Oh my goodness.. the phone

February 11th, 2009 at 05:54 pm

Why is everyone calling me?!?!

The phone rang like 7 times last night (between 6 and 10) and has already rang 4 times this morning (and it is just past 9:30!).

The phone is driving me nuts! I hate the constant ringing.

The worst part is most of the phone calls are junk... I got a phone call last night and this morning saying that I can lower my interest rate on my CC. They say they have made several attempts to reach me so why don't they take the hint and give up?

I was also informed last night that there is a college fair or something going on. That's nice, I don't care.

But the most annoying is the company that keeps calling to confirm an order. My dad ordered something a couple days ago online and since then they have been calling us to confirm the order. The first time they called I got their customer service number and gave it to my dad. He then called them and confirmed the order. But they won't stop calling! So I have been letting the machine pick up and screening the calls. When they call and the machine picks up, they just hang up! Arrrgh.

And I can't turn the ringers off. It is an old fashioned phone where you have to turn the numbers instead of press them. And it has no option for loudness of the ring.

I think I am going to leave for school early today. I have to sign some papers at the Admissions and Records building anyway.

    Are you on the national do-not-call list? That should cut back on some of the calls after a few months - probably not the one where you placed an offer, but I don't think the credit card or college fair calls would come through, unless you signed up somewhere to agree to have them call you.

    There is a do-not-call list? I had no idea! I think we got the college fair call because my brother is a junior in HS and will be looking at colleges soon.

    I am going to check out the do-not-call list. Thanks!
