These people keep calling us (identified through caller ID), even though our phone number is on the do-not-call registry, and they never leave a message. I can only guess that they're some credit card company or bank or something trying to sell us more services on our account, but the fact that they never leave a message -- and sometimes call multiple times during the day -- makes it phone spam, in our opinion. | These people keep calling us (identified through caller ID), even though our phone number is on the do-not-call registry, and they never leave a message.

These people keep calling us (identified through caller ID), even though our phone number is on the do-not-call registry, and they never leave a message. I can only guess that they're some credit card company or bank or something trying to sell us more services on our account, but the fact that they never leave a message -- and sometimes call multiple times during the day -- makes it phone spam, in our opinion.
