing calls from overseas covered?

     Yes. Any telemarketers calling U.S. consumers are covered, regardless of where they are calling from. If a company within the U.S. solicits sales through an overseas professional telemarketer, that U.S. company may be liable for any violations by the telemarketer. The FTC can initiate enforcement actions against such companies.

     Other Ways To Limit Telemarketing Calls
 33.
     I?m happy to have the choice to limit telemarketing contacts, but there are some telemarketing calls I don?t mind receiving. Is there a way to allow only certain companies to call?

     Yes. If you give a company your written permission to call you, they may do so even if you have placed your number on the National Do Not Call Registry.
 34.
     If I don?t want to put my number on the National Do Not Call Registry, can I still stop telemarketers from calling?

     Yes. Even if you do not register with the National Do Not Call Registry, you can still prohibit individual telemarketers from calling by asking them to put you on their company?s do not call list.
 35.
     What is the relationship between the state do not call lists and the National Do Not Call Registry in terms of coverage?

     The National Do Not Call Registry requirements are at least as stringent as most state laws. Most unwanted telemarketing calls will be covered by the National Do Not Call Registry. States also can continue to enforce their laws, which will not be limited by the FTC. However, the FCC?s requirements impact some state laws. For information on the FCC?s rule, visit www.fcc.gov.

     Filing a Do Not Call Complaint
 36.
     When can I file a do not call complaint?

     If your number has been on the National Do Not Call Registry for at least 31 days and you receive a call from a telemarketer that you believe is covered by the National Do Not Call Registry, you can file a complaint at the registry?s website at www.donotcall.gov or by calling the registry?s toll-free number at 1-888-382-1222 (TTY: 1-866-290-4236). To file a complaint, you must know either the name or telephone number of the company that called you, and the date the company called you.
 37.
     How do I file a do not call complaint? What do I need to file a complaint?

     You can file your complaint on the registry?s website, www.donotcall.gov, using the File a Complaint page. You must know either the name or the phone number of the company that called you. You also must provide the date that the company called you and your registered phone number. You may provide your name and address, but it?s not required for you to submit a complaint. You also may call the registry?s toll-free number 1-888-382-1222 (TTY: 1-866-290-4236) to file a complaint.
 38.
     What happens to my complaint?

     Do not call complaints will be entered into the FTC?s Consumer Sentinel system, a secure online database available to more than 1,000 civil and criminal law enforcement agencies. While the FTC does not resolve individual consumer problems, your complaint will help us investigate the company and could lead to law enforcement action.
 39.
     What if I get a telemarketing call, but can?t get the telemarketer?s name or phone number?

     For law enforcement officials to take action on your complaint, they need either the telemarketer?s name or phone number, as well as the date of the call. If you want to report a do not call violation, please get that information.
 40.
     Where can I get more information?

     If you have questions or complaints regarding the Do Not Call Registry, please contact the FTC by email at dncconsumerinquiry2@ftc.gov, or by mail at:

     National Do Not Call Registry

So stop your crying dammit

I googled 916-219-8106 and found this page. My story is... tons of calls blah blah blah, rude blah... hung up on me... increased calls... and so on. The two things I did was to report it to the Better Business Bureau online complaint system at https://odr.bbb.org/odrweb/public/GetStarted.aspx

under company name put dishnetwork. It will give you a list, choose the first one on the list, EchoStar Communications Corporation. Now just follow the steps.

Second thing I did was contact dish network directly. Go to http://www.dishnetwork.com/content/about_us/do_not_call/default.aspx

This page has information about their 'do not call' policy. You can fill out the web request or phone your request by calling EchoStar at 866-668-8047. Written requests should be sent to: EchoStar Satellite LLC, Attention:  Do Not Call, P.O. Box 9008, Littleton, Colorado 80120.

wanted to sell me a dish satelite. I talked to "raven" who is a little shy, but she kept going thru her script while i talked nasty to her and then transferred me to an indian fellow who admitted to me that he likes girls and boys. I talked to another girl as well. They stated they were in wyoming. Obviously not a professional supervised call center. They ask you for your social, so i would assme they are up to no good. I doubt they have a t1 or any kind of trunk line, so if you can keep them on the line long enough then your costing them $, especially cool if your plan has free minutes! Oh and I talked to them about some lewd stuff too. Wish I recorded t for youtube. I love telemarketers, especially if they keep talking to you! I love to see how far they will go- I mean they called you, so they have the option of hanging up anytime, its not like you called them harrassed them. Lighten up, and have fun!

