Where Can I Find Out More Information About A Telemarketer?
First of all, you can always register your phone number online with the National Do Not Call Registry (NDNCR) to limit telemarketing calls and to file official complaints. However, while this is a good idea, sometimes filing a complaint with the NDNCR or the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), is not enough to make these calls stop, nor will they provide you with any further information about the telemarketer who has been calling you.
Thus, where you need to go is a caller complaints site. This is a website that has been designed to provide you with the power to voice your opinion, as well as read the grievances of others, and even investigate the phone numbers of the irritating solicitors who call you. Best of all, it is free to file complaints and to search for information; there is no signing up involved.
You can access one of these websites by looking up "caller complaint site" in your favourite search engine. Once you are on a calling complaints homepage, you than have three options:
1 – File a complaint
2 – Browse and click on any of the top complained about phone numbers
3 – Enter the phone number of the telemarketer into the provided search box
The chances are if you have received many calls from the same number, so have many other phone consumers. Therefore, it is highly possible that others have published comments about their experience, which can help you learn more about the annoyance caller and see if someone else´s encounter was similar to yours.
That being said, remember that you should always file a telemarketing complaint of your own, regardless if one already exists or not. The more negativity that can be publicly spread about a disreputable telemarketer or scam artist, the more warning you give to other phone consumers.
