FCC Complaint

A couple of years ago I resolved I would try to stop so much junk mail from coming to our address.  By methodically requesting catalog senders (and keeping a record of the ones I had contacted) remove me from their lists, I have managed to eliminate virtually all unwanted catalogs.

I also did the same with telephone calls:  I registered (and re-registered) on Do Not Call lists, both nationally and state-wide.  That eliminated pretty much all calls except for non-profit organizations.

I have specific organizations I contribute to on a regular basis and so when I receive calls from charities I ask them to put me on a Do Not Call list.  That has worked pretty well, too.  Again I keep a list of who I've asked to stop calling me.

But there is one for-profit company, Card Services, which has repeatedly called and continues even today.  They want to help me lower my credit card rate.  That's not really a problem because I always pay the bill in full each time so I don't pay interest.

I have asked to be put on a no-call list.  I have been told that because I have a credit card that constitutes a business relationship with them.  Huh?

So when I received a call from the same people on my cell phone, I checked my list.  I had recorded ten times they have called me over the past year and a half (not very often, but annoying nonetheless because I have asked them to stop).  Since I had the dates and the numbers (from caller ID) I filed a complaint with the FCC.

I have received acknowledgement from the FCC via postal mail that they have received it.

Wonder what will happen next?