very interested in the class-action lawsuit. i received a call from cf solgroup 562-289-8172 my father in law told the man that he was "doing his wife" then the guy hung up... a minute later he calls from 907-977-1905 and started screaming at me about doing his wife,mind you my father in law said that, i started cursing at the b*****d and asked to talk to a manager he hung up. what he did is a legit reason to sue for harrassment and i'm sure others have had the same experience. lawen4cment@hotmail.com

The company is called Digitcom (aka Wildgate Services): http://www.digitcom.net/contact.asp

Call them at 800-464-5446.

I spoke with them just now! They knew exactly what and who I was talking about and they provide phone services TO the telemarketing firm/call center and all of those #'s are INDEED the ones they provided them with, and they are all the ones they use to call! They said they've gotten complaints all day today and all month and last month, in fact!
Call them now!

I think I was wrong, but not sure.. it might not be Telelytics after all.. check out other threads for the mentioned phone numbers i've listed on here..

I have been getting these calls for over 2 months now, and I'm also on the Do Not Call Registry; Every time I'd call them back or ask to talk w/ their supervisor, they refuse and hang up; every time I'd ask which company they're with, they tell me they'll call me back and refuse to disclose who they are;

Got one today. Was shocked to see all these responses!

I didn't answer it as they woke me up from a nap *scowl*

This stupid company has been calling me for about 4 months now!  It comes in on a phone number that I have to pay per minute usage for both incoming and outgoing calls.  It's a business line, but registered as a personal line with my local telephone company.  I am reporting this to the National Do Not Call, as I at least get a call from this company about 2X per week.

I missed the call and was curious so I googled the number.  I couldn't believe how many people have been bothered by whomever this is officially!

Ive been getting a lot of random sales calls with various recordings lately.  I got this call this evening.  I answered it because we have a cousin in Alaska.  A recording of a girl talked about "affordable satellite television".  I'm on the "Do not call registry" I wanted to get all the info I needed so that I could make a complaint.  I pressed one to talk to an agent and it disconnected me.  I guess they're going to call back another time.  I will be reporting this to the National Do Not Call Registry.  Reverse phone lookup brings up nothing.  Call it back and you get a really fast busy signal.

Missed the call.  Phone is disconnected.

If you pick up or let voice mail pick it up it will say, "Service Representative; b/c I'm confident we can save you money and improve the way you watch TV press 1 now." It is a spam call to everyones phone that is on its list.  Origin of call is believed to be Dish Network.

I get a call from this number every few days, and always at around 6am my time, way before the time I wake up. I keep my cell phone on at all times in case someone is having an emergency and needs me. I tried picking up a few times and talking to the telemarketer telling him to take me off the list. But it just keeps coming back. I've had my phone number for years and it's a good one, so I want to keep it. Can't wait to be out of contract and subsidize a new phone. Think I'm going for a smartphone that can screen phone calls and automatically disconnect based on number.

Dish Network telemarketer

Just got a call from them on my cell phone. Didn't answer, but the message left on my voicemal was this in a recorded female voice:
"...with no obligation, press 1 to be connected to a customer service representative because I'm confident we can save you money and improve the way you watch TV. Give us a chance. Press 1 now."

I received a call from this number.  My husband said that we were on the National Do Not Call List and to remove us from whatever list he had.  The man that had called, said, "Yeah, I'll take you off our F#*cking list."  I'd like to call it back, but cannot.

Just got a call from this number on my cell phone. It just said Alaska and since I don't know anyone in Alaska, I didn't answer. When I tried to call it back, a recording said "The number you dialed is incorrect". Oh, well. Yet another number on my list of annoyances.

Same thing, I did not recognize the number so I did not answer, they did not leave a message. So I tried to call back and it stated call could not be completed.

Same as the previous post. Caller id says Alaska and when you dial the number it either busy or call cannot be completed .

Let this call go through to my messages since I didn't recognize it, when I called back it said the number was disconnected!  I'm glad you had your comment on here so I know to definitely NOT answer it when it calls back Diana!!
