stupid phone quit calling me

this number calls me 10 to 15 times per day and throughout the night. I am told by an automated message that it is a number that has been "disconnected", however i continue to recieve phonecalls from this number.  When i answer the call, it sounds like a fax machine. Quite frankly, i shouldn't have to deal with this and it is really bothering me.

been getting calls like everybody here and it onstar. I called them and got a grand run-around, telling me they cant help me at all since Im not an onstar subscriber....I said "oh yeah? give me your supervisor" He then told me that who ever had my phone number before me was an onstar subscriber and that their computer was trying to reach that subscriber to update his/her equipment.... I told them I didnt care about why but that they needed to do something about the calls and that there are hunderds of other people receiving these same calls and that they are making lots of enemies with this. Call 877 805 9074 or 888 466 7827 and demand to speak to a supervisor, then report them to FCC online, its easy and Ill bet you get some satisfaction

I was receiving phone calls as well from the 972-797-6421 number, sometimes as many as 5 times a day, sometimes in the wee hours of the night (like 4:30am!).

Having Googled the phone number, and finding similar threads, I decided to call my cellular provider (Verizon) and  put a block on that number for both phones on my plan.  That was done this morning.
Not 2 hours later, I received a phone call from 248-307-0817.  I Googled that number as well and found myself here.  Again, I called Verizon and had them block the number.

For other Verizon customers, you can have up to 5 numbers blocked per phone line on your plan, free of charge.  Anything after that is like $5/month per line.

Unfortunately, I have a feeling a new number will be calling me...  =(

the 972 797 6421 number is Onstar, I reported them to the FCC and also called them in plano texas, they will insist you give them your name but dont. When I told them I was reporting them to the FCC they got real nice and said they would stop calling but now Im getting the calls from 248 307 0817, im sure its them at a different location

I have been getting constantly harrassed by these same two numbers.  Same story as everyone else:  My phone is a new verizon number, and fax tones in the middle of the night from 248-307-0817 and 972-797-6421.

That is a good idea, Rich.  I also put both of these numbers as a contact and set that contact to "no ring."  Thanks for the tip.

Same story with both numbers.  248 came today.  I have a contact in my phone (yes, verizon) that i call DO NOT ANSWER.  Then set that number to do not vibrate, and ringer vol to 0.  At least i don't get bothered by them.  Rich

I have gotten calls as well from 248-307-0817 and 972-797-6421. Both are disconnected when you call them back...strange and quite aggervating

i have gotten both numbers on my phone its a real pain in the a** lol but the first call kinda scared me we were talking about ghost and stuff and i got that call and then it said it was disconected me and eveyone freaked. other than that i have verizon , i wounder if it has something to do with them???

I got phone calls from this number and the 972-797-6421 number as well but I never picked them up. I have a TracFone but I think it uses Verizon service because my voicemail is from Verizon Wireless. I looked up both of those numbers on whitepages.com reverse directory and they both came up as Unpublished numbers. The 248 number is from Royal Oak, MI from Ameritech Michigan landlines; and the 972 number is from Plano, Texas from Verizon landlines.

I have received calls from this number and one from 972-797-6421.  Both had a similar sound and both came from disconnected numbers.  I am going to some numbers listed that have helped for the other number.  If I get anywhere with them, I will report back.  12-9-08.  Does anyone else that is receiving this call have verizon?

I keep getting this fax number (248)307-0817 calling me in the middle of the night, I have gone to the national do not call list and have registered my number on there, hopefully it will work.  I already blocked one number, now im going to have to block this one

i keep getting calls from this number when i pick up it sounds like a fax machine but it also goes through on my voice mail just a high pitched screech sound. when i call back it says the number is no longer inservice

got a call from this number-called it back stated number no longer in service. How could you recieve a call from a dead phone?? Whoever it is please stop. Already blocked one fake number- don't want to do it again. It is a waste of my time.
